“. . . handily dispenses with approaches treating federalism as an
independent variable with relative constant causal effects.”—Gerard
W. Boychuk, University of Waterloo

“This book presents an innovative explanation on how federalism
impacts on the development of welfare states. By combining
institutionalist and society-centered approaches, the authors
challenge widely accepted assumptions. Anyone interested in
comparative federalism and social policy will find their study
inspiring.”—Arthur Benz, Technische Universität Darmstadt
*Arthur Benz*
“This is a challenging book. It lays down a methodological
challenge to studies that see federalism—or any other political
institution—as a variable with an average effect across cases. The
authors advocate an alternative approach, configurational analysis,
which they illuminate in examining four federations. Substantively,
the book presents a fascinating analysis of the difference between
federations with stateless nations and those without. A must-read
for anyone interested in institutional analysis.”
—Keith G. Banting, Queens University
*Keith G. Banting*
"It represents a challenging and highly important contribution to
federalism scholarship, though equally to a wider variety of social
science research strands. Indeed, one may hope that the authors and
other scholars take this approach in analyzing additional federal
cases as well as their nexus with other policies."
