Cooperative Federalism

Cooperative Federalism is a political system where national, state, and local governments work together to solve problems and implement policies. Unlike dual federalism, where each level of government operates independently, cooperative federalism emphasizes collaboration and shared responsibilities. This often involves joint funding for programs, like education or infrastructure, and requires coordination between different government levels. The goal is to enhance efficiency and effectiveness in governance, ensuring that public needs are met through a unified approach rather than isolated efforts. This model reflects a more integrated relationship among various government entities.
