Talk:Dual federalism

Revision
I like the work done about a month ago, but it reads very one-sidedly, and makes some lay mistakes (which I'll keep correcting as I find them). For example, no mention is made of the transition of away from the moniker "dual federalism" in the shift of the debate toward state "police power" (as first raised in City of New York v. Miln), the extent of that police power, and the debate to this day over the existence, if any, and extent of federal police power (such as in Champion v. Ames). Dual federalism just didn't end and disappear after the Civil War. More like the argument pivoted and the jargon got changed. Any other opinions and discussion are welcomed. --Foofighter20x (talk) 18:33, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

Observations

 * Has anyone noticed the introduction makes the topic of "dual federalism" sound alive and well but get to the bottom of article and it says the concept is "dead"? I wish this article could be re-written in an intellectually more honest way. It needs a more neutral point of view. -- 47.145.171.223 (talk) 16:22, 5 March 2018 (UTC)

Tautological
Dual is already stated in the word federal itself. Saying "dual federalism" is redundant, like, 'two dualism.'

If there were no political subdivisions, it couldn't be called a federal government, because it would be a unitary government.

Skimming the reference list, I was surprised the first citation to use the redundant 'dual federalism' was an article written by one of my undergrad political science professors, Cliff Staten. He wasn't the university's constitutional law professor. He is a noted expert on Cuba, though. 71.64.204.110 (talk) 21:30, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
 * The fact that another form of federalism (cooperative) exists says otherwise to the claim of the term being redundant. 104.175.78.152 (talk) 02:58, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
