Formally, [federalism] would appear to exist when the following features may be found in a political entity: (a) a division of powers between central and regional governments; (2) a certain degree of independence between central and regional governments; (3) direct action on the people by the central regional governments; and (4) some means of preserving the constitutional division of powers. In its practical functioning, federalism is characterized essentially by the political interdependence of the central regional authorities. In the background, there are numerous other factors - sociological, political, economic - that may explain the existence of such characteristic features in federal entities.
