註釋This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. The lines of authority between states and the federal gov¿t. are, to a significant extent, defined by the U.S. Constitution and relevant case law. In recent years, however, the Supreme Court has decided a number of cases that would seem to re-evaluate this historical relationship. This report discusses state and federal legislative power, focusing on a number of these ¿federalism¿ cases. The report does not, however, address the larger policy issue of when it is appropriate ¿ as opposed to constitutionally permissible ¿ to exercise federal powers. Contents: Powers of the States; Powers of the Federal Gov¿t.; The Commerce Clause; The 14th Amendment; The 10th Amendment; 11th Amend. and State Sovereign Immunity; The Spending Clause; Conclusion.
