Jahrbuch des Föderalismus 2025

The global rise of populist movements has occupied both politics and academia for quite some time. By contrast, the interplay between populism and federalism has so far received little attention. The Yearbook of Federalism 2025 therefore devotes this year’s focus to the question of whether federal structures provide a fertile environment for populist forces or whether, instead, they are particularly well suited to curbing them. Eleven contributions offer insights from a range of countries.
In addition, the Yearbook presents readers with a further twenty-three contributions that provide an up-to-date and concise overview of various aspects of federal and regional structures and politics.
