|
| Answer» The difference between Coming Together and Holding Together type of federations are as follows: | \t\t\tComing Together Federalism involves\xa0independent states coming together\xa0on their own to form a bigger unit.In Holding Together Federation, the large power or\xa0country decides to divide its power\xa0between its constituent states and\xa0national government.In this type of federation, units try to increase\xa0their security by pooling sovereignty\xa0and retaining identity.In this type of federation, there is\xa0the absence\xa0of pooling sovereignty and retaining identity. In fact in this federation the central government subordinates over the constituent units.All the\xa0constituent units usually have equal\xa0power and are strong vis-a-vis the\xa0federal government in the Coming Together Federation.The central\xa0government tends to be more powerful\xa0vis-a-vis the states in Holding Together Federation.Sometimes\xa0constituent units of the federation\xa0have unequal powers. For example,\xa0in India, Jammu and Kashmir have\xa0been granted special status.United States of America, Switzerland, and Australia are examples of Coming Together Federations.India, Spain and Belgium are examples\xa0of Holding Together Federations.\t | |
