Federalism refers to the constitutionally allocated distribution of powers between two or more levels of government in the modern nation-state system. Many scholars who have studied the Indian constitution in depth defined it as federal with a strong unitary bias to preserve the unity and integrity of the nation.

The idea of federalism has been present on the public platform as a serious matter of debate for quite some time. Although a set of academia and political leadership claims that the concept has strengthened over time, defying all odds, serious concerns over the “attack” on the federal
structure of the country also appear on the table. The weakening of federal principles, in terms of excessive and relentless encroachment of the union government, has led to a conflict of interest with the state government. All the recent major political developments in the state of Kerala in terms of political exchanges between the office of the governor and the state government concerning various policy matters question the relationship between the center and the state. In this context, this seminar discusses the cooperation, questions, and challenges of Indian federalism.

The topics may include, but are not limited to, the following themes:

• Changing Nature of Indian Federalism: Recent Trends
• Federalism and the Welfare State
• Federalism and Regional Autonomy
• Cooperative Federalism and New Education Policy
• The Role of the Governor in Indian Federalism: Questions and Challenges
• Fiscal Federalism
