Federalism as the root of the postcolonial unity. Argentinian case

Abstract

the particular physiognomy that federalism has presented throughout its historical and geographical expansion makes it possible to draw a parallel between the outstanding features of its conformation in the 17th century in the United States of America, as the original model, and the expansion that the phenomenon has generated in Ibero-America and, in particular, in the Argentine Republic. From this, and the political and philosophical characteristics that developed around it, it is relevant to develop the details that defined the format adopted by Argentine federalism.
