Ending Federalism As We Know Itpublished in Jacobin
The COVID-19 pandemic has shook up what many of us had though about Federalism and the powers granted to States. On one hand, a well-executed federal response would have been the most powerful action to fight the spread of the virus.

Philip Rocco reviews a new book by Daniel Allen, "The Divided States of America: Why Federalism Doesn't Work" which tackles these difficult questions.
