Republic of South Africa
Describes the origins, development, & operations of South Africa's Constitution. South Africa is a distinctive case as its Constitution does not use the term "federalism," nor does the country identify itself as a federation. Nonetheless, South Africa's Constitution is noteworthy for other federal countries for the way power is distributed among three branches of government (national, provincial, & local) & for its direct expression of tenets of cooperative government.
