| Summary |
"O Federalismo" by S. de Magalhães Lima is a political treatise written in the late 19th century. This book delves into the principles and theories of federalism, arguing for its adoption as a more just and effective system of governance compared to centralized states. It focuses on the concept of maintaining autonomy for different states or regions while forming a cohesive governance structure that can accommodate diversity within a nation. In the text, Magalhães Lima posits that federalism is the ideal solution for the varied nationalities and cultural identities in Europe and specifically in the Iberian Peninsula. He explores historical examples, advocating for a system that preserves the autonomy of local governments while promoting mutual cooperation among them. The book critiques the failures of unification attempts and emphasizes the necessity for a federal approach to ensure both stability and representation. Ultimately, it envisions a future with a confederation of states that respects regional identities, aiming for democracy, equality, and peace across nations.
