The COVID-19 pandemic emerged as a global challenge, a virus spreading relentlessly, transcending territorial boundaries. Countries worldwide have adopted diverse strategies to mitigate the multifaceted consequences of this pandemic. This essay explores the factors within federal systems that may influence their success or failure in addressing this crisis. Additionally, it examines the performance of political leaders at the intergovernmental and subnational levels.
American Federal Systems and COVID-19 delves into the responses of five American federations: Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, and the United States. It employs an analytical model, grounded in two dimensions: institutional design and political agency. This study aims to demonstrate how the interplay between federal design and political leadership approaches can yield distinct policy responses to confront the formidable challenge posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
By expanding the current theoretical and empirical lens, American Federal Systems and COVID-19 offers valuable insights into effective and ineffective actions implemented by these federations. It sheds light on the challenges of addressing boundary-spanning intergovernmental complex problems, which are likely to persist in the foreseeable future. This essay serves as a crucial resource for policymakers, scholars, and stakeholders seeking to navigate the complexities of responding to global crises.
