Karpovich O.G. Formation and characteristics of the modern model of federalism in India

Abstract: This article is dedicated to the peculiarities of formation, as well as the analysis of the current state of Indian model of federalism. The present research is the Indian federalism, which is understood as a form of government of modern India, and the political and historical trends and patterns in the formation of India's special (private) model of federal state. The subject of this study is the forms, methods and tools of formation of federal relations in modern India. The goal of this study is to identify the features of the formation and characteristics of the modern model of Indian federalism. The methodological basis for the research is the systemic, structural, functional, comparative political approaches, methods of analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, observation. The author draws attention to the fact that the India’s model of federal state is currently one of the most successful implementations of the principles of federalism within the highly organized, ethnically and religiously diverse complexly structured societies. Federalism provides the peace and prosperity of the country with nearly half billion population. The Indian model of federalism is asymmetrical and has a cooperative nature; it is based on cooperation between the center and the regions, as well as on building vertical and horizontal linkages and finding compromises. All these features of Indian federalism ensure that India progressively moves forward.
