    Federal coalitions in India: Strategic calculations and revolving-door partners
    ( 2016-06-01) Kailash, K. K. ; Arora, Balveer
    The lack of stability of political affiliations has been a recurrent theme in studies on political parties in India. Initially, this concern was voiced in terms of the defections of legislators from the party on whose ticket they were elected. With the advent of federal coalitions, shifting affiliations took on a new dimension, with parties themselves moving between different coalition fronts. This has often been seen as some form of idiosyncratic and undesirable behaviour and linked to the spectre of an ungovernable India by alarmists in search of supposedly more stable arrangements. We explain this party mobility by highlighting the federal dimension and its impact on party competition.

    Indian Federalism
    ( 2013-09-01) Arora, Balveer ; Kailash, K. K. ; Saxena, Rekha ; Suan, H. Kham Khan
    This chapter examines research writing about key themes related to federalism in India, including multilevel federal design and the impact of the changing party system on the operation of the federal system. It discusses the complexities of interaction between different levels of government and describes the use of different forums for interaction to manage conflict and tensions since 1998. It also evaluates the impact of liberal economic policy regime on the traditional patron-client relationship between the centre and the states as the latter contend for patronage under various central schemes.
