Federal agencies play a big role in deciding federal policies and whether they override state laws. The concept of "administrative federalism" looks at how agencies can do this better.

Changes to the administrative system can impact how laws are made and checked for fairness. These changes might make us choose between federalism and separation of powers. The article compares different proposals for administrative federalism and how they affect these two aspects of government.
