Imagine a country with an ethnically heterogeneous population. The different ethnic groups are geographically clustered so that if you consider particular areas of the country in isolation, they have relatively homogeneous populations. If such a country were to adopt a federal system, which type of federalism would you expect it to adopt

Respuesta :

Answer:

D. incongruent and asymmetric federal system.

Explanation:

There is incongruous federalism when the overall population of the administrative units varies between the units and the nation as a whole. Asymmetric federalism occurs because certain administrative entities have more comprehensive powers in relation to the central government. It is contrary to symmetrical federalism, in which there is no differentiation between constituent parts. As a consequence, it is often suggested as a response to the discontent that occurs as a consequence of cultural and ethnic disparity, when one or two constituent units have substantially different populations.
