Question

which type of federalism has power shifted from the federal to the state government?
○ cooperative
○ new
○ dual
○ creative

Explanation:

To determine the type of federalism with power shifting from federal to state governments, we analyze each option:

• Cooperative federalism involves shared functions, not a shift to states.
• New federalism (also called "devolution") specifically aims to transfer power from the federal government back to state and local governments.
• Dual federalism has separate, distinct powers for federal and state, no major shift.
• Creative federalism focuses on federal initiatives, not state power gain.

So new federalism matches the power shift to states.

Answer:

new (the option labeled "new")
