Clan Federalism in Somalia
摘要
Somalia is a country where decentralization realizes from above (by initiative of clan's elites). Federalism is a way of achieving political goals for Somali clans. This is a country that not only has a constitutional name, but also politically strives (even if not very successfully so far) to become a federation, because for it this, in fact, is the only opportunity to save itself as a political, economic, social integrity. The diversity of the Somali administrative-territorial palette is dizzying, but if this swinging state manages to survive, it will be exclusively in a federal guise.
