I am going to begin this essay by defining federalism. From defining federalism, I will then be looking at how federalism is linked to the constitution and the structure of government. Following will be a paragraph on the roles of both federal and state powers within a federalist government. Continually, I will discuss my definition of federalism dynamics, and in doing so I will begin to discuss the process of government. Furthermore, I will identify and outline the process-oriented definition process of Intergovernmental Relations (IGR), continuing the discussion of the process side of government. Moreover, I will explain how IGR is linked to the concept of fragmegration and to interactions between government and citizens. Lastly, I will discuss

To begin in defining this process I should mention Denis Scheberle whom defines to us four types of these working relationships. The first type of working relationship is defined as non-existing, whereas the relationship does not stand. Secondly there is a relationship that she defines as coming apart with avoidance, which can describes as a dysfunctional governmental relationship. Thirdly, is a relationship that she describes as coming apart with conflict. Scheberle’s last working relationship, is a relationship where you come together but autonomously, meaning that you are come together under self-government or at least a degree of self-government. These relationships working together go through the problem solving system. This system first starts with information; this information is then turned into problems with information. Next, the problems then get pushed to the political actors who input their information into government. Then, the government generates outputs and outcomes to this problem based on information they have on the problem; outputs meaning theories to fix the problem and outcomes, which are the actions generated from the outputs. Continually, the outputs from the government become consequences weather intentional or unintentional. When finally, the consequences then circle back around to generate more problems, and the system then
