 ral\, networked\, and open: over the past\ndecade\, each has been offered 
 as a description of the ‘new\nfederalism’.  Now entering the second decade

 g power\, the impact of post-stimulus fiscal\nrestraint\, the progress of 
 contested and partial senate reform\, the\ncontinued rise of global city r
 egions as engines of the economy\,\nthe growing importance and impending c
 lash of energy and\nenvironmental policies\, and the further implementatio
 n of\nfunctional and symbolic asymmetry.\nJames Bickerton is Professor of
