Abstract
It has been suggested in the previous chapter that related changes in the international and domestic environments within which public policy develops have produced, alongside the internationalization of the policy processes, a congruent ‘localization’. This development presents policy makers both with challenges, as local interests and politics intermingle to an increasing extent with those in the international environment, and also with resources which can be mobilized in varying ways to manage the resultant complexity and to achieve policy objectives. In the context of federal political systems, these developments have built on the characteristic internal diplomacy between levels of government and added to them an international dimension in the continuing process of determining the appropriate role and responsibilities of governments in a political environment marked by boundary fluidity and issue complexity.
