Territorial politics is one of the most dynamic areas in contemporary
political science. Rescaling, new and re-emergent nationalisms, regional
devolution, government, federal reform and urban dynamics have
reshaped the architecture of government at sub-state and transnational
levels, with profound implications for public policy, political competi-
tion, democracy and the nature of political community. Important policy
fields such as health, education, agriculture, environment and economic
development are managed at new spatial levels. Regions, stateless nations
and metropolitan areas have become political arenas, contested by old
and new political parties and interest groups. All of this is shaped by
transnational integration and the rise of supranational and international
bodies like the European Union, the North American Free Trade Area
and the World Trade Organization. The Comparative Territorial Politics
series brings together monographs, pivot studies, and edited collec-
tions that further scholarship in the field of territorial politics and pol-
icy, decentralization, federalism and regionalism. Territorial politics is
ubiquitous and the series is open towards topics, approaches and meth-
ods. The series aims to be an outlet for innovative research grounded
in political science, political geography, law, international relations and
sociology. Previous publications cover topics such as public opinion,
government formation, elections, parties, federalism, and nationalism.
Please do not hesitate to contact one of the series editors in case you
are interested in publishing your book manuscript in the Comparative
Territorial Politics series. Book proposals can be sent to Ambra Finotello
(Ambra.Finotello@palgrave.com). We kindly ask you to include sam-
ple material with the book proposal, preferably an introduction chap-
ter explaining the rationale and the structure of the book as well as an
empirical sample chapter.

Preface
The idea for this edited volume is twofold: First, it aims to provide a
comprehensive collection of cutting-edge trans-Atlantic contributions to
the diverse research perspectives on governing and governance in mul-
tilevel systems that are meanwhile encompassed by the umbrella notion
of ‘multilevel governance’ (MLG). Originally, the notion of MLG was
developed with the aim of describing and analysing policy-making in the
EU, but the concept was gradually enlarged to, for example, research
on federalism, decentralization and regionalization or transnational net-
works. Meanwhile, this research tradition has come of age, the first influ-
ential publications dating back nearly two decades, and its theoretical,
conceptual and empirical advances are considerable. Thus the prolifera-
tion and differentiation of MLG research provides a worthwhile occasion
to assemble a selection of new contributions representing the state-of-
the-art in its different fields of application.
Second, this volume is also inspired by and builds upon the intellec-
tual opus of Arthur Benz, one of the most prominent and pioneering
scholars—a ‘leading light’, as one of the anonymous reviewers to this
book proposal termed it rightly—in both the field of MLG and the com-
parative analysis of governing in multilevel systems. To this end, the
volume brings together a selection of his academic companions whose
recent research together reflects the state of the art in MLG.
Research related to MLG has also grown tremendously with a view
to the cross-over to other fields such as comparative federalism, institu-
tional and constitutional change, or challenges of democratic legitimacy

federalization and de-federalization, and economic integration in multi-
level systems. He is principal investigator of two projects funded by the
Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC):
“The Politics of Federal Reform: Australia, Canada, Germany and
Switzerland since the 1990s” (2016–2020) and “IMPoRT: Investigating
Multilevel Politics through Research on Trade” (2017–2020).

The Manner of Shaping the Ends of the Canvas to Fit over the Canoe Ends
The canvas is put on with marine glue, the black kind being the
best for this particular purpose. Before gluing the canvas, lay it
smoothly on the hull and trim so that it will fold nicely at the stems,
as shown in Fig. 13. Melt the glue in a can over a moderately hot fire
and spread it on one side of the canvas with a stiff brush. Of course,
the glue will be too thick to spread evenly, but be sure to apply it as
evenly as possible, and touch every bit of the canvas with a fairly
heavy coating of glue. Lay the glued canvas in place, and iron with a
moderately hot flatiron. This melts the glue, and the canvas will
adhere smoothly to the planking. Finish by tacking the edge of the
canvas along the edge of the gunwales, and fold the canvas as
smoothly as possible at the stem, and tack in place, running the line
of tacks exactly down the center line of the stem.
The stem bands may be made from wood if desired and bent to
shape, but the brass oval stem or bang iron, ³⁄₈ in. wide, makes a
stronger and better finish. The wood stem band should be about ³⁄₈
in. square, and rounded on the outside. Put this on with 1¹⁄₄-in. brads
and fasten the brass band with ³⁄₄-in. screws.
The outside keel may or may not be used, according to
preference. It strengthens the canoe to a certain extent and keeps
the bottom from many a scratch while pulling out. The usual outside
keel is about 1 in. wide and ¹⁄₂ in. thick, of oak or ash, and tapered at
the stems to the width of the stem bands, which are screwed on over
it. The most serviceable keel is about 2¹⁄₂ in. wide in the center, and
tapers to fit the bands at either end. When made of ³⁄₄-in. oak, or
ash, it makes a splendid protection for the bottom of the hull,
especially when the craft is used in rocky waters. Unlike the narrow
keel, the flat keel makes the canoe easier to turn with the paddle, but
any form of keel will add several pounds to the weight of the craft
and is for this reason often omitted.
