“This involves interactions and common
programs among the 50 states.”
“This is viewed as the traditional form
of federalism as it sees the actions of the national government as supreme
within their constitutional sphere.”

Horizontal and Vertical Federalism refers to how much power and control
the Federal government would have over the States and their relationship and
boundaries. In Horizontal Federalism the Federal government power is limited, does
not have direct
power over the States, and the Sates are separate and politically independent
from it. However in Vertical Federalism, the power between the Federal Government
and the states are vertically distributed. The Federal government is on the top
of this vertical line, then the states, and local governments.
