Research Abstract |
In Germany the principle of subsidiarity works between federation and Land, and between municipalies. Constitutional Law provides the principle in the Articles 72 and 74. The main area the principle works is where the federation doesn't have the exclusive comptences. In the European Community the principle of subsidiarity has been introduced by the Maastricht Treaty. The principle in the EC also works where neither the community nor the member states has exclusive comptences. In Japan which has not federal system, the competences have been excercised fuctionally. So the princinpie of subsidiarity seems to work well in Japan.
