Answer to Question 2

Dual federalism is the theory that the national government and the state governments are coequal sovereigns. The national government is supreme only when its jurisdiction is explicitly granted by the Constitution. Hierarchical federalism is the theory that the national government is supreme to the state governments. The powers of the national government are read broadly, and the Tenth Amendment is read as not granting any specific powers to the states.
