Federalism caused controversy in U.S. history primarily due to the tension between state and federal authority. Debates over the balance of power often led to conflicts over issues such as slavery, civil rights, and economic regulation. States' rights advocates feared federal overreach, while proponents of a stronger central government argued for a unified national policy. This ongoing struggle has shaped American political discourse and contributed to significant historical events, including the Civil War and various civil rights movements.
