The study aims to clarify those forms and pinpoint their advantages and disadvantages. It also attempts to understand the best form of the federal state among those forms in terms of (a) the predominance of advantages over disadvantages، and (b) in terms of the suitability of this form for the developing world in general and for the countries of our Arab nation in particular.

The study concluded that the federal form of the state best fits the developing world، especially in our Arab societies، due to the multiple advantages offered by this form، mainly mitigating the risk of emergence of dictatorships، equitable allocation of power and wealth، which leads to the establishment of a democratic regime with equitable citizenship in which people of all groups، genders، and ethnicities enjoy equal rights and are subject to fair laws in various duties.
