Does federalism lead to the separation of single states?

Question

Federalism involves a great deal of **power sharing**, both at administrative and governmental levels. Federalism accepts the concept called '***right to self determination***' to varying degrees, including '***the right to secession***'. The right to secession has long created doubt in the minds of many that federalism leads to separatism. Is there significant evidence to substantiate the proposition that **federalism** inevitably leads to the separation of single states?

Answer 1

It does not include a right to secession but it does include a right to rebellion.

Once a contract is entered into it is binding. As Lincoln said. when your state secedes what about the minority that lives there and didn't want to? what about those who depended on the preservation of their rights by the Constitution?

Stares are not in a treaty situation.
