Summary/Abstract: This article pertains to the first stage of a structure of American Federalism. American stathood, although characterised by a very durable Constitution, has changed according to the political and social circumstances. In consequence, it is very important to distinguish between various models that have been created since the English colonies had been established. The very first stage – dual federalism – is here analised in terms of following aspects: influence of puritan and contractual thought, first confederations, federal and state relations and judicial decisions until the year of 1860.
