520 3 _aFederalism involves allocation of powers between units of government at different geographic levels. In local areas, changes in relationships between units of government may be effected through incorporation or disincorporation, anenxation, formation of new layers of government, or interjurisdictional agreements. It may be difficult for residents who seek change to achieve it through alteration of jurisdictional boundaries or intergovernmental hierarchical relationships, however, they may gain similar benefits through intrajurisdictional arrangements such as neighborhood organizations. Such strategies of change from within are common,however, in an interesting variation, failed efforts at forming new jurisdictions through secession from the City of Los Angeles have ocurred during startup of a neighborhood program intended to gove greater voice to subjurisdictional areas. The article examnes this situation, suggesting that formation of intrajurisdictional units may operate as an alternative form of local federalism.
