Question

What does the word "concurrent" mean in the context of federalism?

Answer 1

Concurrent means “at the same time.” they are those that both the federal and state governments share simultaneously 

Answer 2

Answer:

Power exercised at the same time, by Federal and States-Provinces.

Explanation:

We find the word concurrent used in the term Concurrent Powers, which defines a federal system, because concurrent powers mean the power that is exercised by a federal government but at the same time, it's also exercised by local governments.

So, there is a separation of powers in different levels of jurisdiction.
