Answer 1

Answer:

The term used by Bowman and Kearney that refers to the ability of government to respond effectively to change, to make decisions efficiently and responsively, and to manage conflict is capacity.

Explanation:

The main argument of the 'Bowman and Kearney' text about 'state' and 'local governments' is that State and Localities have the ability to play major roles   in the federal system of  U.S.

Capacity is the proficiency of the government to respond to any change successfully and to make responsive decisions. They also can manage conflicts in their capacity. State and local governments are very important  in the current structure of America as they effect the citizens on daily basis.
