What is the meaning of centrality?

Answer:

In Government, "centrality" refers to the level of concentration of power at the highest level. For instance, the more power a nation's Federal government has versus its states or provinces, the more "centralized" that government system is.

This is not to be confused with "centrist" which, in reference to political philosophy, refers to a position that is neither liberal nor conservative, but rather in between the two.
