American Seminar - Presidential Power - Strategies of Governance
Charles Cameron
TH, 1:30-4:20 pm
This course examines how presidents use power, focusing on the strategic context of the presidency and the tools of presidential governance: what they are, how they work, how to use them effectively, and with what consequences. The emphasis is on the "nuts and bolts" of what modern presidents do. Students conduct case studies of presidential power in action.
