  • POSC 228 Power and the American Presidency 6 credits

    The power of the executive branch is  loosely defined in the second article of the U.S. Constitution. While the presidency was designed to be clearly subordinated to Congress, presidential has exploded over time and has reshaped American politics around presidential prerogatives. Today, the other branches of the government defer to the president, while voters look to the president to solve a snowballing set of public problems. However, citizen expectations of the president have outpaced even the growth in executive power, which has simultaneously upended the constitutional order while still leaving the average American chronically dissatisfied with government in Washington.  This course is designed to explore the dynamics, the drama, and the intrigue associated with the rise of the imperial presidency in America.
