What does the evolution—and growth—of executive power in foreign affairs and international development tell us about contemporary challenges? How do presidents shape foreign policy, what constrains their choices, and what does that mean for the role of the U.S. in the world? Join for a conversation on the evolution of executive power with Sebastian Schmidt (Associate Professor of Political Science at JHU), Kristin Wells (former attorney for U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Foreign Affairs, USAID, and the Peace Corps) and Denise Dresser (SNF Agora Visiting Faculty and a leading Mexican political analyst), moderated by Mary Bruce (JHU SNF Agora Institute).
This event is part of our series "First 100 Days, From Home to Abroad," examining the effects of U.S. presidential leadership across the U.S. and beyond. The series is organized by the SNF Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins in partnership with the SNF Paideia Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the SNF Ithaca Initiative of the University of Delaware's Joseph R. Biden Jr. School of Public Policy & Administration.
