Unlike many previous books on the constitution and the president, the contributors to this volume are political scientists, not law professors. Accordingly, they display political scientists' concern with structures as well as power, with conflict between the branches of government as well as their functional separation, and with political prescription as well as legal analysis. Underlying the entire volume is a persistent attention to the nature of executive power and its particular manifestation in the American system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart One introduces the foundations that underlie contemporary issues, including the famous James Madison-Alexander Hamilton debate over the powers of the presidency. Contemporary political and scholarly controversies, which are the subjects of Part Two, include the constitutionality of the War Powers Resolution of 1973, the legislative veto, executive privilege and secrecy, the character of the presidency, presidential selection, and the nature of executive power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe essays in \u003cem\u003eThe Presidency in the Constitutional Order\u003c\/em\u003e represent some of the most cogent thought available about the highest elected office in America, and the themes of the volume continue to be timely and provocative.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54260095648088,"sku":"9781412810784","price":65.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781412810784_8aa71b23-79f7-4d07-9786-e5000b676df9.jpg?v=1779427817","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/presidency-in-the-constitutional-order-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
