Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review"Zachary Callen and Philip Rocco have assembled an impressive collection of articles that represent the important insights into the Trump presidency that APD scholars can provide. The topics and approaches of the contributors to this volume are diverse, but the book's chapters collectively shed fresh light on four classic themes in the APD literature: presidential leadership, the administrative state, policy feedback effects, and the politics of race. Many of the authors draw on seminal works in APD, but they employ these works to show how the Trump presidency complicates or challenges what we thought we knew . . . [F]or anyone interested in placing the Trump presidency in a larger historical context
American Political Development and the Trump Presidency is recommended reading." *

"An original and insightful collection,
