First 100 Days: From Home to Abroad | Executive Power: How Presidential Authority Reshapes Our Relationship with Democracy and Daily Life

Description

Every presidency tests the boundaries of executive authority, but the tools and intentions vary. Join a cross-generational dialogue that bridges academic theory with contemporary reality with Robert Lieberman, professor of political science at Johns Hopkins University, and his research assistant, Ido Harlev, a junior majoring in history, moderated by Mary Bruce, assistant director of public programs at the Johns Hopkins SNF Agora Institute. Together, they'll examine not just the mechanisms of presidential power but its real-world impact under President Donald Trump's second term. Their conversation will provide crucial insights into how presidential decisions ripple through government institutions and fundamentally reshape American democracy and our daily lives.

Please attend the event by using the Hopkins at Home livestream.

This is the first in a four-part series, "First 100 Days: From Home to Abroad," examining the effects of the new presidential leadership across the U.S. and beyond, in partnership with the SNF Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins.
