These are some of the questions tackled by Thomas Brackett Reed Professor of Government Andrew Rudalevige, who is also chair of Bowdoin’s government and legal studies department. He recently presented a remote webinar and Q&A for the Bowdoin community titled “Pandemics and Presidential Power.”
Rudalevige’s presentation, which is available to watch below, was held on July 30, 2020, and draws on a forthcoming article written with his former honors student Victoria Yu '19. That article will appear in the September 2020 issue of Presidential Studies Quarterly.
