About this event

Mezey is Professor Emeritus of Political Science at DePaul University and former Dean of DePaul’s College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.  According to Mezey, Trump’s assertion of executive power exploits the ambiguities in the constitutional design of the presidency, exposes the fragility of the checks on executive tyranny that the Founders believed that they had created, and calls into question the commitment of the American people to our constitutional system. Mezey has written extensively on legislatures around the world, the United States Congress, and about the relationship between the Congress and the President in the United States. His books include: (S)electing the President: The Perils of Democracy (Routledge, 2018), Presidentialism: Power in Comparative Perspective (Lynne Rienner, 2013), and Representative Democracy (Rowman and Littlefield, 2008).

An LFV/FHNN Cooperative program.
