YouTube Description
as posted by the channelFrom Washington's Neutrality Proclamation to Lincoln's suspension of habeas corpus to Roosevelt's internment of Japanese Americans and on to today's wars on terrorism, times of crisis have compelled an expansion of executive power, sometimes beyond the limits described in Article II of the Constitution. In his analysis of these emergencies, Edelson, a professor at AU's School of Public Policy, argues that post-9/11 executive actions may set dangerous precedents for the future. (Univ. of Wisconsin)
