Listen "Trumping Democracy with Samuel Issacharoff"
Episode Synopsis
Are we witnessing the weakening of political parties? If that is the case, what are the effects of this phenomenon on democracy? Is there a market for centrist politics? Has the US turned populist? And what is the future for Argentina under President Javier Milei?
Leszek Jazdzewski (Fundacja Liberte!) talks with Samuel Issacharoff, the Bonnie and Richard Reiss Professor of Constitutional Law at the NYU School of Law. He is a leading figure in the study of democracy, constitutions, and the courts, and is the author of Fragile Democracies: Contested Power in the Era of Constitutional Courts and, more recently, Democracy Unmoored: Populism and the Corruption of Popular Sovereignty. He also is a leading figure in the field of procedure and complex litigation, and served as the reporter for the American Law Institute’s Principles of Aggregate Litigation. He served as a senior legal advisor to the presidential campaigns of Barack Obama and has long experience as an appellate advocate in American courts. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Tune in for their talk!
