Overview
This volume explores the topics relating to the political powers of the United States' President by presenting varied expert opinions that examine many of the different aspects that comprise these topics. Chapter one's collection of essays debate whether the President should have the power to order torture. Chapter two considers how much power the president should have to operate in secret. Essays in chapter three debate to what extent the President should be constrained by domestic law. Chapter four evaluates whether the President is bound by international law. Each essay is supported by a counter viewpoint essay, so readers see the sides to each topic about presidential powers.
