Co-sponsored by the Article I Initiative and the Federalism & Separation of Powers Practice Group

What would history have to say about the way in which American foreign policy is conducted in the modern era?  Are Congress and the Executive duly considering the founding principles of our nation as they conduct foreign policy, from the division of labor between these two branches, to the appropriate use of treaties, executive agreements, and other less formal agreements not submitted to the Senate for ratification, to the imposition or revocation of sanctions?  And what of multilateral treaties, international governing bodies, and the preservation of American sovereignty?  These and other issues will be addressed by our guest speaker and panelists.
