Federalism-palooza

About this Episode

We talk with federalism scholar Jessica Bulman-Pozen about how things get done in an age of partisan polarization. Executive federalism, the negotiated implementation of policy between the executive branch and states, not only leads to state-differentiated refractions of national policy, but, Jessica argues, is the right form of governance in gridlocked times.
