Abstract
- My aim in this paper is to briefly describe the evolution of presidential executive orders and to consider their place in American political and constitutional development. I suggest that the history and significance of executive orders can best be understood in terms of two of the three dimensions that Stephen Skowronek discusses in The Politics That Presidents Make, namely constitutional and secular time. I conclude with a few thoughts about the implications of my account for Skowronek’s analysis and for American political and constitutional development. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
