Lecture Summary:
The Obama administration's dramatic expansion of the federal government, all accomplished in the name of "progress," has come at the expense of core constitutional principles like separation of powers and federalism. With specific examples that explain the idea of the "administrative state," this lecture will detail the direct link between today's politics and the Progressive ideology of a hundred years ago.

About the First Principles series:
This monthly lecture series, launched in December 2008, addresses significant and timely political, historical, and economic topics from a constitutional perspective. Past speakers have included David Horowitz, Brian Kennedy, Paul Rahe, John Bolton, Thomas G. West, and Larry P. Arnn.

A video archive of past First Principles lectures is available here:
