DESCRIPTION:The United States After Trump: A panel on the Presidential Succession and America in Transition\nTuesday, January 26 at 7:00pm Atlantic time (6:00pm EST/Boston time)\nBy Zoom. To request the Zoom link, email mhayes@stu.ca.\n\nPresented by the Canada Research Chair in Global and International Studies and St. Thomas University’s Political Science Department, this panel of historians and political scientists who study U.S. politics looks to the past, present and future to discuss the U.S. presidential succession at a moment of transition in American society. Panelists will explore the coronavirus pandemic, the Trump presidency and the attack on the Capitol on January 6 that heightened political divisions at a moment when American capitalism is increasingly challenged by new global competitors, new structural forces, and new social movements. What lies ahead for our neighbour to the South? What are some of the things to look for in this moment of transition towards the Biden presidency?\n\nWith\n\nJamie Gillies is an Associate Professor of Communications and Public Policy in the Department of Journalism and Communications at St. Thomas University.
