Christina Skinner, assistant professor of legal studies and business ethics at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, joins the Business Scholarship Podcast to discuss her article Presidential Pendulums in Finance. In this article, Skinner reviews the emerging role of the presidency in financial regulation, an area that was long the preserve of congressional and agency policymaking. After introducing evidence for presidential involvement in financial regulation, Skinner discusses the normative and pragmatic implications for this involvement on business cycles.
This episode is hosted by Andrew Jennings, a teaching fellow and lecturer in law at Stanford Law School.
