The Presidency of Joseph R. Biden

A First Historical Assessment
Book •
Edited by Julian Zelizer, this collection brings together leading historians to offer a first scholarly assessment of Joseph R. Biden's presidency.

The essays analyze Biden's major policy initiatives, his approach to race and equity, foreign policy decisions, and the political context shaped by polarization and the Trump presidencies.

Contributors evaluate the durability and significance of Biden's legislative achievements, such as climate and industrial policies, and consider how his style of governance fits into longer historical trajectories.

The volume situates Biden relative to predecessors and successors, especially the two Trump presidencies that bookend his term.

It aims to move beyond day-to-day coverage to assess the presidency's broader historical meaning and legacy.
