The Presidency of Joseph R. Biden: A First Historical Assessment
Book •
This edited collection, curated by Julian Zelizer, compiles essays from historians evaluating the presidency of Joseph R. Biden as a first historical assessment.
The contributors address Biden's domestic achievements, foreign policy decisions, and the administration's engagement with race and equity, arguing the administration enacted substantial programs though their durability was politically challenged.
The book situates Biden within mid-20th-century Democratic traditions and contrasts his presidency with the disruptive politics of Donald Trump.
It reflects on whether Biden represents the end of an era and considers how his ideas might persist despite political setbacks.
The volume aims to move beyond immediate reportage to provide historical perspective on Biden's accomplishments and failures.
