Join Professor Mariano-Florentino Cuéllar, Professor of Law and Deane F. Johnson Faculty Scholar at Stanford Law School, as he discusses how every day the executive branch of the federal government faces complex challenges involving peace and security, protecting our natural resources, public health and other issues with major consequences for the country. Lawyers working in high-level legal and policy positions within the executive branch have a unique vantage-point for understanding and managing those challenges. At a time of major economic, political, and global change, how well-equipped is the executive branch to advance the interests of the American people? What new challenges does the country face that call for a response from the executive branch? What is the role of lawyers and legally-trained policy makers in dealing with difficult issues, such as balancing science and accountability, protecting the country's security, and safeguarding the environment?
