The Presidential Monopoly Of Foreign Relations, Raoul Berger
The Presidential Monopoly Of Foreign Relations, Raoul Berger
Michigan Law Review
Because of the widespread ramifications of foreign relations, discussion must perforce be confined to presidential executive agreements, and whether the Senate may be excluded from knowledge of, and participation in, negotiations with foreign nations as a part of the treaty-making process. Mention only can be made of the legislative shortcomings which have contributed to the all but total takeover of foreign relations by the President, and of the need for procedural reform in the Senate if its participation is to be effective. Could we view the matter as an original question, that is, were we drafting or amending a Constitution …

United States Department Of State, John M. Mathews
Michigan Law Review
In the conduct of foreign relations, the President, though ultimately responsible to the people for the general success or failure of such conduct, is unable, of course, to give his personal attention to any except what he deems to ,be the most important and momentous questions of policy.

Mr. Beck's position is clearly shown in the following quotations from his article: "Those provisions of the Constitution …

Administrative Powers Of The President, John R. Fairlie
Michigan Law Review
Turning now to those particular branches of administration where the Constitution confers on the President special powers, we shall find that in these fields he has still more ample authority. Not only do the constitutional grants guard him from encroachment on the part of Congress, but they enable him at times to assume a large degree of legislative power.

Administrative Powers Of The President, John A. Fairlie
Michigan Law Review
It is the purpose of this paper to discuss, with some effort at systematic classification the powers of the President of the United States, through which he maintains an effective and responsible control over the whole federal administration. The position of the President in this respect offers a striking contrast to that of the state governors, which is not always fully appreciated in comparisons of the state and federal governments; and an analysis of the President's authority may well suggest some inquiry as to the relative merits of the centralized executive of the federal government, and the decentralized and unorganized …
