Jeremy D. Bailey joined the University of Houston in 2007, and holds a dual appointment in the department of political science and the Honors College. He teaches The Human Situation and American Political Thought and participates in Phronesis: The Program on Politics and Ethics.
Bailey received his B.A from Rhodes College and his Ph.D. from Boston College, where his dissertation was the 2004 co-winner of the APSA' s E. E. Schattschneider Prize for best dissertation in American politics. His research examines how the tension between constitutionalism and political change transforms, and is in turn altered by, political theorists who are also political actors. He is the author of Thomas Jefferson and Executive Power (Cambridge University Press, 2007), and his research has also appeared in Presidential Studies Quarterly and Publius: The Journal of Federalism. Bailey is now working on democratic theories of executive power, as well as a project on James Madison and the problem of public opinion.
