This edited volume considers the extent to which the Obama
presidency matched the promises of hope and change that were held
out in the 2008 election. Contributors assess the character of
"change" and, within this context, survey the extent to which there
was enduring change within particular policy areas, both domestic
and foreign. The authors combine empirical detail with more
speculative assessment of the limits and possibilities of change
amidst a very dense institutional landscape and in an era of
intense political polarization. Some see significant changes, the
full consequences of which may only be evident in later years.
Other authors in the collection present a markedly different
picture and suggest that processes of change were not only limited
and partial but at times leading the US in directions far removed
from the promises of 2008. The book will make an important
contribution to the debates about the Obama legacy.
