You can now watch online the brilliant lecture given by Professor Theda Skocpol about the impact of Barack Obama’s presidency. She also discussed the emergence of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton as the presumptive nominees for this year’s election. It was the latest in Selwyn’s annual series of Ramsay Murray lectures, and a packed audience was there for the event in early May. Professor Skocpol is the Victor S. Thomas Professor of Government and Sociology at Harvard University, and is one of America’s most distinguished political scientist. We were delighted to welcome her to the original Cambridge, and we hope you enjoy her lecture as much as those attending on the night.
