ALBANY, N.Y. (May 31, 2019) -- On the first of a two-part series, two political scientists from the Rockefeller College of Public Affairs & Policy offer insight on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Green New Deal and discuss the degree to which the resolution could transcend political ideology and bridge coalitions.

Returning to the show is Brian Greenhill, an associate professor who researches international relations, human rights and international organization. He spoke on the UAlbany News Podcast last season on the approaches policymakers take when addressing the risks of climate change.

Joining Greenhill is Jennifer Dodge, an associate professor of public administration and policy at UAlbany. Her research focuses on environmental policy conflicts, with special attention to the role of policy advocacy efforts by nonprofit organizations.


On Pt. 2, we spoke with Jim Malatras, the president of SUNY's Rockefeller Institute of Government. The institute is a public policy think tank based in downtown Albany, N.Y. and collaborates with Rockefeller College. Listen to the episode.
