Join Suffolk Professor Brian Conley, Ph.D., in a virtual presentation on Project 2025 and its origins. This program is presented in collaboration with the Ashland Library.
Project 2025 has been in the news lately but, for some, it seemed to come out of nowhere. Join Professor Brian Conley of Suffolk University, as we delve into the history of this document and it's origins during the Reagan Years. For instance, called, "Mandate for Leadership", Edwin Feulner, who led the Heritage Foundation when it was first written, explains that the idea for such a policy book originated at a 1979 meeting of Heritage's Board. Professor Conley will help us understand the origins of the Mandate which led to the current Project 2025 document.
Brian M. Conley, Ph.D. is a Professor and Chair of the Political Science & Legal Studies Department at Suffolk University. As Program Director of Suffolk's Masters in Applied Politics and MA in Global Public Policy, as he has researched and written "The Rise of the Republican Right: From Goldwater to Reagan". Dr. Conley, an expert in electoral politics, political parties, and political marketing and branding.
We look forward to having a respectful dialogue about this important subject with an expert in the field.
