1 Much of the analysis seems based on a simplistic premise: that “the President has no general retaliatory authority.” He may, the author claims, “act only under a delegation which, falling short of being embodied in the Constitution, may be given only by the legislative branch” (pp. 10–11). The President’s constitutional power over recognition, diplomatic relations and treaty negotiation is not considered.
