Professor Jhon Yoo from the University of Berkeley analyzes the campaign of both US presidential candidates, Trump and Biden, the changes in the Supreme Court, relations with China and the coronavirus pandemic.

According to Professor Yoo, “The supreme court is one of the keys to political campaigns today, Americans know perfectly well the judges and magistrates that compose it and that did not happen 30 or 40 years ago. This has changed, now its importance in political life is fundamental to change our social policies ”. We’ll take a look at all this and more in the next interview.  

John Choon Yoo is a Korean American attorney and former government official. Professor Yoo is the Emanuel Heller Professor of Law and director of the Korea Law Center, the California Constitution Center, and the Law School’s Program in Public Law and Policy.

His most recent book is Defender in Chief: Donald Trump’s Fight for Presidential Power (St. Martin’s 2020). Professor Yoo is a visiting scholar at the American Enterprise Institute and a visiting fellow at the Hoover Institution.
