Professor Timothy Kuhner gave a talk on 'American Kleptocracy: Explaining Trump' on Monday 16th April.

Donald Trump’s presidency has shocked the world. People want to know how did he win the election? Who voted for him and what were Trump voters thinking? And, more importantly, how is Trump exercising his newfound power? In this controversial lecture on democracy and corruption, Professor Timothy Kuhner, incoming Professor of Law at the University of Auckland, exposed the underlying reasons for Trump’s rise to power and the true nature of the Trump regime.

This event is part of Maynooth Week 2018. In June 2017 Maynooth University celebrated the 20th anniversary of its founding as an independent university. Maynooth Week 2018 is part of a year-long series of programmes and activities marking this milestone.
