"Does the president or Congress have the power to remove executive officials? Because the U.S. Constitution is silent on this issue, it has been an ongoing source of political controversy and legal debate since the founding. Without trying to answer definitively this perennial question, the authors examine the power to remove since 1789 as both a marker of and key to understanding the expansions and contractions of executive power throughout American political and constitutional development"-- Provided by publisher.
