Lessons on Democracy: A Call to Public Service

from JFK35 - A podcast by the JFK Library Foundation · host JFK Library Foundation

In this episode, we explore how President Kennedy's call to public service helped shape a generation of dedicated government leaders. His vision for a professional and expert-driven public sector laid the foundation for decades of democratic progress. Historian Fredrik Logevall joins us to reflect on the lasting impact of JFK's New Frontier. This episode is part three of a four-part series taking a closer look at what made President John F. Kennedy a strong democratic leader, not as a leader of the Democratic Party, but as the leader of a modern democracy.
