Previously, the Kalikow Center published four edited volumes, each marking an historic moment in its research and development. The first, From Votes to Victory: Winning and Governing the White House in the Twenty-First Century, represents the scholarly work of the center’s first symposium in 2008. The second, President or King? Evaluating the Expansion of Executive Power from Abraham Lincoln to George W. Bush, memorializes the results of a symposium in 2009 that was the first to include the Center’s former Senior Presidential Fellows, 2004 Democratic Presidential candidate Howard B. Dean III and Republican strategist and former White House advisor Edward J. Rollins.

In 2014, the Kalikow Center published two volumes: U.S. Presidential Leadership at the UN, 1945 to Present, which represents the work of a symposium hosted by the Center in October 2010; and Change in the White House? Comparing the Presidencies of George W. Bush and Barack Obama, which is the result of a symposium held at Hofstra in April 2012.
