Every day, we’re confronted by headlines that reveal the
ever-widening chasm between left and right in America. What’s
driving this hyper- polarization? And are there any
solutions?
Thanks to a stimulating conversation with National Affairs Editor
Yuval Levin of the Ethics and Public Policy Center and independent
scholar and economist Arnold Kling, I’m learning that there are
some pretty fundamental cultural trends that we need to understand
if we want to get at the roots of our frustrations.
In part, they lie in what Yuval calls the “politics of
nostalgia.” For Arnold, the author of The Three Languages of
Politics, our speech is exacerbating America’s political
divide.
Join me for this very important conversation about how our politics
got to where they are today and how subsidiarity, a simple concept
with a big name, is a major part of the solution.
