@Political scientist Jacob Hacker on the economic reasons for US toxic culture wars I Shoma Chaudhury
America’s fierce abortion debate is just a symptom. The real question is: Why is America caught in such a toxic divide? Why are hard-won battles being revisited? Why is American democracy turning its back on civil rights?
And what lessons does this hold for other free nations?
Political scientist & Yale professor, JACOB S HACKER — who, along with co-author Paul Pierson, have been called the “Sherlock Holmes & Dr Watson” of American politics — offers fascinating insights on why & how economic divides are exploding into culture wars, why progressives are on a back foot, and why the world’s richest plutocrats are getting to channel working class rage.
