Why We're Polarized
Why We're Polarized

Dissects American politics' descent into identity division.

If you're intrigued by the current state of U.S. politics and want to dig deeper into the how and why, "Why We're Polarized" is a compelling read. Ezra Klein does an excellent job of dissecting complex political dynamics without getting lost in jargon or bias. It's a well-researched narrative that offers insights into the convergence of politics with our personal identities, which could really illuminate the root causes of the division you're witnessing today.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

America is polarized by identity. Over the past fifty years in America, partisan identities have merged with racial, religious, geographic, ideological, and cultural identities, attaining a weight that is breaking much in politics and tearing at the bonds that hold the country together. Political analyst Ezra Klein shows how and why American politics polarized around identity in the twentieth century and what that polarization did to the way people see the world and one another. He traces the feedback loops—between polarized political identities and polarized political institutions—driving the system toward crisis. Why We’re Polarized reveals the structural and psychological forces behind America’s descent into division and dysfunction. Neither a polemic nor a lament, it offers a clear framework for understanding everything from Donald Trump’s rise to the Democratic Party’s leftward shift to the politicization of everyday culture.
