Description

Members of Congress and state legislators routinely disagree along party lines over the size of government and individual responsibility. But the sharp divide is not only over policy issues; it has snowballed into an emotional hostility toward members of the other party. Democrats and Republicans see each other as members of disliked - even reviled - outgroups. How did the "Hatfield versus McCoy" mindset set in? Will it persist as Americans struggle to survive the shared threat of the novel Coronavirus? What is the place for principled debate in today's toxic political environment? This event will feature Stanford Professor Shanto Iyengar, National Review senior editor Ramesh Ponnuru, and Humphey Professor Larry Jacobs.
