Governing America in the Age of Political Polarization
Henry E. Brady
American politics have witnessed intense ideological differences in the past, but something has changed in recent decades that is jeopardizing the ability of the two parties to negotiate and govern. Join a critical discussion on how American politics became so polarized, how the division affects governance and decision-making, and what might be done to break the gridlock in Washington and Sacramento.
