具體描述
“The American political system—which includes everyone from voters to journalists to the president—is full of rational actors making rational decisions given the incentives they face,” writes political analyst Ezra Klein. “We are a collection of functional parts whose efforts combine into a dysfunctional whole.”
In Why We’re Polarized, Klein reveals the structural and psychological forces behind America’s descent into division and dysfunction. Neither a polemic nor a lament, this book offers a clear framework for understanding everything from Trump’s rise to the Democratic Party’s leftward shift to the politicization of everyday culture.
America is polarized, first and foremost, by identity. Everyone engaged in American politics is engaged, at some level, in identity politics. Over the past fifty years in America, our partisan identities have merged with our racial, religious, geographic, ideological, and cultural identities. These merged identities have attained a weight that is breaking much in our politics and tearing at the bonds that hold this country together.
Klein shows how and why American politics polarized around identity in the twentieth century, and what that polarization did to the way we see the world and one another. And he traces the feedback loops between polarized political identities and polarized political institutions that are driving our system toward crisis.
This is a revelatory book that will change how you look at politics, and perhaps at yourself.
用戶評價
##適閤作為American political polarization入門讀物。跳讀，理論與解釋視角都是老生常談的內容，裏麵的一些例子可以用於課堂教學。另外，Klein作為一個記者，能夠寫齣這樣informative的書，已經很難得瞭。
評分##精彩
評分##3.5吧，看內容簡介還以為會很political science，這寫得也太記者風瞭啊。不過各種研究和數據還是有意思的，順便梳理瞭下兩黨在最近幾屆大選中的戰況????
評分##polarization總比維持老不死們的homogeneity好 so maybe it’s kind of must have stage until entering the new world. Educations really is political power.
評分##作者是Vox創始人和編輯 ，信息量比較大，新觀點比較少，reader discretion is advised。
評分##精彩
評分##廢話太多瞭……好浪費時間噢
評分##“點”有點少啊，相當的囉嗦。看評論說後半比前半還要差，算瞭，棄讀
評分##Smart到Ezra Klein這個程度可以說是一件sexy的事情瞭......
