My Review of Robert Talisse's Sustaining Democracy: What We Owe the Other Side

 



My latest Hornbook Review over at 3:16 AM is of the above-pictured book. While flawed in certain ways, I think it makes an important contribution to political psychology in our turbulent times. Talisse's diagnosis of our tendencies to polarize and his suggestions for what we can do about it both seem to me right on the money.

Two New Book Reviews

 


The latest two of my "hornbook" democracy reviews now up at 3:16 AM are of the "debate book" by Michael Huemer and Daniel Layman on whether political authority is an illusion here, and of Joshua Spivak's little primer on recall elections here

Check 'em out!

Oh, and Happy (tho I'm not expecting much myself) 2022!
