Why We're Polarized
Synopsis
Ezra Klein argues that America's political system isn't broken, but rather functioning as designed, leading to widespread polarization. He explains how rational actors within the system, driven by incentives, contribute to a dysfunctional whole. This book provides a framework for understanding the forces behind the nation's division, focusing on how partisan identities have merged with other aspects of identity, straining the country's social fabric.
