Why We're Polarized by Ezra Klein
This book delves into the roots and mechanisms of political polarization in the United States, exploring how human psychology, partisan identity, and systemic factors intertwine to deepen divisions within American society. It argues that polarization is not merely a result of ideological disagreements but is also driven by underlying social, economic, and media dynamics that amplify us-versus-them mentalities. Through a detailed examination of historical trends, political behaviors, and institutional incentives, the book offers insights into how polarization shapes American politics and suggests potential pathways toward a more unified political discourse.
