The political climate in the US has grown increasingly tense and partisan in recent years. What is it about our current time that is causing such a tense political climate? And do you see any positive way out of this and into a more normal political climate? It's complicated. This is not like, oh, there's some simple answer that has been overlooked. Part of it is at the level of politics, as we discussed with people like Will Wilkinson and Ezra Klein,. There is more polarization. But there's other things going on. I do think that modernity, the modern world, modern technological industrial society gives people the impression that they are left behind and feel bad about it.
