In this episode, John is joined by The University of Chicago’s Prof. Chris Blattman in discussing his new book entitled ‘Why We Fight’. We journey deep within what motivates individuals, groups, and states to take up arms against each other. But as you’ll hear, Chris does come up with a somewhat different thesis that’s a little more optimistic about human nature and political institutions.
