具体描述
“The American political system—which includes everyone from voters to journalists to the president—is full of rational actors making rational decisions given the incentives they face,” writes political analyst Ezra Klein. “We are a collection of functional parts whose efforts combine into a dysfunctional whole.”
In Why We’re Polarized, Klein reveals the structural and psychological forces behind America’s descent into division and dysfunction. Neither a polemic nor a lament, this book offers a clear framework for understanding everything from Trump’s rise to the Democratic Party’s leftward shift to the politicization of everyday culture.
America is polarized, first and foremost, by identity. Everyone engaged in American politics is engaged, at some level, in identity politics. Over the past fifty years in America, our partisan identities have merged with our racial, religious, geographic, ideological, and cultural identities. These merged identities have attained a weight that is breaking much in our politics and tearing at the bonds that hold this country together.
Klein shows how and why American politics polarized around identity in the twentieth century, and what that polarization did to the way we see the world and one another. And he traces the feedback loops between polarized political identities and polarized political institutions that are driving our system toward crisis.
This is a revelatory book that will change how you look at politics, and perhaps at yourself.

##倒计时一天 焦虑患者睡前（误）读物 比咖啡还提神 酒已备好 周三清早的会发来时就应该选edit response before sending 然后附加条件provided that we're not mourning over the death of democracy (otherwise shall we reschedule the meeting? please?)

评分##后面看着好捉急…
评分##作者是Vox创始人和编辑 ，信息量比较大，新观点比较少，reader discretion is advised。
评分##因为走得匆忙且行李已经超重 就临时在香港随手买了本书（不得不说香港的外文书的确是贵）断断续续在隔离和旅行中看完了 interesting facts and insights（虽然现在也不太记得啥了）能看出作者是想尽量以中立客观的态度讨论polarization的 然而还是免不了时不时展现出来的对民主党的inclination 如果一个sophisticated political journalist都无法避免自己的倾向的话 it says something, isn’t it
评分##Smart到Ezra Klein这个程度可以说是一件sexy的事情了......
评分##精彩
