Sinopsis
Radical partisanship among ordinary Americans is
rising, and it poses grave risks for
the prospects of American democracy. Political
violence is rising in the United States, with
Republicans and Democrats divided along racial
and ethnic lines that spurred massive bloodshed
and democratic collapse earlier in the
nation8217shistory. The January 6, 2021
insurrection and the partisan responses that
ensued are a vivid illustration of how deep
these currents run. How did American politics
become so divided that we cannot agree on how to
categorize an attack on our own Capitol? For over
four years, through a series of surveys and
experiments, Nathan P. Kalmoe and Lilliana Mason
have been studying radicalism among ordinary
American partisans. In this groundbreaking book,
they draw on new evidence8212aswell as
insights from history, psychology, and political
science8212toput our present partisan
fractiousness in context and to explain broad
patterns of political and social change. Early
chapters reveal the scope of the problem, who
radical partisans are, and trends over time,
while later chapters identify the conditions that
partisans say justify violence and test how
elections, political violence, and messages from
leaders enflame or pacify radical views. Kalmoe
and Mason find that ordinary partisanship is far
more dangerous than pundits and scholars have
recognized. However, these findings are not a
forecast of inevitable doom the current climate
also brings opportunities to confront
5
democratic threats head-on and to create a more
inclusive politics. Timely and thought- provoking,
Radical American Partisanship is vital reading
for understanding our current political
landscape.
