THIS IS A PAST EVENT.
“Fracture” now seems everywhere in our contemporary United States: in social relations, partisan politics, growing economic inequalities, and enduring culture “wars.” But the “fracture” of our times began in the realm of ideas, as larger ideas of society, economy, selves, and political culture shattered into smaller, more individualistic ones. The phenomenon, which occurred on both the political right and the political left, shapes the world we live in.
This lecture, based on a Bancroft-Prize winning book of this title, will tell the story of how that happened and what it means for our present moment.
