Ghastly Groupishness

Yascha Mounk makes his second appearance on The Remnant, this time to discuss his new book, The Great Experiment: Why Diverse Democracies Fall Apart and How They Can Endure. In a conversation tailor-made for holders of the Remnant bingo card, Yascha and Jonah discuss the dangers of tribalism and populism, America’s crisis of community, and what patriotism should look like. They also examine America’s shifting demographics and take a deep dive into the nuances of liberal philosophy.   Show Notes: - Yascha’s web page - The Great Experiment - Yascha’s previous Remnant appearance - The coalitional instinct - The cult of unity - The Remnant with Yuval Levin - The Remnant with Francis Fukuyama Learn more about your ad choices.
