In Episode 3, the podcast dives into political psychology; polarization of political, economical, and moral issues; the role leaders play in effective communication; listening to differing political views with civility and respect; and what can be learned from American history to apply to today’s political arena.
We are joined by two political scientists:
Leonie Huddy, a professor of political science and currently the Department Chair, and Stanley Feldman, a professor of political science, both at Stony Brook University.
