Respect and Loathing in American Democracy
February 5 @ 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm
$10
Featuring Jeff Spinner-Halev, Kenan Eminent Professor of Political Ethics, Department of Political Science
Respect is in trouble. Many Americans think that respecting other citizens is a virtue of a democratic society, yet many struggle to respect opposing partisans. This presentation will examine the importance of respect, the tensions between justice and respect, and a theoretical path forward that is challenging but far from impossible for political theorists and citizens to traverse.
