Ten Minutes On... Political Polarisation and Radicalisation in the United States
This week we dive into the state of American politics as citizens head to the polls for a pivotal presidential election. After a long and contentious campaign, many are asking just how polarized—or even radicalized—American society has become. We explore these questions in depth, comparing political division in the U.S. to that of other countries around the world.
Our discussion also focuses on potential solutions: What can the next U.S. president and other leaders do to help ease the tension and restore unity? Tune in as we analyze the roots of this polarization, examine how it affects society, and explore ways to bring about a more constructive and cohesive political landscape.
