A discussion with Professor James Druckman and Adam Chodak.

UR Professor James Druckman, PhD, will discuss his book, "Partisan Hostility and American Democracy: Explaining Political Divisions and When They Matter.  Adam Chodak, evening anchor and managing editor for News 8, will moderate.  They will address the tendency of Democrats and Republicans to dislike and distrust one another, how animus influences a wide range of political behaviors, and how partisan animosity does not inevitably mean that democracy is eroding.
