 Polarization in the U.S. and Beyond

  • Donald Trump's 2016 election victory and 2024 re-election highlighted America's growing political divide. 

  • Polarization has been a key issue, with opposing views intensifying, often marked by extreme rhetoric.

  • Merriam-Webster's 2024 Word of the Year: The term "polarization" gained widespread usage, reflecting the sharp divisions in political and cultural beliefs.

  • Polarization is not confined to the U.S.; countries like France and Germany are also seeing a shift away from centrist politics, with increasing cultural and political divides globally.

Longstanding Roots of Polarization

  • Polarization has deep historical roots, stretching back to issues like civil rights in the 1950s-60s, which have influenced today's partisan divides.

  • The rise in income and wealth inequality since the 1970s has worsened polarization, creating sharper divides within society.

  • Cultural and Educational Changes: Changing social norms, evolving behavioral standards, and the increasing importance of a college degree have contributed to societal fragmentation.

Modern Factors Amplifying Polarization

  • The rise of social media, the Internet, and AI has transformed political discourse, creating echo chambers that amplify polarized views.

  • Studies show how social media refracts political opinions, making people more entrenched in their views and further dividing them from opposing perspectives.

  • The influence of artificial intelligence on media and communication further deepens political tribalism, with societal divisions becoming more pronounced.
