In this podcast, Marcia Pally explores that paradox of foundational human cooperativity—as both evolutionary biology and our Christian and Jewish traditions tells us—and yet breakdowns of the very cooperativity that makes us flourish, leading to violence and divisiveness. The specific divisiveness investigated here is the rise of right-wing populism among America's white evangelicals, which emerges not from "us" thinking but from "us-them" thinking. Pally traces the path from religio-political history and current conditions to us-them thinking among white evangelicals, providing detailed information about current evangelical political and policy positions.
This episode is a cooperation between TheoPodacst and the Catholic Academy in Berlin.
