"In this fascinating look at contemporary politics, [the authors] set out to explain what really causes the extreme political polarization seen today." -Publishers Weekly
What's in your garage: a Prius or a pickup?What's in your coffee cup: Starbucks or Dunkin' Donuts? What about your pet: cat or dog? As award-winning political scholars Marc Hetherington and Jonathan Weiler explain, even our smallest choices speak volumes about us-especially when it comes to our personalities and our politics. Liberals and conservatives seem to occupy different worlds because we have fundamentally differentworldviews: systems of values that can be quickly diagnosed with a handful of simple questions, but which shape our lives and decisions in the most elemental ways. If we're to overcome our seemingly intractable differences, Hetherington and Weiler show, we must first learn to master the psychological impulses that give rise to them, and to understand how politicians manipulate our mindsets for their own benefit.
Drawing on groundbreaking original research,Prius or Pickup? provides the psychological key to America's deadlocked politics, showing that we are divided not by ideologies but something deeper:personality differences that appear in everything from politicsto parenting to the workplace to TV preferences, and that would be innocuousif only we coulddecouple them from our noxious political debate.
"A fascinating way to look at the fracturing of a nation." -Kirkus Reviews
"An exceptionally insightful and entertaining exploration of the roots of tribalism in American (and European) society and politics, and its ominous consequences for democracy." -Thomas E. Mann, Senior Fellow, Brookings Institution
