What\u2019s Next\u201d - James A. \nMorone, PhD.\n\nAmerican politics can feel more divided and contentious than ever. But how \nmuch is truly new\u2014and how much reflects longstanding patterns in American \npolitical life?\n\nDrawing on his book Republic of Wrath: How American Politics Turned Tribal \nfrom George Washington to Donald Trump, James A. Morone will place today\u2019s \nhyper-partisan politics in historical perspective. He will explore how the \nTrump Administration is, in some ways, unprecedented. And in other ways, it \nis simply the latest inflection to a long historical trend.\n\nHow did we get here? Do today\u2019s divisions pose an unusual challenge to the \nrepublic, or are we experiencing another particularly turbulent chapter in \nthe nation\u2019s political history? What comes next? And what might we do to \ncalm the partisan storm?\n\nJames A. Morone is the John Hazel White Professor Emeritus of Political \nScience, Public Policy and Urban Studies at Brown University. He is the \nauthor of 11 books and nearly 200 essays on topics ranging from American \nhistory and health care policy to politics and popular culture. His books \ninclude The Democratic Wish; Hellfire Nation: The Politics of Sin in American \nHistory; Republic of Wrath; and Whiplash: From the Battle for Obamacare to \nthe War on Science. His writing has appeared in The New York Times, The \nWashington Post, The American Prospect, and the London Review of Books.\n\nBooks may be purchased in advance through online or local booksellers.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. No advance registration required.\n\n\u00a0\n", "startDate": "2026-10-15", "startTime": "16:30", "endDate": "2026-10-15", "endTime": "17:30", "label": "Add to Calendar", "options": [ "Apple", "Google", "iCal", "Microsoft365", "MicrosoftTeams", "Outlook.com", "Yahoo" ], "timeZone": "America\/New_York", "trigger": "click", "listStyle": "modal", "iCalFileName": "anselm-event-29041", "location": "New Hampshire Institute of Politics" }
