About this Event

In his thought-provoking work, James Davison Hunter, author of Democracy and Solidarity: On the Cultural Roots of America’s Political Crisis, explores the intricate relationship between democracy and the principles of solidarity in our increasingly polarized world. Hunter, in conversation with the Karsh Institute's Executive Director Melody Barnes, shares his insights on the current state of democracy, the role of cultural institutions in fostering unity, and the challenges and possibilities of rebuilding civic trust and collective responsibility in modern societies.

This event is hosted by the Karsh Institute of Democracy and the Institute for Advanced Studies in Culture. A book signing will immediately follow the event, with books available for purchase.
