The speakers focus on electoral shifts within American society in relation to economic circumstances and the evolving identities of different social groups.
The discussion addresses how political parties have adapted to these changes and their challenges in rebranding. It ultimately explores the rift in the American electorate on the United States' role in the world, underlying the move toward the "America first" vision.
WHAT TO EXPECT?
Lots of interaction among participants;
Stimulated debate and insights into how culture, identity and the economy influence electoral outcomes.
