Sobre este áudio
America is in a cold civil war between people who see each other as threats to the country - but themselves as patriots. How can that be?
They are patriots of two nations.
In this audiobook, national media commentator and presidential campaigns veteran Spencer Critchley shows why our current hyper-partisan division has been inevitable since the founding of the United States, as has the election of Donald Trump or someone like him.
That's because America is actually two nations occupying the same territory. The two nations have different worldviews: Cultures, values, and ways of understanding reality itself. One nation - the dominant one - is descended from the Enlightenment, and the establishment of reason as the ultimate source of authority. But the other is nation descended from the Counter-Enlightenment, and it has never stopped believing in faith, subjectivity, ethnic identity, and tradition.
Because the enlightenment worldview is so dominant, the counter-enlightenment largely has been forgotten by history. But as Critchley reveals, in many ways it's more active now than ever.
Uniting the two nations will require that they finally see and understand their different realities. This audiobook shows how we might still be able to make that happen - and why we must, if democracy is to survive.
