Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Dartmouth
США
Добавлен 11 июл 2014
Osher at Dartmouth (formerly known as ILEAD) was founded in November, 1990 by 38 members of the Upper Valley intrigued with the “idea of continued learning.” Our founders relished the challenge of their own self-administered and peer-taught discussion programs. This channel provides a look at some of the exciting events and topics we offer to our members and the surrounding community. For more information, visit our website at osher.dartmouth.edu!

Why America Needs a New Electoral System
Просмотров 1092 года назад

No other democracy uses primaries to select its political candidates; our two-party system is among the world’s strictest; and the average lawmaker represents vastly more constituents than those in nearly any other country. Meanwhile, antidemocratic extremism in American politics is escalating, and arguably with more success than in other advanced...

Polarization is now enveloping everyday lives. This pervasive polarization has led to an ideologically-fortified class structure, less trust in government and in authorities generally, greater political intolerance, and diminished ...
