Have identity politics become problematic? Do they help or hinder the progressive project? Over the past decade, we’ve seen an explosion of radical identity politics that have often created stark polarisation, with excesses that have been seized upon by its biggest critics. So how do we move the conversation forward so that societies can create further equality? Joining Matthew on this week’s Forward Vision is academic and political scientist, Yascha Mounk. Discussing his new book, ’The Identity Trap’, Yascha traces the history of how radical identity politics have taken hold, the risks that occur when ideas behind our identities become too simplified, and what alternative liberal perspectives can help us live up to our universal values.
'The Identity Trap: A Story of Ideas and Power in Our Time' is available now: https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/456408/the-identity-trap-by-mounk-yascha/9780241638293
