{"product_id":"the-three-languages-of-politics-arnold-kling-9781948647427","title":"The Three Languages of Politics: 3rd edition","description":"\"It changed the way I look at the world.\" --Russ Roberts, host of EconTalkWhen it was first released in 2013, Arnold Kling's The Three Languages of Politics was a prescient exploration of political communication, detailing the \"three tribal coalitions\" that make up America's political landscape. Progressives, conservatives, and libertarians, he argued, are \"like tribes speaking different languages. As a result, political discussions do not lead to agreement. Instead, most political commentary serves to increase polarization.\"Now available in its 3rd edition, with new commentary on political psychology and communication in the Trump era, Kling's book could not be any more timely, as Americans--whether as media pundits or conversing at a party--talk past one another with even greater volume, heat, and disinterest in contrary opinions. The Three Languages of Politics is an accessible, precise, and insightful guide to how to lower the barriers coarsening our politics. This is not a book about one ideology over another. Instead, it is a book about how we communicate issues and our ideologies, and how language intended to persuade instead divides. Kling offers a way to see through our rhetorical blinders so that we can incorporate new perspectives, nuances, and thinking into the important issues we must together share and resolve.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arnold Kling\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1948647427\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781948647427\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cato Institute\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/19\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.10h x 5.10w x 0.70d","brand":"Arnold Kling","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43995194687743,"sku":"9781948647427","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9d8dcfaa-ef84-44b9-86d9-dc83faa2c648.jpg?v=1683334394","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-three-languages-of-politics-arnold-kling-9781948647427","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
