About this listen
Bloomsbury presents Don't Talk About Politics: How to Change 21st-Century Minds, written and read by Sarah Stein Lubrano
Democracy is dying because we are clinging to a dangerous and outdated myth: talking about politics can change people’s minds. It doesn’t.
This provocative debut from a bold voice combines a fascinating range of research to show us the psychological and sociological factors that really shape our politics.
Drawing from ancient philosophy to modern neuroscience and social science, Dr Sarah Stein Lubrano reveals the surprising truth about how people think and behave politically. From friendship to community organizing and social infrastructure, she explores the actions that actually do change minds.
In a world where politics keeps getting more irrational, dishonest, violent and chaotic, it’s getting much harder to reach people with words alone. So people who really care about democracy must ask: how can we stop arguing and do the deep work to build stronger foundations for political life, and a better world for us all?
She writes with an assurance of someone completing their tenth major work, not their first. The world is being introduced to an important new voice writing on a topic that may be the defining fracture point of the early 21st century: how to come together around a shared concept of the common good.
A staggeringly brilliant debut
