In this first episode, Dr. Stuart Shanker discusses the concept of polarization and describes how societies around the world are seemingly becoming more polarized and how this is being utilized for political gain by promoting fear and anger. Diving deeper, Dr. Shanker explains the chronic anxiety that polarization causes, the effect it has on the human body and whether a true liberal democracy can exist amongst such fear and anger.
