DESCRIPTION:In contemporary democracies\, conflict over the correct policy 
 responses to everything from the Covid-19 pandemic\, economic inequality\,
  and ethnic diversity continues unabated. In the United States in particul
 ar\, this conflict has sown profound divisions between the actors of the s
 taunch two-party system\, which are not only political but have taken on a
  distinctly cultural hue. As the 2020 presidential elections results have 
 clearly illustrated\, this divide is deeply entrenched in the political la
 ndscape and does not show signs of easing.\nWhen policy debates devolve in
 to winner-take-all showdowns\, the lessons learned by the political partie
 s tend to drive them further apart. From the realm of foreign policy to th
 e politics of identity\, unresolved questions haunt our systems: Are we be
 coming inured to the reality of an increasingly divided society? Where doe
 s popular sovereignty truly reside? With the current pique of charismatic 
 chief executives and constitutional crises in the democratic and democrati
 zing world\, echoes of Carl Schmitt reverberate in the chambers of parliam
 ent and the halls of justice. Democracies that prize political majoritaria
 nism without protecting voices of the minority encourage defeatism. Racial
  tensions have come to the fore in an already fraught political climate an
 d will affect to a large extent people’s electoral habits\, perhaps with t
 he emergence of new and unseen voting patterns. Does a Biden presidency ha
 ve the tools and political grounding to begin facing these difficult quest
 ions? Or have the political echo chambers become too divergent?\nAGENDA\nH
