Description

Democracy depends on the participation of its citizens. But many people don’t participate in their democracies. What drives, and what discourages, political participation, here in the United States and around the world? In the latest from Talking Policy, host Lindsay Morgan interviews Cesi Cruz, a political scientist at UCLA who studies how information and social networks affect political participation, and Christopher Ojeda, a political scientist at UC Merced who studies how mental health and poverty shape the political engagement of citizens. This interview was recorded on September 21, 2022.
