WBEZ Presents an evening with Sen. Chris Murphy in conversation with Zeenat Rahman. He’ll unpack his new book, Crisis of the Common Good: The Fight for Meaning and Connection in a Broken America. Long-term shifts in economic priorities, technology and cultural norms have reshaped how the American public experiences work, community, and civic life while debates over inequality, political influence and public trust continue.
Drawing on history and political philosophy, Murphy will explore economic power, globalization, technology and civic engagement while introducing a framework centered on the “common good” that he argues can resonate across political perspectives. |
