Twice a year, the Carter School brings together the school community and the broader public in dialogue about peace, conflict resolution, and justice. In this session, we'll discuss how workplaces — where we have ideologically diverse networks — are being inspired to address political polarization in the U.S.
In Fall 2020, the Carter school launched a new tradition to bring together the Carter School community and the broader public in dialogue about peace, conflict resolution, and justice. This inaugural event was birthed out of the recognition of the International Day of Peace, which is recognized every year on September 21st.
In this session, we'll discuss how alienation and misunderstanding is driving political polarization in the U.S., and how the organizations where we work can help reverse the damage. The session will showcase collective axiology theory, developed at the Carter School, to explain how misunderstanding leads to conflict. It will then show how workplaces—where we have ideologically diverse networks—are being inspired to address the issue through their training infrastructure.
