The 2020 Election and Its Aftereffects: Results, Reflections, and Reimagining a Path Forward

Description

Join the SNF Agora Institute and the Social Science Research Council for an across-the-aisle discussion about what the U.S. presidential election tells us about the durability of American democracy. A month after Election Day, we bring together scholarly and public thinkers from across the ideological spectrum to provide interpretations of the election's results, reflections on the transition of power, and ideas for what paths forward the major parties could take to restore a sense of common stake in our country's future. Our discussion will not only consider who won and why, but will also explore the deeper meaning for democracy in the U.S. and around the world.
