LIVE: Does Money Distort Our Politics?
Podcast: Not Another Politics PodcastPublished On: Wed Oct 18 2023
Description: If there is one thing the right and left seem to agree on it’s that money distorts our politics. It allows the rich to shape policy, choose who gets elected, and escape consequences. But what if this common belief isn’t as true as you think?On our second live episode, we look back to famous paper in the political science literature, “Why Is There so Little Money in U.S. Politics?” by Stephen Ansolabehere, John Figueiredo and James Snyder. Their provocative paper asks an often-overlooked question: if political money is so effective, why isn’t there more of it?This episode was recorded live at the University of Chicago Podcast Network Festival.
