Hello everyone, welcome to a new episode of The Decenter. Today I'm joined by Dr. John Hibbing. He's the Foundation Regents University Professor of Political Science and Psychology at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln. And today we're talking about his book, Predispose the Left, the Right and the Biology of Political Differences.
So Dr. Hibbing, welcome to the show. It's a huge pleasure to have you on. Thank you, Ricardo. I'm delighted to be here.
So uh we I I I need to ask you about the left and the right, but before we get into the science itself, what is what is the most common view people have of political differences? Where do people think they stem from? Well, um I've taught political science for a lot of years, and I frequently ask my students that. Where do you think your political views came from? And it probably won't surprise you that the most common answer is my parents.
