Why compromise is essential for effective government, and why it is missing in politics today.
Synopsis
Connects the rejection of compromise to the domination of campaigning over governing - the permanent campaign - in American democracy. This title shows that campaigning for political office calls for a mindset that blocks compromise - standing tenaciously on principle to mobilize voters and mistrusting opponents in order to defeat them.
