Escalation Trap and Violent Populism

The Escalation Trap and Violent Populism A conversation with Professor Robert Pape, University of Chicago Robert Pape, Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago and founding director of the Chicago Project on Security and Threats (CPOST), joins us to discuss two forces reshaping American security — one abroad, one at home. Pape will lay out his "escalation trap": how each round of military action in the Middle East creates the conditions for the next, locking the United States into open-ended conflict. He then turns to violent populism in America — what CPOST's national surveys reveal about the normalization of political violence, who supports it, and what that means for the elections ahead.
