Can political philosophy help us understand what ails American Democracy? Host Professor William Hudson explores this question with guest Assistant Professor of Political Science Justin Brophy. We examine the question with special attention to the ancient Greek philosopher Plato and the contemporary American political theorist the late Carey McWilliams – two thinkers who have greatly influenced Fr. Brophy’s ideas about democracy.
