"Evolving Democracy with Cultural Intelligence" with Steve McIntosh

Fractal Friends

Steve McIntosh is a political philosopher and an author. His most recent book is called Developmental Politics: How America Can Grow into a Better Version of Itself. Steve is the founder of the think tank Institute for Cultural Evolution.

Steve was on Fractal Friends in 2016. That conversation was called "Transcending Political Polarization."
In this conversation we talk about the cultural challenges of current U.S. Politics and the potential for finding a cultural solution. We talk about the idea of cultural intelligence, the ability to see the positive and negative qualities of each political worldview including our own. We get deep into the nature of polarization and how to turn our polarizing tensions into generative progress. And we talk about developing our own sense of good.

We talk about the rise of a new political worldview called "post-progressivism" that aims to integrate the existing spectrum of political perspectives, and bring forward the best of all of them.
