In this episode I talk to Professor Joe Forgas to explore whether its possible to prevent the rise of populism, hate and extremist political movements.
We discuss what aspects of our psychology can lead people to adopt hateful views and support political movements or parties that discriminate against others. We also explore how these are exploited by media, parties and political leaders - and the institutions around us. We’ then consider what we can do to reduce the rise of populism, hate and far right movements.
Professor Forgas is based at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia, and has spent decades studying Social Psychology, winning several awards and producing hundreds of publications. As a refugee who escaped communist Hungary in the boot of a car when he was younger, he has a fascinating personal story that informs his work on this topic.
