E se alguém te falasse que você não é realmente livre? Que todas as suas escolhas são pré-determinadas por uma teia complexa e inescapável de eventos? Que você e todas as suas ações não têm como fugir desse conjunto de imposições compostas por genética, fatores ambientais, cultura, classe social e assim por diante?
Diante disso, como ficaria a nossa organização social? Como a gente lidaria com a meritocracia ou com o conceito de culpa? Como punir alguém por um crime, se esse alguém não tem liberdade de fato para escolher não ser criminoso?
Essas respostas todas estão no livro “Determined: A science of life without free will”, ou Determinado, a ciência da vida sem livre arbítrio, numa livre tradução. O livro foi escrito pelo professor de neurologia e biologia da universidade de Stanfordn Robert M. Sapolski e é a linha mestra deste episódio.

The election of 1936 saw FDR re-elected in a landslide. It was also an election in which fundamental questions about the future direction of America were at stake. David and Gary discuss what made it a turning point for American democracy and ultimately for the wider world. Could the power of the Supreme Court be tamed? What was the true nature of economic freedom? And what threatened the New Deal - dissent at home or looming dangers abroad?

We’ve reached the twentieth century and today’s episode is about the decisive election of 1912. David and Gary discuss the year when the Republicans split, the Democrats recaptured the White House after an absence of twenty years, and American politics shifted decisively towards progressivism. Who were the real progressives? What was Theodore Roosevelt trying to achieve in setting up a new party? How did Woodrow Wilson mange to win the nomination and the presidency? And was this the election that saw the dawn of a new environmental politics?

This episode in our series on the Ideas Behind American Elections looks at 1896, when a single speech nearly upended American politics. The speech was William Jennings Bryan’s ‘Cross of Gold’ address at the Democratic Party convention, which won him the nomination. How did a 36-year old outsider from Nebraska get so close to reaching the White House? What made the issue of silver coinage the driving force behind American populism? And why was 1896 the template for a new kind of campaigning, in which the power of oratory had to square off against the power of money?
