In this episode Matt Crawford speaks with author Jamal Greene about his book How Rights Went Wrong. In this much needed read Greene describes how our idea of rights, and how absolute those rights are has pushed us into separate camps and divides us further. While judges are meant to be the arbiters of those cases they have also driven a wedge between us and inflamed passions instead of tempering them. This book offers common sense solutions and examples in how we may bring down the temperature in the country.
