What and Why are Political Beliefs? A Conversation with Oliver Traldi

  • Resumen

  • What are political beliefs and how do we form them? Oliver Traldi, a current John and Daria Barry Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the James Madison Program, discusses this and more in his recently-published his first book, Political Beliefs: A Philosophical Introduction (Routledge, 2024), a textbook which aims to explain the reasons behind political beliefs and disagreements from a philosophical perspective. In this conversation, Oliver delves into the unique contributions of philosophy to the study of political beliefs, the sources of our political ideas, the impact of online discourse and technological advancements on political trust and polarization, the importance of developing personal heuristics for evaluating information, and the challenges of maintaining trust in institutions and experts. Oliver Traldi received his PhD in Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame, where he specialized in epistemology. You can read Oliver's essays and other writings here, and his textbook is available for free here.
