Josep Colomer Speaking Topics
Colomer argues, against much conventional wisdom, that political polarization is embedded in the constitutional design. Sustained conflict and institutional gridlock are not mainly questions of character, personalities, or determined by socioeconomic or cultural inequalities. They are, above all, the result of the formula of separation of powers between the Presidency and Congress, which, together with a system of only two parties, fosters adversarial politics and polarization. Colomer contends that in the past, bipartisan cooperation and domestic peace flourished only under a foreign existential threat, such as during the Cold War. Once such a threat vanished, unsettled issues and new social concerns have broadened the public agenda and triggered again animosity and conflict. This is of interest to citizens attentive to current affairs, as well as to public officers, journalists, pundits, as well as students, instructors, and researchers in political science.
Josep Colomer has visited forty countries, had jobs in five, and lectured in five languages. How can a foreigner learn English in America? Should Americans learn other languages?
Breaking the stigma surrounding academic professionals, this topic is catered to graduation ceremonies, commencements, and similar events.
Democratic governance needs to accept the challenge of globalization. It should be organized at the local, the national, and the global levels without the absolute sovereignty of national states.
What are the consequences of the cumulative crises provoked by the Great Recession, the pandemic, and the new confrontation with Russia for the expansion of democracy in the world? Are new “transitions” and democratic “revolutions” still likely? Are we moving to a new, non-ideological Cold War between democracy and authoritarianism?
