“Angry Politics provides a superb review of our national political polarization. Supported by an abundance of research, both scholarly and popular, Angry Politics explains the causes and consequences of our partisan divide. It is well written, thoroughly researched, and beautifully organized. Current and accessible for readers inside the classroom and out, Angry Politics offers an expansive and meaningful examination of our political polarization and provides optimistic suggestions for ways to bridge our national divide.”—Alison Dagnes, author of Super Mad at Everything All the Time: Political Media and Our National Anger
“Ulbig has written a very fine book linking our contemporary political polarization to incivility among college students. She demonstrates that our dangerous national divides are in fact rampant within college populations, the pool of future American citizens and leaders. Angry Politics is required reading for anyone interested in how students think about politics and why university faculty and administrators must take heed before this new generation replicates the intolerant, destructive politics of their parents and grandparents.”—Susan Herbst, university professor of political science and president emerita, University of Connecticut
