Summary: In this episode, we do a bit of time travel and leave the 17th century for a discussion of free speech on American college and university campuses today. Our guest is New York University professor Jonathan Haidt, who is a author “The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure,”. We do also try to draw parallels with older controversies in order to determine whether the psychological mechanisms at play are similar.
