417 | Seth D. Kaplan: Repairing American Society, One Zip Code at a Time
Seth D. Kaplan, fragile states expert and author of Fragile Neighborhoods: Repairing American Society, One Zip Code at a Time, joins The Realignment. Marshall and Seth discuss how the roots of the issues plaguing America: rising crime, school violence, family disintegration, addiction, alienation, and despair lie in our failing neighborhood structures, why wealthier and urban neighborhoods aren't immune from decline, and how revitalizing local institutions and our social ties can help repair the country.
