It's one thing to talk about political polarization – a fresher perspective would be to talk about political disputes, because even political divisions are essentially arguments. Every dispute is a unique kind of negotiation, and our political polarization is made up of individuals in conflict. That’s why a person who understands disputes is a crucial part of a functioning society.

Kasper Kylmälä is a political expert and speech coach. The lecture is based on his recent book Poliittiset riidat. It combines political theory with negotiation skills, offering you a completely new perspective on politics and the divisions it creates.

The lecture won’t teach you how to win arguments, but it will teach you:

What is politics really about?

How do arguments – especially political ones – work?

Why is it in your best interest to understand how others think?

Lecture will be organized twice:
