In this installment of a series on liberalism, Benjamin Klutsey, the director of the Program on Pluralism and Civil Exchange at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University, talks with Roland Merullo about taking liberal democracy, and each other, for granted as well as what people can do in our own lives to be more mindful about the decisions we make and how we treat others. Merullo is an award-winning author of 24 books including 17 works of fiction.
