- **Event Description**: Hear Maya Kornberg explain how campaign costs, party power, violence, and social media fuel dysfunction in Congress—and how we might fix it.About this EventWhy hasn’t decades of reform made Congress work better? In her new book, Stuck, political scientist and Brennan Center for Justice Senior Fellow Maya Kornberg examines why waves of idealistic, reform-minded lawmakers—from the post-Watergate class of 1974 to the diverse cohort elected in 2018—have repeatedly found themselves constrained by Congress’s internal dynamics.Join the Goldman School of Public Policy for a conversation with Kornberg about how rising campaign costs, centralized party power, political violence, and the pressures of social media have made Congress increasingly inhospitable to change—and what it might take to fix the dysfunction in our nation’s Capitol.This event is part of the Goldman School of Public Policy’s Democracy Book Club series, which features authors whose work enriches our understanding of democracy by examining the institutions, policies, and civic traditions that shape democratic life.-----For disability-related accommodations, please contact the access coordinator in advance of the event: Elisabeth Mart, elismart@berkeley.edu
