Political Science Professor Alexandra Filindra’s Research is Cited in a New York Times Article on the Republican Party’s Political Strategy and the Role of Racism

Alexandra Filindra, UIC professor of political science, is quoted and her research is cited in a New York Times column from Thomas Edsall, who writes about ethnicity and race in the Republican Party’s political strategy and the role of racism in the party’s current political agenda. “In the context of increased social diversity, portions of the public are willing to support calls for an exclusionary moral community of virtue at the expense of norms and institutions of democracy,” Filindra wrote in a 2018 paper. The column appears online (with subscription) via The New York Times or without a paywall via news aggregator DNYUZ.com.
