Katrina vanden Heuvel

Editor and Publisher, The Nation; Author, The Change I Believe in: Fighting for Progress in the Age of Obama

In conversation with Phil Bronstein, Editor-at-Large, Hearst Newspapers

Vanden Heuvel challenges the limits of our downsized political debate, arguing that timid incrementalism and the forces of establishment power that debilitate American politics can be overcome only by independent organizing, strategic creativity and determined idealism. In the wake of the economic crisis, says vanden Heuvel, it is clear that neither one election, nor one person, can wholly reshape American politics.
