Today, we review the book The Myth of Left and Right by Hyrum Lewis and Verlan Lewis, who argue that the traditional left-right political spectrum is a harmful and misleading social construct. The authors contend that the terms “left,” “right,” “liberal,” and “conservative” are not based on fixed principles but instead represent socially constructed tribes that are constantly evolving and changing. The authors present evidence from psychological studies and political history to support their claim that ideological categories often precede and influence individual issue positions rather than the other way around. The authors further warn that ideological essentialism leads to intellectual, moral, and political damage, fostering unnecessary prejudice, hostility, and a distorted view of reality. They propose solutions to counter these harmful effects, suggesting we move away from ideological thinking and embrace a more nuanced and granular approach to political discourse and analysis.
