Better Conflict Bulletin is looking for a professional writer to produce a weekly newsletter for those who care about making the U.S. political conflict less violent and more productive. The ideal candidate is someone who is both fascinated and horrified by the polarization of American politics. You’re already reading widely across the political spectrum, suspicious of ideology and tribalism, nerdy about conflict dynamics, and more into the idea of learning to live together than winning.
ABOUT THE ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES
This is a new publication which will offer news and informed perspectives on the U.S. civil conflict. Topics will include polarization, the culture war, disinformation, institutional trust, censorship, algorithms, extremism, protest movements, and so on. We are writing for professionals whose work touches this conflict in some way including mediators, technologists, researchers, policy-makers and journalists. Conflict is an essential part of how society changes, so we’re not trying to end or “resolve” it. Rather, we’re trying to have better conflict — a good fight. Our orientation is practical, as we are always asking the question: what can I, as a professional whose work is touched by this conflict, do differently to make things better?
THE BETTER CONFLICT BULLETIN WILL BE IN NEWSLETTER FORM AND INCLUDE:
