The Hierarchy of Political Life

The Hierarchy of American Political Life is a diagnostic framework that reveals the deep structure of the American political order by showing how what we believe becomes what we build, and how what we build shapes the systems, cultures, and behaviors that define public life.

It is designed to help people see beyond surface-level politics and make sense of the forces that shape our collective life. By tracing political behavior back to its moral and structural roots, the framework equips us to understand not just what is happening, but why it is happening and what it reveals about the foundations of our society.
