Dan Chirot, University of Washington professor of international studies, says he would have laughed at the suggestion, even 10 years ago, that the United States could be heading toward insurrection or civil war. But in the wake of the Trump administration “and its sorry climax on January 6,” he says, “I no longer believe this is a laughing matter.”

Chirot, also a sociology faculty member, became professor emeritus this spring. He has joined the editorial board of The American Purpose, a moderately conservative online publication that he said is responding to the growing divide by “trying to strengthen the middle.” The publication seeks to defend liberal democracy “not in the modern American political sense, but in the classical sense” of ensuring equal protection under the law, basic civil liberties and respect for individual rights.
