• To become an extremist, hang around with people you agree with: The Spectator | Cass Sunstein ? co-author of the hugely influential Nudge and an adviser to President Obama ? unveils his new theory of ?group polarisation?, and explains why, when like-minded people spend time with each other, their views become not only more confident but more extreme
• To become an extremist, hang around with people you agree with: "Politica l extremism is often a product of group polarisation and social segregation is a useful tool for producing polarisation. In fact, a good way to create an extremist group, or a cult of any kind, is to separate members from the rest of society. [...] So why do like-minded people go to extremes? The most important reason for group polarisation, which is key to extremism in all its forms, involves the exchange of new information. Group polarisation often occurs because people are telling one another what they know, and what they know is skewed in a predictable direction. When they listen to each other, they move. [...] When groups move, they do so in large part because of the impact of information. People tend to respond to the arguments made by other people ? and the pool of arguments, in a group with a predisposition in a particular direction, will inevitably be skewed in the direction of the original predisposition ."

• Are blogs ruining economic debate? ? Crooked Timber: The web, for all its blessings, is an aggravating factor. Many of the most successful economics blogs promote communication within political groupings, not across them. On the web you best build an audience by organising a claque and stroking its prejudices. Extend elaborate courtesy to people you agree with and boorish contempt to those who do not get it. Celebrate exasperation and incivility as marks of intellectual authenticity ? an attitude easier to tolerate in teenagers under hormonal stress than in professors at world-class universities.
