Shanto Iyengar and Sean Westwood—Fear and Loathing across Party Lines: New Evidence on Group Polarization →
This paper shows the extent of the politicism I talked about in "Economics Is Unemotional—And That's Why It Could Help Bridge America's Partisan Divide" and "Twitter Debate on "Politicism" (Political Prejudice)."

I learned of this paper from Amanda Ripley's June 30, 2017 Wall Street Journal article "America, Meet America: Getting Past Our Toxic Partisanship," subtitled "Bringing back U.S. exchange programs could help remind citizens what we all have in common."
