Educulture Wars

February 2025

Reason magazine

THE CULTURE WAR is costing school districts billions, according to a report released in October 2024 by the UCLA Institute for Democracy, Education, and Access. The report surveyed superintendents at 467 school districts nationwide about extra expenditures they undertook because of increased conflict over culture war issues such as critical race theory, book chal- lenges, gender-related debates, and other politicized topics. The report estimates that such fights cost school districts around $3.2 billion during the 2023-2024 school year.

Educulture Wars

Superintendents reported increased security costs, legal fees, and expendi- tures related to high staff turnover, as well as other culture war spending. One superintendent interviewed for the report said these cultural conflicts, at a level he considered "high," required his district to spend an extra $100,000 to hire "armed plainclothes off-duty officers...because people coming to the board meetings are unpredictable and sometimes violent."

A Nostalgic Read for Foreign Policy Elites

IF YOU WERE looking for a human avatar of America's unipolar moment, you couldn't do better than Michael McFaul. Picture a youthful, energetic McFaul with a newly minted Ph.D. bounding into the suddenly post-Soviet space of the early 1990s, full of bright ideas about democracy and faith in the end of history. As McFaul himself puts it, 1991 \"was a glorious moment to be a democratic, liberal, capitalist, multilateralist, and American....I was treated like a rockstar.\"

MAHA Mandates Food Labels

BURDENSOME FOOD LABELING mandates were once the province of Democrats, who pushed for calorie count requirements on restaurant menus and insisted packaged food must feature warnings about genet- ically modified ingredients and trans fats. Now it's Republicans leading the charge- with equally foolish results.

A Taste of Capitalism in Warsaw

WARSAW, POLAND, IS a living museum of economic systems. It's a city where concrete reliefs of stoic factory workers decorate a building that now houses a Kentucky Fried Chicken, where a Soviet-era apartment block stands beside a glass tower filled with coworking spaces.

IN THE SPRING of 1962, an 18-year-old Robert Crumb was beaned in the forehead by a solid glass ashtray. His mother, Bea, had hurled it at his father, Chuck, who ducked. Robert was bloodied and dazed, once again a silent and enraged witness to his family's chaos.”
