Have American elites and everyday Americans drifted apart — and can that be fixed? In this episode of Project Cosmos, a production of ISI, we bring together leading thinkers to explore how the U.S. economy shifted from mid-century industrial giants (Ford, GM, IBM) to an intellectual-property-driven, capital-light model, and what that's meant for immigration, the industrial base, and national security.

Featuring: Oren Cass, Brent Parton, Michael Lind, Helen Andrews, Julius Krein and Johnny Burtka
