2026-10-28
Dr. Stephen Farnsworth is a Professor Emeritus of Political Science and International Affairs at the University of Mary Washington. The Learning Curve student editorial team interacted with him during his visit to Lady Shri Ram College for Women as a Fulbright Scholar. The discussion explored these areas: political humour as an acceptable form of criticism, the evolving definition of ‘freedom’, the role of politician’s personality and their social media presence in shaping public opinion, the challenge of using AI in election campaigns, the role of critical thinking to navigate misinformation and manipulation, and the presence of persons with disabilities (PwD) in the US politics.
