Dunkelman, fellow at Brown University’s Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs, discusses his must-read book “Why Nothing Works: Who Killed Progress―and How to Bring It Back.” He outlines how well-intentioned progressive instincts to increase dialogue and input have inadvertently created a bureaucratic system of “vetocracy,” increased government overregulation and inefficiency, while stifling U.S. manufacturing and innovation that hinders progress.
