Popis: Bridging the cultural divide in social discourse, Part 3: The challenges of practicing intellectual humility with deeply held political attitudes In this third of a five-article series in Open Access Government on the topic of intellectual humility (IH), Peter C. Hill explores why political attitudes have created a cultural divide that makes it difficult for many to be intellectually humble. In Parts 1 and 2 of this series ‘Bridging the Cultural Divide In Social Discourse', I contended that an IH orientation is motivated by a desire for accuracy which, in turn, reflects an inclination to understand more than to persuade or convince. In so doing, one must acknowledge and take ownership of his or her limitations of knowledge and understanding and, in the process, will value the contribution of others, including what one might learn from those with differing perspectives.
