The Center for Governance and Markets invited scholars to discuss readings that serve as the theoretical and empirical foundations of the project, Governing Deep Differences. This project examines factors explaining how individuals and communities overcome difference, drawing on modus vivendi approaches to pluralism and polycentric theories of governance. The workshop readings analyzed these issues from theoretical and practical perspectives.
