About this event
American Troubles is a 40-minute film that explores whether proportional representation could break the cycle of dysfunction, drawing comparisons from two striking case studies: Portland, Oregon, where a bold new voting system is reshaping local politics, and Northern Ireland, where proportional elections helped end decades of violent conflict ("The Troubles"). Blending history, reform, and human stories, the film shows how electoral rules can entrench division - or create space for compromise.
We will watch the film, have a brief discussion, and follow the event with dinner and drinks at nearby Foley's Irish Pub.
