Poli Sci Professors React to Andor (Season 2, Eps. 4–6) – Too Much Information

Two political science professors react to Andor Season 2, Episodes 4-6. We break down the politics of these episodes, focusing on the mirrored political challenges faced by figures from the Empire and the Rebellion. We see a big theme of these episodes as “too much information,” as both sides struggle to distinguish friend from foe, signal from noise, the authentic from the inauthentic. We discuss classic political problems portrayed in the episodes such as collective action problems, anticipatory compliance, preference falsification, and treating people as means or as ends in and of themselves. And we discuss the leadership styles of Luthen Rael, Saw Gerrera, Cassian Andor, and other major figures on both sides. #Andor #StarWars #PoliticalScience #ProfessorsReact #AndorSeason2 #AndorReaction #StarWarsBreakdown
