  • Summary

  • Fifty years ago, the role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons was created, and despite some initial controversies, it has endured to become a beloved pastime and cultural touchstone for many. But for Colorado State University political science instructor James “Pigeon” Fielder, it’s much more than that.
    To Fielder, D&D — as it’s more commonly known — is a master class in political strategy, everything from diplomacy to alliance forming to conflict resolution. Fielder recently spoke to CSU's The Audit about what a fantasy game filled with sorcerers, warlocks and wizards can teach our political leaders and how it might benefit them — and us — if they started to wage a very different kind of campaign.
