Australian politics is shifting. The two-party system was broken at the last federal election, and another minority government is a real possibility in the future. Politics-as-usual is not enough for many voters.
Discussing his richly insightful essay, Minority Report: The New Shape of Australian Politics, George Megalogenis explores the strategies and secret understandings of a political culture under pressure, in-conversation with Tory Shepherd.
George traces the how and why of a political realignment. This is an essay about the teals, the Greens and the Coalition. In a contest between new and old, progressive and conservative, which vision of Australia will win out? But it's also about Labor in power – is careful centrism the right strategy for the times, or is something more required?
Imprints Booksellers will be selling copies of Quarterly Essay, Minority Report: The New Shape of Australian Politics in the Auditorium foyer on the night of the event.
