A Test of Political Courage: Yoorrook’s Final Reports Demand Action, Not Amnesia

The Yoorrook Justice Commission reports are powerful and historic. But the question remains: will they change anything?See the Story

How to disappear a problem • Dean Ashenden

Early in 1973 the Karmel committee, created by the new and aggressively reformist Whitlam government, was hard at work devising a way for all schools, including Catholic parish schools and a handful of upmarket private schools, to get public funding. Government schools had towered over the whole system for eighty years or more, and no wonder: they were fully funded while the Catholics and the privates had been cut off without a public penny by t…Read Article

A stitch in crime • Jeremy Gans

When I was a law student in the early nineties, I met a federal prosecutor at a party. I told her that she had my dream job, but that I had one worry: that I’d become hard. “After a while,” I explained, “I’d start to think that all criminal defendants are bastards and all their lawyers are tricksters or worse.” She laughed and told me not to worry. Relieved, I mulled what to ask next: the steps to get where she was? What comes after? But then sh…Read Article

Grave misgivings • Philippa Hawker

In 2021, David Cronenberg released the briefest of short works, made with his daughter Cressida. The Death of David Cronenberg featured the director contemplating a realistic prosthetic corpse laid out in a bed, a body that just happens to be his double. He then climbs into bed alongside his dead self, embracing it with tenderness, a man seemingly in touch with the prospect of his own mortality. The prosthetic corpse was originally made by the s…Australia · AustraliaRead Article

Parents and partners last?

It was the announcement that didn’t happen. The federal government usually enters each new financial year with “planning levels” for the permanent migration program. Typically, these are announced in the federal budget. But not this year. The cynical view is that the government wanted to avoid any mention of immigration so soon before an election. The Coalition was accusing Labor of losing control over the borders and fuelling escalating house p…Australia · AustraliaRead Article

Crimes Act’s cyber tidy-up • Karen Middleton

Just over a week ago, the government did some quiet tidying up. Having made structural changes to a few federal portfolios — most notably shifting the Australian Federal Police and ASIO out of the Attorney-General’s Department and back to Home Affairs where they resided under Coalition governments — Anthony Albanese undertook some further sweeping in the corners. Part of it related to highly sensitive police powers to covertly take over online a…Melbourne, Australia · MelbourneRead Article

Ghosts of dictatorships past • Andrew Bonnell

The world seemed simpler in the 1990s, after the fall of the Berlin Wall and the events it came to symbolise: the collapse of Soviet-backed regimes in Eastern and Central Europe and their replacement by multi-party democracies, the unravelling of the Soviet Union itself, and the end of the cold war. Many believed the ideological conflicts that had made the twentieth century an “age of extremes” were over, and liberal democracy had won. Leaving a…Australia · AustraliaRead Article

The reformer • Emily Millane

For well over a decade, Australian policy-makers, journalists and commentators have been absorbed by the question of whether governments have the capacity for significant reform. Can they deliver the economic reforms necessary to tackle large social issues like intergenerational equality and a broken housing system? The question assumes the various forms of incremental reform we have become accustomed to are inadequate — that it isn’t enough for…Victoria, Australia · VictoriaRead Article

BRICS Aspires to Occupy Global Ground Vacated by US Under Trump

Ever since BRICS was founded more than a decade ago, the group of emerging-market nations has struggled to identify a common purpose. President Donald Trump’s tariffs may have solved that problem.BRICSSee the Story

How China put the bite on Apple • Michael Gill

Apple, the world’s leading manufacturer, epitomises the futility of the US–China tariff wars. Having sailed close to the financial wind in its first iteration, Apple Computer Company (founded by two Steves: Jobs and Wozniak), it became a poster child for American innovation, product excellence and financial muscle in its second life, as Apple Inc. (under Jobs alone). Yet Apple is very much Chinese. Patrick McGee’s revealing new book Apple in Chi…Entrepreneurs · ShenzhenSee the Story

The tools of a composer’s trade

When Jamie Hanson reviewed the documentary Turn Every Page for Inside Story, he singled out a scene — a search for a yellow pencil — that stayed with me too. The writer Robert Caro and his editor of fifty years, the late Robert Gottlieb, have met at the Manhattan offices of Alfred A. Knopf to work on the still-incomplete fifth volume of Caro’s “three-volume biography” of Lyndon Johnson. Finding the pencil they need is proving tricky for these tw…Trade · QueenslandRead Article
