Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Sometimes it seems as if everything has become a culture war. In this sharp, accessible book Tim Dunlop asks why this is so and what that shift - decades in the making - has done to Australian democracy.Moving beyond the idea that culture wars are a mere distraction from 'real' politics, Dunlop argues that disputes over identity, values and belonging have become a driving force of contemporary political life. He shows how these conflicts are not only intensified by political and media systems, but actively weaponised to fragment the electorate and harden social divisions.Ranging from Federation to the Howard era and into the present, this compelling and original account situates Australia's culture wars within a longer history, while revealing how they are now energised by market economics, media concentration, social media and global political movements.This is an unflinching but hopeful account of how culture wars work, how they damage democratic life and how they might yet be defused.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Australian politics is changing.The two-party system is disappearing, and the balance of power is shifting. While these changes might feel fragile, we may just be on the precipice of a transformative era for democracy in Australia.At the 2022 federal election, Australia voted not just for change in individual seats but a realignment of the way in which our political system works.This book is about how that happened.Its also about what we have to do next to ensure these changes are bedded down so that we can move towards being a progressive, open, economically stable and egalitarian nation. A nation so many of us desire.Voices of us tells the inspiring story of the transformation of Australian democracy.Save the world, save our democracy: this book shows how maybe we can do both. Jonathan GreenTim Dunlop puts the rise of the Community Independents in its historical place not a flash in the plan, neither the beginning nor the end of a process, but a crucial step in our democracy. This is an important and easy read for anyone wishing to understand more about how we can reclaim and reshape our politics. Tim HolloTim Dunlop provides a compelling examination of the long-term trends that led to the wave of independents being elected in the 2022 election. Rather than just treat the election in isolation, Voices of us shows how we got here, what it means, and crucially, highlights the powerful forces in politics and the media that will continue to try to reverse the tide. Greg JerichoThe rise of the Voices Of movement has shaken the two-party system in Australia to its foundations, laying the basis for a fundamental realignment in the near future. But most of us know little about the history of the movement or about the theory of politics behind it. Tim Dunlop provides us with both an inside account of the way the movement developed, and an insightful analysis of the challenge it poses to Australias political class. John QuigginA thoughtful, provocative and historically informed analysis of the rise of the independents in the 2022 federal election. Tim Dunlop charts how we arrived at this moment, the institutional failures (and some strengths) in media, political parties and in our sense of citizenship, and the possible ways forward from here, including reconceived democratic forms. This will be an influential book. Margaret SimonsWas the independents success in May 2022 a one-off, Scott Morrison being so on the nose that he generated his nemesis? Tim Dunlop, in this latest study, makes a compelling case in terms of, historically speaking, the long tail of the phenomenon. Sydney Morning Herald/The Age Australian politics is changing. Voices of us looks towards the future with hope and ideas. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …

Paperback. Condition: New. Even as the robots gather on the near horizon this book argues we have choices about the manner in which we greet them. A world without work as we know it could be a good thing.The landscape of work is changing right in front of us, from Uber, Airbnb and the new share economy to automated vehicles, 3D printing and advanced AI. The question isn't whether robots will take our jobs, but what we will do when they do. The era of full-time work is coming to an end and we have to stop holding out the false promise that at some magical moment the jobs are going to reappear. So what does our future in the brave new world of non-work look like?In this timely and provocative book, Tim Dunlop argues that by embracing the changes ahead we might even find ourselves better off. Workless goes beyond the gadgetry and hype to examine the social and political ramifications of work throughout history and into the future. It argues we need to think big now, not wait until we're in a dystopian world of mass unemployment and wealth held in the hands of a minority.…
