2022: RECKONING WITH POWER AND PRIVILEGE
ESSAYS THAT GOT THE WORLD TALKING
Panel Discussion
Presented by The Bob Hawke Prime Ministerial Centre and The Conversation
Transcript of Noel Pearson's Boyer Lecture, referenced in this Panel Discussion.
A brutal invasion of Ukraine. Australian voters ousting a nine-year-old Coalition government. A step towards instituting a First Nations Voice to Parliament. Grace Tame. Entrenched structures of authority have been challenged at home and around the world this year.
2022: Reckoning With Power and Privilege is a collection of The Conversation’s most insightful essays from leading thinkers about this year’s momentous events.
Join political scientist and journalist Associate Professor Andrea Carson, Business and Economy Editor of The Conversation Peter Martin AM, and Dean of Programs at UniSA Justice and Society Associate Professor Deirdre Tedmanson as they explore the potent forces that continue to shape our world and how those with the privilege of power don’t always prevail with The Conversation’s editor, Misha Ketchell.
