Griffith REVIEW 36: What Is Australia For? [04.10.2011]

It is time to revive the debate about national identity. The clichĂ©s of old have long exceeded their use-by date. This is a trying time of global transition and uncertainty, for societies and for individuals. Yet it is also a time when Australia has remarkable advantages – advantages it must build on if the nation is to prosper.

The Griffith REVIEW is looking for submissions for its 36th volume titled: What Is Australia For? Deadline for submissions: 16 December 2011 Early submissions encouraged Publication date: 7 May 2012

Instead of seizing the moment, and forging an exciting new future, public discussion is mired in the past. Politics is no longer the art of the possible. Whingeing has replaced can-do. What Is Australia For? will sketch out visionary ideas for the future, uncover neglected stories from the past, and provide an exciting forum for new voices to make their case.
