YESTERDAY Buraadja provides a powerful account of the Liberal Party's approach to Indigenous affairs. The party's record of successes and failures is frankly evaluated as an important basis for developing effective approaches to persistent problems. TODAY The problems faced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people today are considered through two contrasting lenses: the extremist lens of the Black Lives Matter movement, and the moderate lens of the Uluru Statement from the Heart. The Uluru Statement is shown to offer a modest approach to addressing problems by recognising Indigenous peoples in the Constitution, making agreements, and coming to terms with Australia's history. TOMORROW Andrew Bragg draws on liberal values to make a compelling case for national reconciliation in Australia. He offers some practical suggestions for remembering our history, listening to Indigenous people, and planning for the future.

In late 2023, Australians voted 'No' to recognising Indigenous peoples through a constitutional Voice. Broken Heart unpacks the true, complex history of the referendum, illuminating how an alliance between Indigenous advocates and constitutional conservatives fractured under political pressure, and a proposal conceived in compromise was killed by partisan politics. Told from the unique insider perspective of a constitutional lawyer who worked closely with Noel Pearson on the Voice for over a decade, this book analyses the mistakes of the government and 'Yes' advocates, the fickleness and ultimate intransigence of the right, and the betrayals and lies that led to the referendum's defeat. Broken Heart tells a story of hope and tragedy. But its lessons will assist future reformers and leaders who want to make Australia a better place. 'This is the story of a broken heart and of a large one. Shireen Morris has written an indispensable account of the hard way of the constitutional reformer in this country. An enthralling tale of hope, commitment and goodwill, as well as mendacity, opportunism and betrayal.' Frank Bongiorno 'Powerful and moving . . . Broken Heart is an erudite and forensic analysis of a nation-defining political campaign, ultimately destroyed by betrayal and self-interest. It challenges us to learn, reflect and remain energised if we are to become a better, fairer country.' Larissa Behrendt 'Honest and accurate . . . Shireen's analysis of the complex political and legal landscape in the lead-up to the referendum, and the extreme racism suffered by mob across the country, provides all Australians with valuable lessons. A must read.' Dr Dani Linder 'An indispensable account of the 2023 referendum – its genesis, its tortuous political journey and its tragic failure. Marked by fearless analysis and resolute defiance in the face of defeat, this book raises urgent questions for Australia's future.' Mark McKenna 'This is a true story.' Noel Pearson

This new book was written whilst Andrew has been in the Parliament, principally between July 2019 and February 2020. Few understand superannuation well and the industry has revelled in its opacity for 30 years. It is Australia's biggest closed shop. The point of this monograph is to encourage the nation to change direction on super. Not to junk it, but to make it work. Put simply, if it isn't working, why are we doing it? As Australia faces the Coronavirus, it is clear the nation cannot afford indulgences that do not work."

Catholic social teaching had a venerable influence on Australian political history, but does it still have anything to offer? Greg Craven argues that it remains an important resource for addressing the central challenges of Australian politics. In doing so, he considers the case put forward by Tim Wilson in The New Social Contract for liberalism, Adrian Pabst's analysis of Labor's unique approach to social democracy in Story of Our Country, and Damien Freeman's account of conservatism in Abbott's Right. His critique of liberalism, social democracy, and conservatism from the perspective of Catholic social teaching offers a vision for how Australian political debate might be done better. Five essayists, including Kevin Rudd and Tony Abbott, offer their own thoughts on the future of politics and policy, and the utility of Catholic social teaching as a resource for policy-making in their responses to Craven's analysis.

What are they saying about his new book: Jim Kennedy AO 'We need more Keith DeLacys in the Queensland Government.' - John Roskam;'DeLacy weaves together a tale of family, sport, politics, and business with candour, humanity, and profound insight. Anyone who wants to understand modern Australia must read this important and significant work.' - Gary Johns: 'When he became Treasurer in the Wayne Goss government he knew that Labor had a bad reputation for reckless spending. He set about making sure that he would not repeat the mistakes of other administrations. He succeeded. De Lacy has had a celebrated career after politics as a company director and entrepreneur. - Don Nissen: 'I met Keith DeLacy in the early 1990's ... We shared mutual friends & a deep love of sport soon becoming close friends ourselves. This friendship has grown over the 25 plus years since & remains something that I treasure today.' - Sir Leo Hielscher AC: 'What an achiever. What a friend... Keith DeLacy has had a remarkable and one of the most extensive and successful careers of any person I know.' - Martin Kriewaldt'Queensland was fortunate to have had a man of courage, common sense and practical experience: at the controls at exactly that moment when opportunity came knocking. Fortunately, his CV omitted to mention a Ph.D. from the University of Life and Hard Knocks. This is sometimes better than a Harvard MBA.' - Jennifer Marohasy: 'He knew everyone that mattered and tells some of their story as well as his - that begins with communist tobacco growers back in the 1930s. This the history of Queensland, and also of politics, and how one man grew and changed with it.' - Graham Young: 'With a personal trajectory from tobacco, tin mining, sugar, Communism and dirt-floored houses to the glittering glass towers of Brisbane, Keith's personal story is an inspirational Queensland yarn. It refreshes & enlightens a century of Queensland history.' - Nick Trompf: 'His legacy for Cairns is considerable, not just the key role he played in establishing James Cook University's campus, the city's art gallery or the world-acclaimed Convention Centre but also the leadership he showed for numerous local organisations...'

In creating the scholarships that bear his name, Cecil Rhodes had two great objectives: the promotion of public-spirited leadership and of harmony between nations. His vision was that these could be achieved by giving life-changing educational opportunities to outstanding young people with 'instincts to lead', and so contributing to a network of people-to-people relations between countries. In this volume, the former global head of the Rhodes Scholarships, Dr Donald Markwell - the first Rhodes Scholar to hold that position - discusses how good leadership can be promoted, drawing on examples of leaders from Nelson Mandela to Margaret Thatcher, as well as other leaders in politics, education, culture, intellectual thought, and more. The vision of Cecil Rhodes to promote international peace through scholarships that would create 'educational relations' between countries is illustrated here through the experience of the German Rhodes Scholarships in the 20th century, and points to the value of scholarships to engage China and other countries in the 21st century. A scholar of international relations, Dr Markwell also discusses other approaches to promoting peace and preventing war. In papers from his experience as Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Education) of the University of Western Australia and as Warden of Rhodes House, Oxford, Dr Markwell discusses the spirit of a university, the value of liberal education, and the importance of collegiate education and of student engagement in the extra-curricular life of a university campus. These are educational values which the Rhodes Scholarships have promoted, and which are important to prepare students well for the challenges of a century of global forces and rapid change.

Why a book about a ship called Wyatt Earp? The year 2019 marked the 100th anniversary since the launch of a solid, wooden ship built in 1918-1919 in Molde, Norway. At the time she was named M/S Fanefjord (Motorskip/Motorship). She was not built as a fishing vessel, as many have claimed, but as a useful coastal trading ship--an all-rounder! Initially carrying cargo from Norway to England, and then from England to France, she was then active trading around the European coast and as far north as Greenland. There was occasionally some fishing, particularly off Greenland in the summer of 1925, which was a notable season. Fanefjord was launched on 27 September 1919. A century after her launch, on 27 September 2019, the Australian Antarctic Division joined with the Norwegian Ambassador to Australia to host a luncheon in Hobart to commemorate this amazing little ship and her many legacies. In 1933, after an uneventful career as a merchant vessel, she caught the eye of the Australian explorer, Sir Hubert Wilkins. He was searching for a suitable ship on behalf of the wealthy American Lincoln Ellsworth. Wilkins had already been part of expeditions and flights in both the Arctic and Antarctic. Ellsworth, too, had been involved in several Arctic journeys and now had grand plans for Antarctic voyages of exploration and Antarctic aviation feats never before achieved. M/S Fanefjord, named M/V Wyatt Earp (Motor Vessel) by her new owner, went on to travel as far from her home port of Ålesund as was possible, making five trips to the Antarctic, four with Lincoln Ellsworth and Hubert Wilkins between 1933 and 1939 and one for the newly formed Australian National Antarctic Research Expedition in 1948-1949. As well as commemorating the centenary of her launching in Norway, the Hobart gathering also recalled that on 24 January 1959, nearly 40 years after she was launched and 60 years before the centenary event, the ship grounded on a stormy night, on a normally warm and sunny Queensland beach, never to sail again. It was to be her grave. (From the Introduction)
