Project Republic: Plans and Arguments For a New Australia edited by Benjamin T Jones and Mark McKenna

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges.

It's time for some straight talking about Australia's future. We need a head of state who shares a genuine affinity with our country. True independence does not require us to relinquish affection for the Queen or downplay excitement about a royal birth or wedding. Rather it is a chance for national renewal, and to lend an Australian dignity to the highest office in the land. In short- to decide what kind of country we want to live in.

Featuring forewords by Malcolm Turnbull and Wayne Swan, Project Republic unites a range of passionate Australian voices to show why Australia must become a republic - and how we get there from here. Henry Reynolds , Thomas Keneally , Larissa Behrendt , John Hirst , Julian Morrow , Helen Irving , Mark Tredinnick , John Warhurst , David Morris , George Williams , Joy McCann , Erika Smith , Anthony Dillon , Paul Picking , James Curran , David Donovan , George Winterton.
