DARK HORSEY says-Manne charts the degradation of Australia's political & social culture under John Howard, especially the ideals of a university within the rapid corporatization of the Education Centre. If you get annoyed at a University student being termed a"customer"or"client", you should read this book.Looks at winner-loser social division, country-city divide, Hansonism, the refugee 'crisis', stymied republicanism & Aboriginal reconcilliation - & more. Though an intelletual, Manne was formerly a Liberal Party supporter. The book registers his disenchantment. |
