Australia has forgotten what keeps it safe. So argues Michael Wesley in this sharp and compelling essay about our place in the world. Southeast Asia is the key to our national security and prosperity. If China dominates the region, as it plans to, Australia will be very vulnerable. So why are we following an American strategy that isolates and alienates us from our neighbours? Wesley argues that the focus on AUKUS and sticking with Trump is a dangerous distraction. Whereas the United States has little at stake in Southeast Asia, Australia has everything to lose.

Story3
In this perceptive, compelling essay, Katharine Murphy offers a profile of Anthony Albanese in motion – a piece about character, the balance of forces, and the mood of the nation. Are Albanese and his party up for change? Are Australians up for it? What does the new prime minister embody, if anything? Has the centre of the polity shifted, with the success of the Teals and the Greens? Where could – and should – the new government be ambitious?

Story0
Australien wird oft als eine junge Nation angesehen, die durch die britische Kolonialisierung und die moderne Besiedlung geprägt wurde – doch seine Geschichte reicht weit über die Ankunft der Europäer hinaus. Als Heimat einer der ältesten fortbestehenden Kulturen der Welt entwickelten die indigenen Völker Australiens über Jahrtausende hinweg hoch entwickelte Gesellschaften, Gesetze und Praktiken der Landbewirtschaftung, lange bevor die Erste Flotte 1788 eintraf.

Story0
From the Hillsong Church to the Family First Party, Australia appears to be experiencing an evangelical revival. In the second Quarterly Essay for 2006, Amanda Lohrey investigates that revival - its shape and scope, and what it means for the mainstream churches and the nation's politics. She talks to young believers and analyses the machinations of the Christian Right. She discusses, with humour and insight, the appeal of the megachurch, the changing image of Jesus and the political theories of George Pell and Peter Jensen.
