AWW23: Big: The Role of Government - Richard Denniss, Alan Kohler & Wayne Swan
26 Mar 2023
Chair: Paul Barclay Brought to you by The Australia Institute in partnership with Adelaide Writers’ Week Democracy thrives on high expectations. The less faith people have in government, the more people shun the project of democracy. The idea that government spending, regulation and ownership can significantly improve the lives of most Australians is so derided it’s almost never seriously discussed. But during the pandemic, and now with wages, inflation and climate action, we see that’s exactly what Australians want: for the role of Government to go BIG. Event details: Mon 06 Mar, 12:00pm on the North Stage
