A collection of superbly readable pieces on politics and society, Australia and Eastern Europe by eminent Sydney law professor and Boyer lecturer, Martin Krygier.
Like many Australians, the author is both an insider and outsider, a "cultural hybrid" whose ideas are formed by the history and culture of his refugee parents and the values of modern Australian society. It is from this position that Krygier provides his unique analysis of the differences among cultures, the role of government, law and civil values.
In this powerful, reflective collection, Krygier looks at the end of communism, Keith Windschuttle, the liberalism of fear and Cassandra Pybus on James McAuley, amongst other things.
