Issues/Current Affairs

Money makes the world go around, but when it stops the consequences are profound - from Masters of the Universe who lose their magical touch, to remote communities where the unwritten laws of money, sex and power are challenged, power can disappear with astonishing speed.

A series of key essays explore the nexus between sex, money and power. Creed O'Hanlon writes for the first time about the delusions of power in a riveting essay. Marcia Langton dissects the abusive style of big bunga politics in Indigenous communities and its profound consequences.

All these issues and more are explored in a mix of essays, memoirs and stories that deal with the big issues in a way that is personal, political and unpredictable - but always engaging and readable.

This summer issue of Griffith REVIEW will provide new insights and showcase some of the finest writers in country.
