2022: Reckoning with Power and Privilege The Conversation (Edited By Michael Hopkin) As 2022 unfolded, we saw power manifest in its various guises: Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine in February 2022; the COVID pandemic and its international disruptions continued to shape lives globally and abortion laws changed monumentally in the US. In Australia, the power of voters changed the government after almost a decade of growing frustration with politics-as-usual. Debate continued about enshrining a First Nations Voice to Parliament, and there was the power of sporting legends such as the late, great Shane Warne to unite us all. 2022: Reckoning With Power and Privilege is a collection of The Conversation’s most insightful essays from leading thinkers, explaining how and why these potent forces continue to shape our world, and how those with the privilege of power don’t always prevail. Contributors include: Bronwyn Carlson, Jacob Deem, Prudence Flowers, Michelle Grattan, 224 pages, 234 x 153 (PB) Thames & Hudson Australia Matthew Horney, Peter Martin, Denis Muller, Kate Power, Chris Wallace, Hugh White, Zora Simic, Tim AU$32.99 Soutphommasane, Paul Strangio, Ariadne Vromen. ALSO AVAILABLE No, You’re Not Entitled to Your Opinion And 49 Other Essays That Got the World Talking From its early days as an unknown start-up, The Conversation published landmark essays such as Patrick Stokes’s ‘No, you’re not entitled to your opinion’, which saw the organisation grow into an important and valued part of the news media. It has since expanded to eight regions around the AU$29.99 world and is published in four languages. Contained within this ten-year anniversary collection are the essays that put The Conversation on the map: contemporary slavery, how Jesus wasn't white, how long sex usually lasts, and the close friendships birds form with people.
