Trivial Pursuit: Leadership and the End of the Reform Era by George Megalogenis

This event is now complete.

George Megalogenis considers what has happened to politics in Australia. He dissects the cycle of polls, focus groups and presidential politics and explores what it has done to the prospect of serious, difficult reform and the style of our leaders. He argues that politics-as-usual has become a self-defeating game and mounts a persuasive case for a different model of leadership.

Megalogenis will be interviewed by Lindsay Tanner.
