The Australian Policy and History Network held a workshop in November, titled ‘How Australians Should Live: Historical Perspectives on Current Policy Challenges’. The discussion was led by Frank Bongiorno, Nicholas Brown, Bruce Chapman, David Lowe, Meredith Edwards, Stuart Macintyre, Sean Scalmer and John Uhr.
Several members of the Contemporary Histories Research Group presented at this workshop at Australian National University, including Dr Kirstie Close-Barry, Anna Kent, Will Peart and Rebecca Cairns. Papers can now be read on the Australian Policy and History Network website.
