How can Australia be both open and shut? Pro-immigrant, yet anti-asylum seeker? A place where the most dominant workers of our global economy are women, but the institutions of government, media and business remain in the hands of men?
In this book, journalist George Megalogenis investigates the political, social and economic issues dividing the nation: new vs old, city vs bush, and the inner city vs the rest. Using secret race polling conducted by the main political parties, he confronts the question of our times: have we become a more xenophobic society? The answers will surprise.
