    How we lost the boys, and how to bring them back

    • Cherie Gilmour
    • 09 May 2025

    As young men gravitate toward the manosphere, driven by alienation and grievance, society too often responds with silence or scorn. But if we don’t want boys shaped by bitterness and bravado, we must ask: what kind of men do we hope they’ll become, and who is offering them a path to get there?

    • Paul Smyth
    • 08 May 2025

    The 2025 election marked a pause in Australia’s political life. As old policy narratives falter, we have an opportunity to ask ourselves: what kind of society are we trying to build? Across faiths and traditions, the idea of the common good offers a path forward beyond division and drift.

    Public and private faces

    • Andrew Hamilton
    • 07 May 2025

    In an election full of surprises, the most revealing were not electoral upsets but glimpses of unexpected humanity. Peter Dutton’s gracious concession contrasts with his public record, and urges a politics where words don’t wound, and dignity is not reserved for private life alone.

    Politics without glitter, victory without fury

    • Peter Craven
    • 05 May 2025

    While much of the world drifts toward political extremes, Australia did something quietly radical: it chose the centre. In a night of subdued triumphs and unexpected grace, it was a reminder that democracy’s strength may still lie in its capacity for moderation, mercy, and surprise.

    Robert Manne and the responsibilities of a public life

    • Andrew Hamilton
    • 02 May 2025

    • Andrew Hamilton
    • 01 May 2025

    Three elections, three systems, one shared question: what kind of person should lead? As voters and cardinals choose their next leaders, attention turns from policy to personality — to character, courage, and conviction.

    • Andrew Hamilton
    • 24 April 2025

    Why Australians with disabilities are still left behind

    • Adam Hughes Henry
    • 22 April 2025

    By any measure of moral progress, a society should be judged by how it treats those who are most vulnerable. Yet in Australia, people with disabilities continue to be treated not as citizens with equal standing, but as problems to be managed; an inconvenience to be contained within a labyrinth of bureaucratic delay and economic rationalisation.

    • 16 April 2025

    In the lead up to Easter, the story of a man welcomed with palms and crucified days later takes on renewed urgency. In an age of closed borders and hardened politics, the Easter message casts a sharp light on how we treat the stranger, the exile, and the dispossessed.
