Do you feel like the world is increasingly destabilising?
We have a war in Europe; curtailing of freedoms in China and growing tensions around Taiwan's position; we see the subjugation of women's rights in the US. That's on top of ongoing famines and conflicts in Africa; dire reports about the state of global warming; and a world economy that's bracing for recession and down turns in many countries.
What's Australia's role in all of this? And how can we make sense of a world order in flux?
