BRICS: the eulogy for western dominance?

The world's economic centre of gravity is moving from the Atlantic toward Asia. This reflects the rise of China and India and the dynamism of the BRICS.

Gen Z is not ageing into the old Australia
Kosmos Samaras

Gen Z is not ageing into the old Australia

Why Australia’s Gen Z is unlike any voting cohort before it and why every institution built for the old Australia is about to find out.

The productivity obsession has a measurement problem
Ross Gittins

The productivity obsession has a measurement problem

The focus on productivity as the key to economic growth ignores the fact that we can't directly observe productivity. We need better ways to measure improvements in overall living standards.

A nature-based food revolution
Julian Cribb

A nature-based food revolution

Forget AI. The technological advance that will save the most human lives is being led by two million Indian farmers, who are pioneering advanced natural food production in a revolutionary movement that is spreading almost by the hour.

Gavin A. Wood, Rachel Ong ViforJ , Christopher Phelps, Susan J Smith

New supply won't fix housing while investors keep winning

Kim Carr

Australia must have an ambitious research policy to underpin economic transformation

In a speech marking the 20th anniversary of the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS), Kim Carr warns that Australia cannot build future prosperity on population growth, property and resource extraction alone – it must invest seriously in the scientific capability that drives innovation.
