Robinson, a labour historian and lecturer in politics, examines how the left's abandonment of socialism allowed it to coexist with neoliberal ideologies, leading to a new form of political strategy that opposed yet mirrored the innovations of conservative leaders like John Howard. Through historical analysis, Robinson highlights the successes and failures of the left, emphasizing the need for humility and understanding of past events to navigate current political challenges. The book addresses themes such as economic rationalism, political correctness, and the division between liberals and populists, aiming to provide a comprehensive description of the political landscape rather than prescriptive solutions. It is intended for scholars, students, and readers interested in Australian politics and the dynamics of political ideologies.$7Generated by AI. 606 $aNeoliberalism$7Generated by AI 606 $aIdeology$7Generated by AI 615 0$aNeoliberalism 615 0$aIdeology 700 $aRobinson$b Geoff$01847519 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9911026039903321 996 $aBeing Left-Wing in Australia$94433215 997 $aUNINA
