Join
us to celebrate the launch of The
New Zealand Project by Max Harris
When 5.30pm for 6.00pm Tuesday 11 April Where Royal Society of New Zealand 11 Turnbull Street, Thorndon, Wellington Māmari Stephens in conversation with Max Harris By any measure, New Zealand must confront monumental issues in the years ahead. From the future of work to climate change, wealth inequality to new populism – these challenges are complex and even unprecedented. Yet why does New Zealand’s political discussion seem so diminished, and our political imagination unequal to the enormity of these issues? And why is this gulf particularly apparent to young New Zealanders? These questions sit at the centre of Max Harris’s ‘New Zealand project’. This book represents, from the perspective of a brilliant young New Zealander, a vision for confronting the challenges ahead. Unashamedly idealistic, The New Zealand Project arrives at a time of global upheaval that demands new conversations about our shared future. All welcome, no RSVP necessary For more information, contact julia@bwb.co.nz or go to the BWB website. |
