The culture wars are a staple of politics. So why are we so afraid of the ‘C’ word? And what exactly do we mean by culture? Robyn Archer, Jim Hearn, Scott Rankin and Kristina Olsson come together to share their opinions. They explore the motivations behind the bitter political contest over culture in the face of mounting evidence that culture contributes substantially to the economy, as well as to social cohesion and personal well-being. What would a creative society look like? How should its value be measured? Chaired by Griffith REVIEW founding editor, Julianne Schultz.
