Griffith Review 62: The Novella Project VI

In 2017, Australians made it clear that their understanding of equality included formal recognition of the most intimate relationships. The parliament responded to the voice of the people and passed legislation to allow same-sex marriage. A year later, Griffith Review 62: All Being Equal investigated what this means: is it a sign of a new-found appetite for equality? The primacy of love and family? A measure of a flawed political process? Or the mark of a new approach to political decision-making? All Being Equal explores the texture of equality in all its forms, bringing to life the big issues in the national narrative and the stories around them.
