Event: Launch of 'The Adolescent Country', a Lowy Institute Paper by Peter Hartcher

On Thursday, 6 November, the Lowy Institute is pleased to host to a cocktail party to celebrate the launch of The Adolescent Country, a Lowy Institute Paper by Peter Hartcher. Drawing on exclusive interviews with prime ministers and foreign ministers and other policymakers, Gold Walkley award–winning journalist Peter Hartcher argues Australia needs to shake off its ‘provincial reflex’ and become a mature participant in global affairs.

This is the second in the new series of Lowy Institute Papers, published by Penguin Australia.

Peter Hartcher is the author of several books and essays, and is the political and international editor of the Sydney Morning Herald, and a Lowy Institute Nonresident Fellow. He has worked as a foreign correspondent in Tokyo and Washington, and has broken some of the biggest stories in Australian foreign policy and public life.
