On Privilege by Julian Burnside

1.0

Not especially well-written

sean67's review

4.0

Burnside eloquently relates privilege in a few different contexts, including the idea of having the privilege of arguing against the Bush government and it's war on Iraq and the succession of Australian governments treatment of asylum seekers in detention centres (concentration camps really) and even the Bill Henson art controversy with Hetty Johnston's hysterical argument, even though as he points out she really hadn't seen the photos.
Burnside argues well and takes you along for a meandering but sustained argument.
Well worth a read.
