Labor Party

On January 20, 1942, fifteen men arrived for a meeting in a luxurious villa on the shores of the Wannsee in the far-western outskirts of Berlin. They came at the invitation of Reinhard Heydrich and were almost all high-ranking Nazi Party, government, and SS officials. But the beauty of the situation stood in stark contrast to the purpose of the meeting to which the fifteen had come in January 1942: the “Final Solution of the Jewish Question.”

Paul Keating was one of the most forceful, controversial, and consequential leaders in modern Australian political history. From Bankstown to Blaxland, from the Treasury benches to the Lodge, Keating helped reshape the country’s economy, Labor’s identity, and Australia’s sense of itself. As Treasurer under Bob Hawke, he was central to the reforms that floated the Australian dollar, opened the financial system, reshaped taxation, and forced Australia out of the protected habits of the postwar order. Those reforms made the country more competitive and more exposed, more modern and more ...

For more than fifty years, working people in the United States have seen their wages stagnate, their jobs disappear, and their political influence collapse—while billionaires consolidate unprecedented wealth and power. Today, millions of voters feel politically homeless, alienated from both major parties and skeptical that either one is capable of delivering real change.
