博客來Australia in 2025 was anything but ordinary.
From a bruising federal election campaign to the collapse of political norms in the US, from Gaza’s devastation to culture-war flashpoints at home, this was a year when power, truth and democracy itself were relentlessly tested.
The Monday Essays brings together the most incisive political writing from Eddy Jokovich and David Lewis, drawing on a year of analysis from the acclaimed New Politics podcast. These essays strip away the spin, challenge media orthodoxies, and expose the forces shaping Australian and global politics beneath the surface.
With clarity, urgency and moral conviction, Jokovich and Lewis examine the weaponisation of fear, the rise of authoritarianism, the failures of Western leadership over Palestine, the declining credibility of institutions, and the uneasy choices facing Australia as global power shifts accelerate.
Provocative and fearless, The Monday Essays is not neutral, and makes no apology for that. It is political writing as it should be: informed, engaged and unafraid to speak plainly.
For readers who want to understand what really happened in Australian politics in 2025 - and why it mattered - this book is an indispensable record.
