The load-bearing wall: Vale Dr Harley Dale (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For the better part of two decades, Dr Harley Dale was the load-bearing wall of Australian housing economics. Not the loudest voice. Not the most politically convenient one. But the one doing the structural work, writes Professor Vince Hooper. IN RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION, a load-bearing wall is the one nobody thinks about until it is gone. It carries the weight of everything above it: the joists, the roof trusses, the rooms where people sleep. It does not announce itself. It is not the feature w
Australia-China university collaborations under the microscope (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Australian Government is a day late and a dollar short when it comes to Australian-Chinese research collaborations, writes Professor Vince Hooper, likening it to the subprime lending practices that led to a global financial crisis.

In Suva, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese signed the Ocean of Peace Alliance with Fiji's PM, Sitiveni Rabuka, making Fiji Australia's fourth formal defence ally. In the South China Sea, a People's Liberation Army Navy submarine launched a ballistic missile carrying a dumm
AUKUS: Its single point of obsolescence (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A timeline is not a delivery date, and a single shipyard carrying the weight of both a national deterrent and a trilateral alliance remains exactly what the title suggests: a single point of obsolescence, writes Professor Vince Hooper. ANDY BURNHAM HAS BEEN PRIME MINISTER for ten days and has already discovered the one town in England that Whitehall cannot ignore. On Thursday he travelled to Barrow-in-Furness, a Cumbrian settlement of fewer than 70,000 people that happens to be the only place in
