Do today's politicians have the courage to make hard choices? Or has the furious pace of modern politics put an end to the age of reform? In Quiet Achievers, Oliver Hartwich looks at New Zealand's record on spending, tax and welfare. He discovers that while Australia has been avoiding difficult decisions, the New Zealanders have been silently forging ahead. The R.G. Menzies Essay series is a forum for enlightened public debate commissioned by the Menzies Research Centre Oliver Hartwich is Executive Director of The New Zealand Initiative. Series Editor: Nick Cater "A perceptive analysis of the Key playbook" - Ruth Richardson "A message that resonates across the Tasman" - Henry Ergas

"This is a very timely book, as it addresses not only why there is a deepening moral abyss in this country, but also considers what Australia needs to do to avoid the pitfalls of other Western countries.Unlike many armchair theorists or disheartened clerics, the author has spent a lifetime at the coal face. He is therefore uniquely placed to understand why many denominations seek the wrong zeitgeist solutions to the religious inertia, apathy and disinterest which are threatening to overwhelm both churches and communities."
