Description:... Annotation. "In keeping with Cocks's willingness and capacity to tackle big issues, Future Makers, Future Takers seeks to identify, detail and compare the broad socio-political philosophies and bundles of policies that comprise Australia's realistic choices for guiding Timeship Australia through the coming turbulent decades. Cocks suspends his own judgment as he even-handedly and comprehensively presents three proactive strategies for managing Australia's future, which he calls Conservative Development, Economic Growth and Post-Materialism."--BOOK JACKET.
