It does have a website now. There was only a construction worker hat there when I tried the various possible web addresses the day I wrote that post, so while I thought that would be its address I decided against including a link that could be wrong.

Certainly, launching the ‘physical’ entity without an internet presence in the current age seems a rather rash beginning. However, any social democratic presence is better than none in the current Australian conservative climate.

Ideally, I would have thought that they wouldn’t have wanted to launch now. To get traction, they need to show that they’re independent from the ALP, just as Demos and IPPR did in the UK (and as Evatt didn’t do in Australia). But the Rudd machine will have a low tolerance of friendly fire in an election year.

With the CIS and the IPA both recently protesting they are not “right wing” (sniffing the wind?) will there be any room at all for another think tank?

On the other hand, Michael Cooney could become very influential if the ALP are not elected and begin the examine the future prospects of social democracy.
