What cranks Philip Ruddock�s motor? In this issue LINDA JAIVIN unearths
the resourceful ways writers and artists are undermining the empathy
obstacles placed by Howard government ministers: "Asylum seekers who
speak to journalists may be interrogated, threatened and punished,
sometimes with room searches in which their possessions are
�accidentally� damaged." Fiction, theatre and even video games, writes
Jaivin, are successfully hurdling government attempts to impede public
empathy.
