Benjamin Lloyd-Hurwitz has completed a Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics and a Bachelor of Science, and is now finalising his Philosophy honours thesis at ANU College of Arts & Social Sciences. In this episode, he shares his research on Australia’s independents, what their rise means for the nation’s political future, and offers insights into how to get started in political research.
