VCE Foundation: the language of comparison; compare-and-contrast techniques

July 26, 2021

Language of comparison

I like the compare and contrast structure of the following letter. It is useful for your own comparisons, as well as for book pairs.

“Opaque arrangements” by Allan Patience

“It is surely ironic that the Morrison government has put up $7 million to fund the Robert Menzies Institute. No government in living memory has been more hostile to universities.

Conversely, there has been no greater champion of public universities in this country’s history than Sir Robert Menzies.

Even more ironic is the appointment of Peta Credlin to the board of the institute and Georgina Downer as its executive director – two people whose adherence to the dogma of neoliberalism is the antithesis of everything that Menzies stood for.”  Allan Patience, Newport
