When the war in Ukraine began back in February 2022, the remote-controlled unmanned aerial vehicle or drone as its commonly known, was peripheral to the conflict. But three years on, the drone in all its shapes and sizes has taken on a central role in this battle, in the air, on land and at sea, for surveillance, reconnaissance, combat and other purposes. Now drone technology is evolving even further into the area of autonomous weapons. But whilst the drone can offer greater strategic and operational flexibility and a possible reduction in the number of military casualties, there are concerns that the drone, particularly in Ukraine's case, has prolonged the war. Only last year the United Nations reported that 118 countries now had military drones, along with at least 65 non-state actors. And as an increasing number of countries have begun to manufacture and export their own array of military drones, many are concerned about how drone technology is presenting a big challenge in terms of defensive measures. So, on this week's Inquiry, we're asking ‘How are drones changing the landscape of modern warfare?

Have you noticed how Australia's property market seems to have roared back to life recently? After a sluggish 2024, Domain's latest House Price Report shows all eight capital cities recorded house price growth in the June quarter – for the first time in four years. And it's not just houses. Unit prices are surging too, often outpacing houses as buyers chase affordability. So what's behind this rebound? Rate cuts, increased demand, and a lingering supply shortage have all played a role. But is this recovery sustainable? Will further rate cuts continue to fuel prices, or are there headwinds ahead? To help us unpack this, I'm joined by Dr Nicola Powell, Chief of Research and Economics at Domain.  She'll share insights from Domain's June Quarter House Price Report and explain what these trends mean for buyers, sellers, and investors alike. Whether you're a homeowner, an investor, or simply keeping an eye on the market, you'll want to hear what Dr Powell has to say.   Takeaways  ·         Most people only realise the market's turned too late. ·         All eight capital cities recorded house price growth in the June quarter. ·         The turnaround in auction conditions has been very evident across Sydney and Melbourne. ·         First home buyers are looking towards units in Sydney due to affordability. ·         Melbourne's housing market is showing signs of recovery after years of lagging. ·         Brisbane's unit prices are outperforming house prices, indicating a shift in buyer preference. ·         Canberra is on a pathway to recovery, with modest price increases. ·         Every state goes through its cycle, affecting property values differently. ·         Rate cuts are expected to boost buyer confidence and market activity. ·         Understanding local market dynamics is crucial for property investment.   Chapters  00:00 - Introduction to Market Trends 02:15 - Sustainability of the current market recovery and future predictions. 13:30 - Sydney and Melbourne Market Analysis 17:00 - Brisbane and Adelaide Market Trends 20:45 - Canberra and Perth Market Updates 24:00 - Conclusion and Future Outlook   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney's Guide to Investment ·         Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2026 and beyond.   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here    Dr Nicola Powell, Chief of Research and Economics at Domain  https://www.domain.com.au/news/author/dr-nicola-powell/ Domian Property June Quarter House Price Report:  https://www.domain.com.au/research/house-price-report/june-2025/   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for  Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

In Against Identity, philosopher Alexander Douglas seeks an alternative wisdom. Searching the work of three thinkers – ancient Chinese philosopher Zhuangzi, Dutch Enlightenment thinker Benedict de Spinoza, and 20th Century French theorist René Girard – he explores how identity can be a spiritual violence that leads us away from truth. Through their worlds and radically different cultures, we discover how, at moments of historical rupture, our hunger for being grows: and yet, it is exactly these times when we should make peace with our indeterminacy and discover the freedom of escaping our selves. Alexander Douglas was born in Canberra, Australia where he studied music and philosophy. He now teaches the history of philosophy and the philosophy of economics at the University of St Andrews. He has published two books on the philosophy of Benedict de Spinoza and one on the philosophy of debt. He has grown increasingly interested in combining ideas from Western and East Asian philosophy.

We cross the ditch to Canberra to talk to our correspondent Kerry-Anne Walsh.

Join Justin Bassi, Executive Director of the Australian Strategic Policy Institute and former National Security Advisor to Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, and Hoover Senior Fellow H.R. McMaster, as they discuss threats to international security, Australia's role in the Indo-Pacific, and opportunities for Canberra and Washington to work together to promote peace and prosperity. Viewing China's military and technological rise as Australia's top security threat, Bassi discusses the ambitions of the Chinese Communist Party leaders and how Australia and its allies can compete more effectively to counter CCP aggression and prevent a war with China. The US and Australia sharing a deep history since World War I, Bassi reflects on how more recent internal debates are playing out within Australia regarding Trump administration policies, how we can promote a positive agenda to advance our mutual interests, and his views on the future of AUKUS – the alliance between Australia, the US and the UK to strengthen defense and promote a free and open Indo-Pacific.

In Against Identity, philosopher Alexander Douglas seeks an alternative wisdom. Searching the work of three thinkers – ancient Chinese philosopher Zhuangzi, Dutch Enlightenment thinker Benedict de Spinoza, and 20th Century French theorist René Girard – he explores how identity can be a spiritual violence that leads us away from truth. Through their worlds and radically different cultures, we discover how, at moments of historical rupture, our hunger for being grows: and yet, it is exactly these times when we should make peace with our indeterminacy and discover the freedom of escaping our selves. Alexander Douglas was born in Canberra, Australia where he studied music and philosophy. He now teaches the history of philosophy and the philosophy of economics at the University of St Andrews. He has published two books on the philosophy of Benedict de Spinoza and one on the philosophy of debt. He has grown increasingly interested in combining ideas from Western and East Asian philosophy.
