About The Bogan Delusion:

Nothing defies cultured Australia's sense of itself more than the bogan – that boorish, racist, drunken, sexist, bethonged, Barnesy-loving embarrassment out there in the back blocks.

And it reveals that the bogan so widely feared is really nothing more than a bogey: a convenient excuse for some never to venture beyond the cafe-lined cocoon of the inner city. But what is the idea of bogans doing to us all?
