Australian voters ousting a nine-year-old Coalition government. A step towards instituting a First Nations Voice to Parliament. Rising tension between China and the US. Entrenched structures of authority have been challenged at home and around the world this year.

2022: Reckoning With Power and Privilege is a collection of The Conversation's most insightful essays from leading thinkers, explaining the potent forces that continue to shape our world - the winding back of abortion rights in the US, relations redefined in the Pacific, the UK Prime Minister forced to resign - and how those with the privilege of power don't always prevail.

Here is the inside guide to 2022's momentous events, bookended by the brutal invasion of Ukraine and a new head of the Commonwealth (not forgetting Shane Warne's sudden death, the wrapping up of Neighbours, and the rise of TikTok), written by the experts you can trust.
