Paul Redding (Sydney) and his ARC funded research project, "The God of Hegel's post Kantian Idealism" (HERE), has been called "wasteful" and "ridiculous," being targeted and ridiculed by the Australian political "Liberal Party" (Austrialia's conservative party).
Australia's Coalition (presumably of the Liberal Party) would like to audit and call under review funds directed to Redding's speculative philosophical project, whose research covers among other topics, Hegel and the philosophy of religion.
University of Sydney's Vice-Chancellor has called the move "distressful."
