Language: English
Published by Melbourne University Press, 1992
ISBN 10: 0522845371 ISBN 13: 9780522845372
Paperback. , . NB: This is a secondhand book in very good condition. See our FAQs for more information. Please note that the jacket image is indicative only. A description of our secondhand books is not always available. Please contact us if you have a question about this title.Author: Mark Considine (Teacher of Public Policy, University of Melbourne, Australia)Format: Paperback Number of Pages: 292A decade ago the Cain Labor government came to office with a reform agenda seldom matched in postwar Australian politics. Innovation and commitment to change were the hallmarks of the new administration. Landmark policies in the areas of environment and conservation, affirmative action, freedom of information, law reform and occupational health were among the many initiatives which were intended to give Victoria its most progressive government this century. A decade later, a crippled government awaited its end. Prolonged controversies surrounding the sale of the State Bank, the collapse of Tricontinental, the closure of Pyramid Building Society and burgeoning state debt were just a few of the intractable problems which wiped out the promise of further reform and renovation. "Trials in power" is a comprehensive and challenging survey of Labor's decade in office. Here the policies and programmes of the Cain and Kirner governments are subjected to a scrutiny which raises fundamental questions about government in today's Australia. "Mark Costar and Brian Considine are lecturers in Political Science at University of Melbourne.". Paperback.

For Better or for Worse: The Federal Coalition
Language: English
Published by Melbourne University Press, 1994
ISBN 10: 0522846173 ISBN 13: 9780522846171
First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Melbourne, Melbourne University Press, 1994 [1st edition]; 155 x 235 mm, xii, 163 pp, Soft Cover, Near Fine. For better or for worse, two forces have long exercised total dominance over Australian federal politics: the Australian Labor Party and an anti-Labor coalition. For better or for worse, two federal political parties must maintain an uneasy alliance to provide a genuine alternative to the ALP. The past decade has been one of turmoil for the Liberal Party and its partner, the National Party. It has been a time of floundering ideology and leadership uncertainty, which is not yet over. This book, prompted by the loss of the 'unlosable' 1993 election, addresses the issue of whether the federal Coalition is out of touch with reality. Can it resurrect itself from the ashes of successive defeats to remain a dynamic force in Australian government? The Coalition's challenge in this decade is to present its view of society as a relevant and acceptable framework from which to govern. This may mean a reassessment of just what that view is. The Liberal Party in particular needs to provide a cohesive ideological structure on which its supporters can draw. It must quickly resolve leadership issues if it is to provide a united front and a serious challenge at the next federal election. There is an old adage of Australian politics, that elections are lost, not won. This book asks many of the questions that the Coalition must ask itself, if it is to turn this traditional maxim around.
