• The Road to Ruin: how Tony Abbott and Peta Credlin destroyed their own government

    WINNER OF THE 2017 AUSTRALIAN BOOK INDUSTRY AWARDS, GENERAL NON-FICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR WINNER OF THE 2016 MELBOURNE PRESS CLUB LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD ‘There will be no wrecking, no undermining, and no sniping.’–Tony Abbott, 15 September 2015 Abbott’s performances in the party-room debates on education and climate change had ranged between woeful and pathetic. He sounded desperate, he was inconsistent, and — his colleagues thought — slightly ridiculous. They knew he would never stop going after cheap headlines during soft interviews where he sucked up the oxygen, with revisio... [Read More]

  • The Prime Minister's Christmas Card: Blue Poles and Cultural Politics in the Whitlam Era

    Jackson Pollock's Blue Poles was hailed as a masterpiece by Prime Minister Gough Whitlam when it was acquired for a record price by the Australian National Gallery in 1973. But far from being the jewel in Whitlam's cultural crown, the painting became instead a symbol of the Whitlam Government's flamboyance, extravagance, and excess.Both political history and cultural analysis, The Prime Minister's Christmas Card traces the events surrounding the notorious purchase of Blue Poles and the life of the ill-fated Whitlam Government. It provides a fascinating glimpse into Australia's social, cultural... [Read More]

  • Quarterly Essay 61 Balancing Act: Australia Between Recession and Renewal

We will either catch the next wave of prosperity, or finally succumb to the Great Recession.In this urgent essay, George Megalogenis argues that Australia risks becoming globalisation’s next and most unnecessary victim. The next shock, whenever it comes, will find us with our economic guard down, and a political system that has shredded its authority.Megalogenis outlines the challenge for Malcolm Turnbull and his governm...

  • Resilient

    Not all cricket legends are forged easily - sometimes you have to conquer yourself before you can conquer the world. Mitchell Johnson is a once-in-a-generation Australian cricketer; a devastating left-arm fast bowler who became a household name following his epic performance in the 2013-14 Ashes series and the subsequent Test series against South Africa. But behind the cult image and fearsome pace bowling is an unforgettable story of perseverance and persistence. The story of how a shy 17-year-old champion tennis player was plucked from obscurity and anointed by Dennis Lillee is the stuff of s... [Read More]

  • Down Under Dreaming: Travels in Australia

    Follow in the many footsteps of a curious traveller in search of roos, poos, Tassie tigers, lost prime ministers and the wild, weird and wonderful that is Australia. Professional author Dr Terry Marsh has been visiting Australia for many years, making copious notes and interpreting his finds from a perspective that blends observation with a wry northern England sense of humour, and, if he's being honest, sampling the wine and great food rather a lot, too. It all comes together in an idiosyncratic blend of people and places, flora and fauna, long drives and even longer rail journeys.

    The first volume in a series of comparative studies within the ESRC's Whitehall Programme focuses on core executives in five parliamentary democracies comparing the Westminster model as in Australia, Canada and Britain with the continental democracies of Germany and the Netherlands showing how political leadership is shackled by a vast array of constraints, from globalisation to internal fragmentation and rationalisation, making a heroic model of decisive political leadership hard to sustain.
