Parliamentary Government in Australia
Angebote / Angebote:
Alan Ward combines constitutional history and political science to compare all nine of Australia's political systems, federal, state and territory, from colonial times to the present. Guided by a model of parliamentary government drawn from comparative politics, he considers the following key topics: the selection of the government, the prime minister and cabinet, government control of the lower house, the primacy of the lower house in bicameral systems, the head of state, the influence of Australian federalism on parliamentary government, and the growth of executive democracy in Australia. Ultimately, Ward argues that as only one of Australia's nine constitutions accurately describes parliamentary government as practiced in the country, it is a democratic imperative that the other eight should be rewritten.
