This introductory text provides a look at the core elements of Australian government including the constitution, federalism, parliament, cabinet, the public service, political parties and pressure groups. There are case studies, questions for discussion and learning objectives throughout. The authors show how Australia's political institutions really work and presents a modern study of Australian government by analyzing political institutions as arenas in which real political struggles take place and are often, as institutions, in dire need of reform.
