Drawing on new research from regional Australia, Brian Costar and Jennifer Curtin look at why independents are gaining support, how they relate to the major parties, and how they exercise power in state and federal parliaments. They trace the history of independent MPs since federation and profile the highly successful independent member for Calare, Peter Andren.
