The Decline of Political Leadership in Australia?: Changing Recruitment and Careers of Federal Politicians

Autor Jan Pakulski, B. Tranter
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 mar 2015
This book analyses the changing political recruitment of the Australian federal parliamentary elite. It argues that the elite's quality has been reduced to a worrisome degree, especially since the 1990s. It suggests that the declining quality of the Australian 'political class' is a major factor behind the declining public trust in politicians.
