The party played a pivotal role after the 2010 federal election in ensuring the Gillard Government was sustained for 3 years. Although battered in the following Abbott landslide election, the party has survived and grown, to become somewhat of a fixture of Australia politics. However, what do we really know about the Greens in Australia? Is the party really just an extension of the environment movement, or has it matured to a professional party, capable of taking on the ‘big boys’? This book represents an important effort to come to grips with this question, by talking to the people who make the party tick. Who are the members and activists of the party? What do they think about the political and policy winds sweeping Australia in the early 21st century? And has the party made that transition from a home for tree-huggers and alternative lifestylers to a party ready to work in Government? And the answer must be: yes.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: AUItem Height: 212mmItem Length: 144mmItem Width: 20mmItem Weight: 450gAuthor: Stewart JacksonGenre: Law & PoliticsTopic: Science Nature & MathRelease Year: 2016 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
