Australia's leading voices on politics and policy examine the first Albanese Government.
From the narrow election victory to the commanding majority secured in 2025, this book traces the Albanese Government's first term, navigating economic turbulence and a shifting international landscape. What were the policy hits and misses? What was the impact of the failed Voice referendum? And how did the government manage key reforms?
With a preface by Bill Shorten, and contributions from leading scholars, including Frank Bongiorno, Rae Cooper, Liz Allen and more, this book captures the major issues of the Albanese Government's first term and looks towards their future years in government.
