This book is about the Australian difference. It is about how in economic
and social policy Australia has diverged significantly from comparable
countries. It confronts the defining contours of an Australian
Exceptionalism’: the tight regulation of labour markets; a heavy reliance
on income taxation and means testing; the endurance of a cadaverous
federation and a pervasive bureaucracy; and a readiness to resort to
compulsion in contexts ranging from saving to voting.
What makes Australia so different? This volume brings together econo-
mists, historians, and political scientists to canvass the explanation.
In delving into the question, the book spans a wide range of issues:
Australia’s simultaneously democratic and undemocratic tendencies;
the poverty of her public debate amid a powerful media; the undertow
of religion in a supposedly secular- country; the unexpected role of her
railways as a seedbed of political and administrative cultures; a puzzling
laggardness in the development of her agricultural wealth; the regulation
of Australian sport to benefit—not its players—but its management; as
well as the original encounter between European and Aboriginal societies.
The book suggests that the special path’ that Australia has followed
for over a century is the product of physical circumstances, historical
accidents, fateful choices, and the unique personalities thrown up by a
strange land.
