By analysing original sources and evaluating conceptual frameworks,
Nicholas Aroney discusses the idea proclaimed in the Preamble to
the Constitution that Australia is a federal commonwealth. Taking
careful account of the influence which the American, Canadian and
Swiss Constitutions had upon the framers of the Australian
Constitution, the author shows how the framers wrestled with the
problem of integrating federal ideas with inherited British
traditions and their own experiences of parliamentary government.
In so doing, the book explains how the Constitution came into being
in the context of the groundswell of federal ideas then sweeping
the English-speaking world. In advancing an original argument about
the relationship between the formation of the Constitution, the
representative institutions, configurations of power and amending
formulas contained therein, fresh light is shed on the terms and
structure of the Constitution and a range of problems associated
with its interpretation and practical operation are addressed.
