The High Court, the Constitution and Australian Politics is an
in-depth exploration of the relationship between decisions of the
High Court and broader political currents in Australia. It begins
with an investigation of the patterns and effects of constitutional
invalidation and dissent on the High Court over time, and their
correlation with political trends and attitudes. It also examines
the role of constitutional amendment in expressing popular
constitutional understandings in the Australian system. Subsequent
chapters focus on the eras marked by the tenure of the Court's 12
Chief Justices, examining Court's decisions in the context of the
prevailing political conditions and understandings of each.
Together, the chapters canvass a rich variety of accounts of the
relationship between constitutional law and politics in Australia,
and of how this relationship is affected by factors such as the
process of appointment for High Court judges and the Court's
explicit willingness to consider political and community values.
