Nationhood, Executive Power and the Australian Constitution

Nationhood, Executive Power and the Australian Constitution

Peta Stephenson

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2022
sidottu
The first comprehensive study of the nature and scope of the nationhood power, this book brings a fresh perspective to the scholarship on the powers of the executive branch in Australia.The question of when the Federal Executive Government can act without the authorisation of the Parliament is contested and highly topical in Australia. In recent judicial decisions, Australian courts have suggested that statutory authorisation may not be required where the Federal Executive Government is exercising the nationhood power; that is, the implied executive power derived from the character and status of the Commonwealth as the national government.The Federal Executive Government has relied on this power to implement controversial spending programs, respond to national emergencies and exclude non-citizens from Australia. Together, the chapters in this book analyse and evaluate judicial observations about the operation of the nationhood power in these different contexts and the limits which apply to it.While the focus of this book is on the nationhood power, it also addresses broader issues concerning the relationship between the legislative and executive branches in parliamentary systems of government. This book makes an important contribution to the literature on executive power and will appeal to constitutional lawyers, scholars and practitioners and those who are involved in the administration of government.

Dare you step onto the battle ground between trust and lust? Part comic confession, part one-woman Lysistrata, Lily asks impossible questions: Is chastity the only option for women of 'a certain age' Could a sex strike end war? Is intimacy dangerous? Do Hags have more fun?Funny, provoking and always accessible, these poems takes you on a journey where the goddess Diana is resurrected as an older woman, where Hindu Goddesses Durga and Kali battle a Buffalo-demon, whizzing past the Rakes of the 18th Century and into the dark and dirty corners of the 21st. 'A potted history of Hinduism my ma would approve of. Playful asking of questions through comedy.' - Anil Kumar, Actor. 'Enchanting, funny and poignant. Lily deals skilfully with women's issues which are not spoken about enough. Edgy, charismatic, witty and thought provoking.' - Linda Marlowe. Audiences for the stage show version said: 'intelligent, provocative and very funny', 'a sharp eye and a dangerously wicked emotional truth', 'creative, original, and raunchy (in a very chaste way ).' Press reviews for Lily's previous work: 'Compelling...beautifully written' - Edinburgh Evening News. 'Incisive and inventive wit' - The Scotsman. 'Provokes and intrigues' - Daily Post, Liverpool.

Historical & Contemporary Views of Gender: ORIGINS, DEVELOPMENT & FUTURE Volume 4
This book is about gender past, present and future in four volumes. Volume 1, after giving some necessary background information about gender and how it differs from sex, considers the possible origins of gender in pre-historic communities. It then goes on to track the development of gender historically. Volume 2 is a discussion of contemporary views of gender, as revealed in institutional practices, activist ideologies, research surveys, including the author's, and in academic theories of gender. Volume 3 reviews the activities and ideologies of those groups and institutions which loosen the bonds of gender constraining thoughts, feelings and behaviour. The various categories of individuals which buck prevailing conceptions of gender, and mainstream reactions to them, are considered. In Volume 4, social forces for gender stasis and change, ideological, institutional and interpersonal are considered. How a future society without gender might result, and what it would be like, is the subject of the final part of the book
