Description

Howard's Fourth Government explores the administrative and leadership style of former Prime Minister John Howard during his fourth and final term in government (2004-2007). Organised into three sections, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of this period.

The first section comprises a collection of essays that delve into key governance issues, such as privatisation, the management of the Howard government's Senate majority, and matters concerning accountability and ethics.

The second section focuses on policy issues that prevailed during the fourth term, including the management of the economy, rural politics (with an emphasis on wheat and drought), industrial relations, indigenous policy, and foreign affairs.

Lastly, the third section offers an overall assessment of Howard's leadership style during this era. It suggests that his faltering political skills on pivotal issues may have ultimately led to his defeat.
