Australia: the Westminster Model as tradition
chapter
posted on 2023-05-22, 12:10 authored by Rhodes, RAWIn this chapter I examine the Australian experience of the Westminster model, exploring how the country developed its distinctive governmental beliefs and practices. In the first section, I identify two uses of the phrase ‘Westminster model’ – as historical description, as normative guide to constitutional design – arguing that each has manifold defects. In the second section, I look at the Westminster model as an Australian governmental tradition.
