"When assessing the state of democracy, it is often claimed that the existence of a flourishing non-government organisation (NGO) sector is a key indicator. NGOs are regarded as playing a major role in achieving the democratic values of participation, representation, and deliberation and in promoting government responsiveness. NGO advocacy is viewed as an important contribution to making public debate and policy development more inclusive of diverse sections of the community and, in particular, strengthening the voices of the disadvantaged. In Australia, however, there has been recent criticism of NGOs and questioning of the legitimacy of their influence on public policy. This audit report reviews recent developments in this debate and discusses the contributuion of NGOs, which it calls advocacy organisations, to the political system in general and to the policy process in particular." -- from the Executive Summary, p. vii.

"This paper is about disadvantage in Australia, and in particular, about Australians who experience deep and persistent disadvantage. Strong economic growth is a way of increasing living standards and opportunities. Yet despite growing levels of prosperity over the last two decades, and the unemployment rate more than halving, there are concerns within the community that some Australians are being 'left behind'."--Page 3.

The Oxford Handbook of Australian Politics is a comprehensive collection that considers Australia's distinctive politics— both ancient and modern— at all levels and across many themes. It examines the factors that make Australian politics unique and interesting, while firmly placing these in the context of the nation's Indigenous and imported heritage and global engagement. The book presents an account of Australian politics that recognizes and celebrates its inherent diversity by taking a thematic approach in six parts. The first theme addresses Australia's unique inheritances, examining the development of its political culture in relation to the arrival of British colonists and their conflicts with First Nations peoples, as well as the resulting geopolitics. The second theme, improvization, focuses on Australia's political institutions and how they have evolved. Place-making is then considered to assess how geography, distance, Indigenous presence, and migration shape Australian politics. Recurrent dilemmas centres on a range of complex, political problems and their influence on contemporary political practice. Politics, policy, and public administration covers how Australia has been a world leader in some respects, and a laggard in others, when dealing with important policy challenges. The final theme, studying Australian politics, introduces some key areas in the study of Australian politics and identifies the strengths and shortcomings of the discipline. The Oxford Handbook of Australian Politics is an opportunity for others to consider the nation's unique politics from the perspective of leading and emerging scholars, and to gain a strong sense of its imperfections, its enduring challenges, and its strengths.
