Media Law Cases Materials and Commentary examines the basic principles of the substantive areas of law affecting the practice of contemporary media organisations including defamation, invasion of privacy and freedom of information.Using carefully selected excerpts from recent cases and legislation and insightful author commentary, the book introduces important media concepts and helps readers put these into both legal and media contexts. Updated case studies and questions throughout the chapters draw out concepts in the extracted source materials and encourage deeper discussion.

Government Accountability Sources and Materials: Australian Administrative Law is designed to accompany the third edition of the textbook Government Accountability: Australian Administrative Law. Following the accessible structure of Government Accountability, this book guides students through the real-world operation of administrative law and demonstrates how multiple doctrines and mechanisms can interact in a single situation. Extracts from primary materials - including cases and legislation - provide a clear account of the facts, issues and statutory provisions considered by the courts, and are accompanied by relevant commentary. This edition has been thoroughly updated to include recent significant cases such as Minister for Immigration, Citizenship, Migrant Services and Multicultural Affairs v Viane (2021), Hocking v Director-General of the National Archives of Australia (2020) and MZAPC v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection (2021). Written by a team of experts, Government Accountability Sources and Materials: Australian Administrative Law is a fundamental and student-friendly introduction to administrative law in practice.
