Why is the search for democratic renewal so elusive? This book examines both the political and policy implications of efforts by the centre-left to transform democracy. This is a story not only about democratic change, but also the identity crisis of centre-left political parties. The book offers a fresh critique of the Big Society agenda, and analyses why both left and right are searching for democratic renewal. Drawing on high-profile interviews and examining an in-depth series of comparative cases, the book argues that the centre-left’s search for democratic renewal contains a range of policy and political aims, contradictions and tensions. It will be of interest to students, academics, researchers, interest groups and policy analysts interested in consultation, democratic renewal, labour politics, and Australian and British politics.

Social Democracy is on the back-foot, and increasingly centre-left political parties are struggling to win office. Bringing together a range of leading academics and experts on social democratic politics and policy, Why the left loses offers an international, comparative view of the changing political landscape, examining the degree to which the centre-left project is exhausted and is able to renew its message in a neo-liberal age.Using case studies from the UK, Germany, Spain, France, Australia and New Zealand contributors argue that despite different local and specific contexts, the mainstream centre-left is beset by a range of common challenges. Analysis focuses on institutional and structural factors, the role of key individuals, especially party leaders, and the atrophy of progressive ideas in explaining why the centre-left is currently in retreat. Why the Left Loses is aimed at stimulating wider debate about the fortunes of the centre-left.

This book offers the first critical examination of Australian State and Territory politics in over 20 years. It presents a major updating of the field, with deep analysis of key political, electoral and policy developments in all the States and both Territories over the last decade. The volume addresses a substantial gap in our understanding of politics and policy in Australia, providing systematic scholarly analysis of many new developments, including major policy reforms, and the rise of long-serving and important political leaders, such as Dan Andrews in Victoria and Anna Palaszczcuk in Queensland.In Part One, the authors offer new comparative and thematic analyses of State and Territory politics, including electoral innovations; Commonwealth–State relations; historical context; and gender policy and politics. In Part Two, contributors provide an analytical overview of politics in the past decade in each jurisdiction. The final chapter includes a comparative survey, focusing on electoral trends, policy developments and ideological changes. The book will appeal to scholars of Australian politics across a range of dimensions, from electoral politics to federal dynamics and specific policy concerns, and, more widely, to any reader interested in the politics of Australia. The book is an ideal teaching resource and suited to be integrated as recommended or supplementary reading in a wider range of university undergraduate and postgraduate courses on Australian politics and policy.
