Graham Maddox is Professor of Politics and Dean of the Faculty of Arts at the University of New England, Australia. He is the author of Australian Democracy in Theory and Practice (1985) and The Hawke Government and Labor Tradition (1989) as well as many articles and chapters on constitutionalism, republicanism and democracy.
