Review Quotes

The removal of Prime Minister Gough Whitlam by the Governor-General in 1975 has generated a great deal of popular and academic commentary. Ian Killey's book presents an original and intriguing analysis of the Dismissal and the relevant constitutional principles. He argues that none of the key figures involved properly understood constitutional conventions, responsible government and the reserved powers. Killey is an expert in constitutional law and unwritten constitutional rules. This book enriches our understanding of the Dismissal, and it provides clarity in current debates about codifying constitutional conventions, whether Australia should become a republic, and other potential changes to the Constitution.
