About this ebook
Arguing that money plays a controversial role in Australian politics, this volume dissects how political parties raise and spend money. Written by a leading expert in the field, this account examines a number of topics, including claims of secret contributions and corruption, criticism of public funding for political parties, and allegations that corporations and trade unions have undue influence over parties for which they provided funds. In addition, this comprehensive record raises crucial questions about whether the current regulation meets democratic standards.
