The book explores causes of that disillusionment, and argues that because these are ultimately traceable to defects in the constitution, it is only through constitutional reform that government can be improved.. .This book argues that the current approach to constitutional debate suffers from the flaw of being anti-theoretical, in the sense that it is not grounded in any set of values, and is afflicted by a tendency to consider practical objections to reform before considering the moral case for it. This book argues that instead of accepting the constitution as it is, it is time we began to discuss how it ought to be, taking human dignity as the fundamental value upon which a constitution should be based. It then puts the case for change in a number of areas, including reform of the electoral system, enhanced parliamentary scrutinyof the executive, the inclusion in the constitution of a full bill of rights, the abolition of the federal system, realisation of the rights of Indigenous people, codification of constitutional conventions either in conjunctio | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | Australian Law; Bill of Rights; Civics Education; Constitutionalism; Constitutional Law; Electoral System | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-15-3599-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-981-15-3601-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-981-15-3599-4 | copyright | Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2020 |
