Public Trust in Australia’s Law Enforcement Agencies and Collecting National Security Intelligence Data
Recently, Australia’s understanding of what constitutes national security has changed. As its outlook changes, so has the Intelligence Community that was once responsible for these issues. As a result, these changes have had implications for public trust. In Australia, the concern for national security was outwardly focused—agencies looked at foreign threats.

The political response to rural social and economic sustainability
Learning from past mistakes
Australia’s Rural Reconstruction Commission was established as a key element in its preparations for post-war reconstruction policy making. During the 1940s, the Commission undertook the most comprehensive inquiry ever conducted into Australia’s rural sector, publishing ten reports containing 330 recommendations on rural production and resource management, rural commodity marketing and rural lifestyles (Whitford & Boadle, 2008). In contrast with …

However, its authoritarian structure and tactics fractured the group internally and prom…

Despite the Commission's scope it has attracted little interest from historians. This lack of interest stems from an inaccurate assessment of the impact the reports had on policy making. Assessments have emphasised the few recommendations adopted, but have failed to appreciate the Commission's usefulness to governments co…
