The years 1997-2001 were eventful ones for the Howard Government. This second volume of the Howard Government series explores these tumultuous years. Politicians, commentators, and scholars--including Michael Wesley, Hugh White, Peter Costello, Phillipa McGuinness, and Tom Frame--take a critical look at the Howard Government's performance, and analyze landmark events. Topics covered include: Wik and native title; a succession of ministerial resignations; the Patrick Corporation waterfront dispute; the Coalition's near defeat at the 1998 election; the response to post-independence violence in East Timor; and the introduction of the GST.
