The invisible state : the formation of the Australian state

State theory suggests that this authority is a right to speak on certain matters in certain ways and to have the audience agree with those statements. This 1991 book shows how in Australia the judiciary became the most powerful arm of government because it has the last say on all issues and in its own language.
