The Federation - what makes it work and what should we be thinking about for the future - Oxford : Blackwell Publishers Limited, December 2001
The Australian Federation is unique. Like all federation there is a division of powers between the various levels of government. However, unlike almost all other federations, the Australian Federation requieres the cooperation of the states and the Commonwealth in order to achieve their institutional functions. This federal system can porperly be described as "cooperative federalism." An understanding of the role of the states within this federal system suggests an urgent need for major constitutionl reform at the state level
