Pauline Hanson: One Nation and Australian Politics

Abstract

What has been lacking in the debate surrounding Pauline Hanson, despite the at times quite sound efforts of the liberal press, is an exploration of a resonant political phenomenon at a level which seeks to achieve some critical distance between itself and the subject. For this reason the following book is not a series of musings through which to pore looking for libelous statements or scandalous gossip. Rather, it is arranged in thematic chapters analysing specific aspects of the Hanson phenomenon in the context of Australian politics.
