Funded Activity Summary

Debating Democracy: Political Rhetoric in New South Wales 1856–1890. This project will highlight the innovatory nature of democracy in colonial Australia, by establishing the nature of the relationship between political ideas, political language and political practice in one of the first liberal democracies of the modern world. In so doing it will enable a new and detailed picture to emerge of the type of political society that liberalism and democracy created in colonial Australia. As the first comprehensive study of political rhetoric in Australian history, this project will facilitate a new understanding of the distinctiveness of Australian political language and Australian political culture.
