Changing Political Careers in Australia (2010 - 2012)$100,000
Description
The project examines changes in the recruitment and careers of top Australian politicians, especially in the context of claims of 'de-professionalisation', as indicated by a proliferation of 'periodic' (vs 'career' and 'lifelong') politicians, frequent lateral entries and early exits. It aims to assess the scope, causes, and some political consequences of these changes, especially political elite selection, circulation, and composition in terms of orientations and political skills.
