The pivot of government? Understanding the Australian prime minister: The office and its holders

这项研究提供了迄今为止澳大利亚总理职位最全面的研究，并将大大增加我们对办公室行为的理解。理想情况下，它将促进对领导力实践的更明智的理解，直接为我们政治制度的这一关键方面的公共教育提供信息（通过堪培拉的总理中心/拟议的民主博物馆），导致公民更好地欣赏这一角色，可能更好地领导实践，如果我们的研究表明这是必要的，为考虑是否需要进行制度改革提供证据基础。

This study offers the most comprehensive study of Australia's prime ministership to date and will greatly augment our understanding of the conduct of the office over time. Ideally, it will promote a more informed understanding of the exercise of leadership, feeding directly into public education about this key aspect of our political system (through the Prime Ministers' Centre/proposed Museum of Democracy in Canberra), leading to better citizen appreciation of the role, possibly to better leadership practices and, if our research shows it to be necessary, providing an evidence base for consideration as to whether there is a need for institutional reform.
