Contradictions in Australia's 'Miracle Economy' Download

Description:

The re-election of the Coalition Government in October 2004 was widely
attributed to its successful management of the economy, in particular, the
maintenance of low interest rates. The strong swing to the Coalition in
the outer metropolitan seats where large mortgages are common is
regarded as confirmation of this argument. It was also widely argued in
the media and by the Government’s supporters that the 2004 election
crystallised an alleged conservative cultural shift on the part of
‘mainstream Australia’. According to right-wing commentators, the
result of the 2004 election is an indication of the gradual emergence of a
new aspirational and entrepreneurial society.
