Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the political development of Victoria, Australia from 1851 to 1856 and the lead-up to the introduction of responsible government in 1855. The book begins by establishing the context of the time by discussing the introduction of representative government to New South Wales in 1842 and the struggle for the creation of a separate colony of Victoria that culminated in its establishment in 1851. The author analyzes the debates and conflicts of the period as the appointed officials, elected representatives, and legislative council sought to determine their respective powers and jurisdictions. Particular attention is paid to the influence that the discovery of gold and the resultant wealth had on the political development of both Victoria and Australia as a whole. By 1855, the concept of responsible government, where the executive branch of government is accountable to the elected representatives of the people, had taken hold. The book provides a detailed account of the events that led to the implementation of this significant reform, which marked a major step in the constitutional development of Victoria. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
