Synopsis
Since the 1980s, Australia has undergone a quiet revolution in its national policy for the manufacturing industry. Protectionism, the basis of policy for over a century and a strong tenet of Australian political culture, has been abolished and alternative policies phased in. This book is an historical and theoretical account of this transition from protectionism. It gives a comprehensive analysis of the corrective policies of the Hawke government and presents case studies of three troubled manufacturing sectors: steel; textiles, clothing and footwear; and the motor industry.

Review
"Specialists will be delighted by the detailed discussions of policy formation in the case studies. Non-specialists stand to learn much from the beginning and middle. Given that liberalization went farther in Australia (and even more so in New Zealand) than in many European economies, they might learn something about why policy change did or did not take place 'up over.'" Herman Schwartz, University of Virginia
