In the Media
To defend the rule of law we encourage open discussion.
Threats to the rule of law
The exploration of ideas through respectful debate is the lifeblood of democracy and the rule of law. Our resources and commentary promote good governance in Australia by the rule of law and not one side of politics.
We provide impartial and balanced commentary about the state of our democracy and the rule of law in Australia on topics such as defamation, hate-speech laws, integrity commissions and free speech.
