  • Graham Richardson
    Graham Richardson Former ALP minister and political powerbroker Graham ‘Richo’ Richardson has a reputation as one of Australia’s foremost political operators and right-wing powerbrokers, despite having retired from politics in 1994. Graham Richardson joined the Australian Labor Party in 1966 when he was seventeen and soon apprenticed himself to the powerbrokers in the NSW Right, some of the toughest men in the Labor Party. So began a successful and colourful political career that took him from Labor Party branch organiser to General Secretary of the Australian Labor Party (NSW Branch), Senator for New South Wales for the ALP and a senior minister in the Hawke and Keating governments, making him one of the Labor Party’s key figures until his retirement. In his 11 years in federal politics, Graham held the ministerial portfolios of Environment, Arts, Sport, Tourism, Territories, Social Security, Transport, Communications and Health. Richo came to personify political ruthlessness and established the NSW Right of the Labor Party as a formidable political force on the national scene. He became famous for the line “whatever it takes” in reference to Labor doing “whatever it takes” to retain power. This also became the title of his best-selling account of career politics, published in 1994. Known as a king-maker, Graham Richardson had a significant influence on a great many political careers. He was instrumental in replacing Bill Hayden as federal leader with Bob Hawke in 1983 then Hawke with Paul Keating in 1991. After leaving politics in 1994, Richo spent eight years working for various parts of the Packer empire.

    Paul Babie* PUBLISH AND COLLABORATE: AN INVITATION I INTRODUCTION: ‘PUBLISH OR PERISH’ OR ‘COLLABORATE OR CRUMBLE’? n 7 December 2015, the Commonwealth Government announced the $1.1 billion National Innovation and Science Agenda (‘NISA’).1 Aimed at Oembracing innovation, technology and science as critical components to powering the economy so as to provide jobs and higher living standards for all Aus- tralians, the NISA ‘[set] a focus on science, research and innovation as long-term drivers of economic prosperity, jobs and growth’.2 Following this announcement, then Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull suggested that the NISA would mean that ‘publish or perish will be replaced by collaborate or crumble’.3 Christopher Pyne, then Minister for Industry, Innovation and Science, added that the government would ‘abolish publications as the chief reason why you attract research grants’ and flagged an intention to ‘change that into research impact’.4 In a press conference on 18 December 2015, Malcolm Turnbull extemporised at length about the benefits of this new approach: * Adelaide Law School Professor of the Theory and Law of Property, University of Adelaide; Co-Editor in Chief, volumes 29–36 of the Adelaide Law Review. 1 Commonwealth of Australia, Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet, National Innovation and Science Agenda (Report, November 2015) <https://www. industry.gov.au/data-and-publications/national-innovation-and-science-agenda- report>; Minister for the Department of Industry, Innovation and Science, ‘Agenda to Transform the Australian Economy’ (Media Release, 7 December 2015) <https:// www.minister.industry.gov.au/ministers/pyne/media-releases/agenda-transform- australian-economy>. 2 ‘Boosting Innovation and Science’, Department of Industry, Innovation and Science (Cth) (Web Page, 1 March 2019) <https://www.industry.gov.au/strategies-for-the- future/boosting-innovation-and-science>.
