Notes

1 The capital analogy is borrowed from Mark Bennister, Paul 't Hart and Benjamin Worthy (eds), The Leadership Capital Index: A new perspective on political leadership, Oxford University Press, Oxford, 2017.

2 Influential long-term observers have encouraged this perception: see, for instance, Paul Kelly, ‘The Australian Crisis’ in Kelly, Triumph and Demise: The broken promise of a Labor generation, MUP, Melbourne, 2014, pp. 497–510; for devastating figures on public disillusion with politics and politicians, see Sarah Cameron and Ian McAllister, Trends in Australian Political Opinion: Results from the Australian election study, 1987–2016, School of Political and International Relations, Australian National University, Canberra, 2016.

6 This trend is epitomised in the unreservedly technocratic but, nevertheless, in government circles (within and beyond Australia) much-regarded account of Tony Blair’s erstwhile micromanager in chief, Sir Michael Barber, How to Run a Government, Penguin, London, 2015.
