    The organisation of the Australian Labor Party 1916-1941
    Rawson, D. W. ( 1954)
    This study is an attempt to describe the organisational development of the Australian Labor Party between 1916 and 1941, a transitional period for the party, lying between its two great periods of parliamentary success, 1910-16 and 1941-49. Few Labor achievements marked the intervening twenty five years. Except in Queensland, Labor governments were usually of short duration, and frequently ended in disruption and disaster. Yet it was not an era of unqualified decline, for at its conclusion the party was in a position to begin its longest and perhaps its most fruitful period of political supremacy.
