This collection of essays and commentaries is the second volume in a series which brings together many of Australia’s leading authorities on Australian constitutional law to pay tribute to Professor Zines’ enduring legacy. A number of the essays address constitutional aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic, while other subjects addressed include: non-statutory executive power; the use of injunctions in public law; and unresolved aspects of the Melbourne Corporation doctrine. Contributors include a number of current and former judges, leading scholars, leading counsel, renowned journalists, and the Solicitor-General of Australia. The book will be an invaluable resource for those who need a sophisticated understanding of recent developments and controversies in Australian constitutional law.
