Session 2: The Parties - Between '69 and '72 | Breaking Ground 2022 | Whitlam Institute

On October 21, the Whitlam Institute held a Symposium titled ‘Breaking Ground: Lessons in Preparing for and Winning Government’, the first of a series that will look back upon and examine this period. We were thrilled to use this opportunity to launch two 50th Anniversary Legacy Papers that draw together the strands of the sixties and early seventies to highlight how Gough Whitlam engaged with and embodied a rapidly changing Australia in order to end Labor’s decades long period in Opposition. In her paper, ‘“Relevant and electable”: Gough Whitlam and the Remaking of the Australian Labor Party’, Emeritus Professor Jenny Hocking dives into how Whitlam took advantage of the energy of the time and used it to successfully revive the Labor Party.
