ABC Conversations: Kim and the Constitution, with Richard Fidler (22 August 2023)

Kim Rubenstein is a constitutional expert and a professor of law at the University of Canberra. 

Later this year, we'll be voting on a proposed change to the Australian constitution.

But many Australians are unaware of its existence; how it works and what it does even though it underpins so much of our way of life.

Kim explains how the constitution came to be and more about the underlying principles and assumptions of the people who framed it more than a century ago.
