Size of cash and near-cash transfer programmes (unemployment benefits, means-tested assistance, universal child benefits). Architecturally distinct from forced-saving schemes — see condition welfare_architecture.
De jure and de facto independence of the central bank from fiscal authority. Per D.1.5 scope, one of the framework's defensible monetary positions.
Financial-sector regulation — banking separation, capital requirements, cross-border activity rules, derivatives oversight.
Product-market regulation, entry barriers, licensing burdens, network-industry regulation, price controls.
Trade policy openness — tariffs, non-tariff barriers, FTAs, industrial protection.
Bob Hawke and Paul Keating's ALP governments running a thirteen-year structural-reform programme: floating the Australian dollar (December 1983), removing capital controls and admitting foreign banks (1984-85), staged tariff phase-down, financial deregulation, the Prices and Incomes Accord with the ACTU coordinating wages and social wage in lieu of industrial action, corporatisation and partial privatisation of Commonwealth Bank, Qantas and Telstra, National Competition Policy reforms beginning with the 1993 Hilmer Review, introduction of dividend imputation, and the Superannuation Guarantee Act 1992 mandating employer contributions to individual accounts (initially 3%, scheduled to phase up). Stated case: pivot the Australian economy from protected, centralised wage-fixing toward open-economy competitiveness, fund retirement through forced individual saving rather than universal pay-as-you-go, and embed central-bank operational autonomy as a credibility anchor.
Per invariant 3, reforms are scored by what they did on each channel-separated axis, not by the party that enacted them. This fingerprint is how the policy-match engine finds historical analogues.
Explicit links are curated by the author. Inferred links are hypotheses in the library that test the same axes this policy moved — the framework's answer to "what does the data say about a policy like this?".
Ranked by axis-fingerprint overlap with this policy. Direction match bolded — those are the closest historical analogues. Shape of the match is what drives policy-outcome comparison, not the country or party label.
