Vale Gough Some good analyses on aspects of the Whitlam era, including the re-engagement with China (Inside Story), legal advice which led to the Dismissal (Australian) and the Its Time campaign (ABC). Myf Warhurst asks where the campaign song went (Guardian), and Tom Uren remembers Whitlam in a Fairfax report. Labors touchiness on Whitlams legacy has generated an unedifying spat over a Facebook post by Lee Rhiannon which appears to claim Whitlams progressive legacy for the Greens (Fairfax). But former Greens adviser Robert Simms argues in the Drum that Whitlams legacy belongs to all progressives. As it looks likely that Whitlam will lend his name to a new Canberran suburb (Australian), analyses of the Whitlam era and its legacy are provided by Jonathan Green (Drum) and at the Piping Shrike blog. The Guardian has a long piece combining the recollections of 16 prominent Australians. - Russell Marks
