 The Diarchy
To see the diarchy as being about balancing power — or as some perceived it in the 1970s and 1980s as a power struggle between the civilian and military sides of the house — fundamentally misses the point in my view.
The diarchy had its true genesis in the "guiding principles" laid down in December 1972 by Minister for Defence Lance Barnard when he directed Sir Arthur Tange, the then Secretary of the Department of Defence, to report on reorganising the Defence Group of Departments.
The Committee was critical of the diarchy, seeing the separation of military and civilian staffs as causing confrontation and bargaining in policy processes rather than cooperation and collaboration.

 Policy Discussion Paper - Australia Defence Association
This threat to tradition was soon overcome, however, by the establishment of a new senior committee structure that made for a decision-making collective that sharply diluted the concept of responsibility and accountability.
At the core of the problem is the concept of the diarchy of military and civilian management and advice to the government.
Under the latest manifestation of the diarchy, the Chief of the Defence Force is the government's principal military adviser and the Secretary of the Department is its principal civilian adviser.

 FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Much of the malaise or immobility of the government, except perhaps in finance administration, is seen to be the bane of diarchy in an oversized Cabinet.
This perceived diarchy is often euphemised as the cause and consequence of a generational divide among the BNP Cabinet members and in the formal and informal party hierarchy.
With all kinds of things happening all at once, drastic or silly, to the discomfiture of the administration and the detriment of orderly governance, a cathartic exercise is urgently on the Prime Minister's hand.

 Chief of the Defence Force :: The Diarchy
The diarchy reflects the individual responsibilities and accountabilities of the Chief of the Defence Force and the Secretary, and also their joint responsibilities and accountabilities, in ensuring that the Defence organisation delivers to the Australian Government outcomes that go to meeting the goal of defending Australia and its national interests.
The manner in which the diarchy operates is further set out in directions given to the Chief of the Defence Force and Secretary by the Minister for Defence.
Consequently, the joint ministerial directives issued from time to time are critical in identifying how the diarchy is to operate in practice.

It is true that robbery as a social phenomenon, be it the pen type or the armed type, has been with us for a while, so much so that the society never asks its members how they came about their stupendous wealth even without ever been seen working for it.
The only difference is that this new diarchy is made up of politicians who govern mainly during the day and armed robbers who govern mainly during the night.
I am unable to separate it from such phenomena like the perpetual closure of our schools, the collapse of social infrastructures, a free falling economy, petty crimes, official arrogance, corruption in high places, grass materialism, etc., etc., none of which is being seriously addressed even now.
