Later, I wondered whether the survey might show the ideological aspect of the split by showing a definite pattern of "left" and "right" attitudes. After a preliminary examination of the results of the survey and noting that only forty-five of my sixty-nine respondents had sent in replies I put the material away, to disinter it some six years later. As I was very busy in 1957 collecting information about the split and preparing my book Catholic Action and Politics3 I ----- - - -------------------------------- 1 Premier Gait was expelled by the Central Executive on 24 Apri11957, and the Labor Party divided into those that followed him and those who remained loyal to the Central Executive. 2 "The Pressure Groups, Parties and Politics of the Australian Labor Movement" (Master of Arts thesis, University of Queensland, 1954). 3 Melbourne: Georgian House, 1959. 45 46 TOM TRUMAN had no time to give it my close attention then. In any case, publication at the time would have interfered with the collection of information about the split because it Was very likely that the factions would use the results as ammunition in the party battles. Newspaper reporters had got wind of my project and were trying to discover the results. All things considered it seemed best to lay the material aside for a while. Now that I have made a close examination of the results I think they are interest­ In&q.s indicating that there exist four distinct ideological groupings in the answers of niY respondents, and though the numbers involved are small there is reason to believe that these ideological groupings may exist in the Australian Labor Party at large. If this is tme then it would deny the opinion of some political scientists that there are no ideological patterns of attitudes in the Australian Labor Party but members of the A.L.P. are "aU over the place" in their views. It also tends to refine the simple distinc­ tion into "left" and "right" that is the commonplace of political commentaries and may also do something to clear up the confusion that exists over such questions as: "Is the Australian Labor Party a socialist party?" "How far is the A.L.P. sympathetic to communism?" "Is the A.L.P. still deeply committed to the White Australia policy?" and so on. I have shown the results to colleagues in the Government Department of the University of Queensland and discussed their implications with them. With their encouragement I have decided to publish them. They have agreed with me that though the numbers in my survey are small, the significant thing is the clear emergence of four distinct ideological groupings, that is to say, there is a fairly well-defined pattern ofviews which can be divided into four parts that I have labelled Extreme Left, Mod­ erate Left, Moderate Right, and Extreme Right. The improbability that the occurrence of this pattern is peculiar to the answers ofthe respondents to my 1957 survey leads to the assumption that the pattern probably exists today (some of my respondents, I am fairly sure from their published statements, still have much the same attitudes if about rather different events, and even if some of them might conceivably have changed their ideological positions those positions are represented in the party by others today), and the pattern probably, and more importantly, exists in the party at large. At the end of this paper I adduce some evidence for believing that this conclusion may be right. Only a tme random sampling of Labor Party activists throughout Australia could establish my assmnptions as being proven. But such a sample could only be obtail1ed by the official endorsement of the Federal Executive of the A.L.P., an endorsement that would not be given except to an official survey, and this is a survey that is most unlikely to be made; even if it were made the results of it would probably not be available to anyone outside the top group of the party's hierarchy. Even my small survey presented many difficulties which took a great deal of time and thought, as well as the co-operation of quite a few friends and well-disposed people, to surmount. Having regard to the absence of any other survey, the unsatisfactory features of this one should, my colleagues think, not prevent its publication. In order to allow the reader to judge the worth of the survey and the significance, if any, ofits results there follow some details about the questionnaire, the sample, and the correlating of the answers to produce the four ideological groups. I drew up a questionnaire with the intention of eliciting the more permanent and more typical attitudes. In listing the topics I was guided by a study of conference and executive reports and party platform in all states, by an examination of the party press in several states over a period of about ten years off and on, by the reading of articles and books on the history of the party and its more or less contemporary position, and by a personal knowledge of Labor men'S views gained in more than twenty years' association with members of the party in South Australia, Victoria, and Queensland. Even then I cannot be sure of course that my judgment is not at fault and there may well be important items that have been left out ofthe questionnaire. Another point ofcriticism may well be the form ofthe questions and the variety of the responses provided. IDEOLOGICAL GROUPS IN THE AUSTRALIAN LABOR PARTY 47 The questionnaire The questionnaire, as the reader may see from reading the form in which the results are published, is divided into a number of topics such as "Capitalism", "Foreign Policy", "Immigration and Race", "Democracy", and so on. Under each topic is listed a number of responses, for example, under "Classes and Class War" there are the following possible answers: 1. There are no classes in Australia. 2. The working class is exploited by the capitalists. 3. The workers and capitalists are engaged in a continual class war. 4. The workers have won the class struggle. 5. There are classes in Australia but there is no great class feeling or class war. 6. The workers cannot win the class war until socialism is introduced. The respondents were asked to put a tick alongside the answer/answers they considered most appropriate. A space was provided under each topic for an answer not catered for in the supplied responses. The sample I polled twelve federal Labor members of parliament with whom 1 had some acquaintance. They seemed to include a range of ideological opinion. The split in the Federal Parliamentary Labor Party had taken place in 1955, some eighteen months before, and I included one member of the Democratic Labor Party who had been a leading personality in the old Catholic Social Movement-Industrial Group faction. Five of the twelve did not complete the survey. Two of these, whom I judged to be sympathetic to the Industrial Groupers, were indignant at my presumption in asking them to answer my questionnaire, and their failure to respond could be attributed to the difficulties of their position as a minority likely to be persecuted or even ex­ pelled. I mention this incident to illustrate the difficulties inherent in the survey. The seven federal Labor parliamentarians who replied were all from states other than Queensland. All the rest of the forty-five respondents were from Queensland. r polled twelve members of the Queensland state parliament, again trying to get a range of ideological opinion. Only five replied. I polled two electorate branches of the A.L.P. One was the Jubilee branch which generally had the reputation of being an anti-Grouper branch.

    John Burton: undermined by dishonest history: Honest History lecture series, Manning Clark House, Canberra, Monday, 18 August 2014 Pamela Burton Dr John Burton headed the Department of External Affairs in 1947 at age 32, his minister being Herbert Vere Evatt (‘the Doc’). He and Evatt shared a joint vision for an Australian foreign policy independent of Britain and the United States. In his short public service career Burton had significant influence over Australia’s foreign policy. Ahead of his times, he held the view that Australia’s security in the Asia-Pacific region depended upon better understanding of and engagement with its neighbours. To achieve this, he advocated ‘open diplomacy’. Burton’s work and influence has been the subject of numerous scholarly works. Curiously, alongside the honest historians, there has been a concerted effort by some dishonest ideologues writing to discredit Burton and what he stood for. Sixty years on, malicious writers continue to skew the historic record by asserting that Burton betrayed his country. Why? And how can the record be corrected? I am a non-fiction writer. I would love to write fiction, but I’ve been told that it’s not my forte, because I can’t help letting truth get in the way of a good story. There are non-fiction writers, however, who won’t let the truth spoil a story. Take the example of a recent article in the magazine Quadrant, ‘The curious case of Dr John Burton’.1 A fictitious spy story if ever there was one, though it purported to be an historical account.

  • Full Thesis Draft No Pics
    A whole new world: Global revolution and Australian social movements in the long Sixties Jon Piccini BA Honours (1st Class) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2013 School of History, Philosophy, Religion & Classics Abstract This thesis explores Australian social movements during the long Sixties through a transnational prism, identifying how the flow of people and ideas across borders was central to the growth and development of diverse campaigns for political change. By making use of a variety of sources—from archives and government reports to newspapers, interviews and memoirs—it identifies a broadening of the radical imagination within movements seeking rights for Indigenous Australians, the lifting of censorship, women’s liberation, the ending of the war in Vietnam and many others. It locates early global influences, such as the Chinese Revolution and increasing consciousness of anti-racist struggles in South Africa and the American South, and the ways in which ideas from these and other overseas sources became central to the practice of Australian social movements. This was a process aided by activists’ travel. Accordingly, this study analyses the diverse motives and experiences of Australian activists who visited revolutionary hotspots from China and Vietnam to Czechoslovakia, Algeria, France and the United States: to protest, to experience or to bring back lessons. While these overseas exploits, breathlessly recounted in articles, interviews and books, were transformative for some, they also exposed the limits of what a transnational politics could achieve in a local setting. Australia also became a destination for the period’s radical activists, provoking equally divisive responses.

  • Intimate Strangers
    4 The Shift The sexual and gender struggles in Coonardoo and Haxby's Circus suggest the direction Prichards writing was about to take. In her next novel, Intimate Strangers, many of the elements which have been discussed so far in this thesis are evident: organicism, tragedy, moralist socialism, rationalist Marxism, problematic sexual relations, marriage and an ambiguous rape. All of these elements operate in an overdetermined dialectical process, as they do in her earlier novels. In Intimate Strangers, however, new elements are introduced, comprising a new subset of overdeterminants that contradicts (dialectically) these established elements and, in so doing, alters them. These conjunctures have compounded over the course of Prichards novel canon, to the point where Litimate Strangers comes closest of all to a state of revolutionary rupture. In other words, this is potentially Prichards most politically potent and aesthetically powerful novel. But this close proximity to a state of revolutionary rupture cannot be maintained. As we have seen, the concluding chapters of Prichards novels are significant. The conclusion of Intimate Strangers provides a revelation. But instead of taking the narrative even closer to a state of revolutionary rupture, the conclusion enacts a shift back along the continuum towards historical inhibition. 4 -4- The critical heritage of Intimate Strangers is burdened with biographical and historical speculation. Almost the entire body of critical 143 discussion of the novel is dedicated to arguments about its autobiographical content and anatomy of the events surrounding its composition. Prichards son, Ric Throssell, has consistently defended the novel against attacks from what he calls the "literary detectives." He asserts that Prichard had completed a draft of the novel, and that the manuscript was stored in her workroom at the Greenmount house, before she left on her voyage to London and the USSR in 1933.

  • 'To Fight Against the Horrible Evil of Communism': Catholics, Community and the Movement in Rockhampton, 1943-1957 Barbara Webst
    'To fight against the horrible evil of Communism': Catholics, Community and the Movement in Rockhampton, 1943-1957 Barbara Webster* During the 1940s and 1950s, Rockhampton had the reputation of being one of the 1 foremost centres of organised anti-communist activity undertaken predominantly by the Catholic Church and its clandestine industrial organisation, the Movement. Historians have not explained this particular phenomenon nor have they undertaken much research into the post-World War II anti-communist hysteria in regional Australia in general. This article aims to redress this omission in Australian labour historiography by exploring the origin, organisation and operation of the Movement in Rockhampton. It locates the roots of Rockhampton's reputation as a 'hotbed' of Movement activity in the particular socio-economic, political, demographic and cultural characteristics of the city in general and of the Catholic community in particular. It demonstrates the role of 'community', both subjectively and structurally, in mobilising Catholics against communism and the significance of 'place' in the production of community identity and maintenance of authority. On 3 October 1956, the front page of the Morning Bulletin informed the citizens of the Central Queensland city of Rockhampton: Police were summoned to the Rockhampton Trades Hall last night when, marching in a body down the centre of the hall, left wing industrial union delegates took over control of a Trades and Labour Council meeting to climax the most amazing scenes in the council's history.1 In the six months following that dramatic night in Trades Hall, the local union movement found itself in the absurd position of possessing two peak industrial bodies – the 'Old' Rockhampton Trades and Labour Council (RTLC) which had originally formed in 1938 and the 'New' RTLC.
