Pre~eding page blank r v r FOREWORD The seminar which generated the papers contained in this vol~~e was the second of its type conducted by the Institute. The first, he J.d in February 1979, was ~argely attended by l'ecipients of grants from the Criminology Resl:::arch Council, the Institute's own research staff and a small number of researchers employed by other organisa- tions, The same groups were represented at the 1981 seminar but research workers from police and corrections departments were also included. This expansion meant that over 40 papers were presented during the four­ day period and therefore only brief outlines of current or recently completed research could be permitted. The bulk of this volume comprises summaries of papers that were prepared by the researchers who participated. More details of the research projects outlined here may be obtained by contacting individual researchers directly. The aims of the seminar were to provide an opportunity for persons engaged in criminological research to discuss their work with fellow researchers and to encourage comment and criticism with a view to improving the quality of such research in Australia. The hope was also expressed that the seminar might reveal the strengths and weaknesses of Australian criminological research and perhaps suggest new directions for the future. It is obviously difficult to assess the extent to which these aims were achieved but informal comments from participants as well as the results of the post-sem~nar questionnaire survey clearly indicate that the majority found the seminar to be both valuable and interesting. It has also been suggested by a number of participants that in the two years since the previous research seminar there has been a significant improvement in the quality of the research being undertaken. One feature of the 1981 seminar that distinguished it from the earlier one and from nearly all other Institute activities was the participation of forensic scientists. The Criminology Research Council has made a small number of grants to facilitate research in the field of forensic science and the contributions that these researchers made to the seminar provided a new dimension to the thinking of Illany criminolog­ ists. Their research style contrasts sharply with that adopted by social scientists and lawyers but it is clear that there is much to be gained on both sides from the interchange of ideas between all disciplines concerned with the prevention of crime and its consequences. The organisation of this seminar and the preparation of this publication would not have been possible without the assistance and cooperation of a number of people. Training Division staff of tho Institute helped with a range of organisational and administrative details, but a great deal of the preparation and all of the typing of this report was done by my secretary, Mrs Marjorie Johnson, whose diligence and attention to detail made this project possible. David Biles March 1981 --.... ·,·, r, r CRIMINOLOGICAL RESEARCH IN PERSPECTIVE W. CLIFFORD Criminological research was once the relatively straightforward study of a more or less definable phenomenon. There was, for earlier generations of scholars, a distinct social problem to be analysed, explained and controlled. Durkheim, Quetelet, Lombroso, Shaw and Mackay, Alexander and Healy, the Gluecks, were all trail blazers in a new eclectic jungle of genetic, psychological, and sociological concepts. They were the empiricists - true to the traditions of Auguste Comte, concentrating not on unanswerable metaphysical questions of 'why' but on the practical issues of 'how I • At least so they thought, but we now know to what extent there were assumptions and unsubstantiated

  • Fighting Against the French: Australians in the Allied Invasion of Lebanon and Syria, 1941
    Fighting against the French: Australians in the Allied invasion of Lebanon and Syria, 1941 Daniel Seaton Introduction In the nearly three quarters of a century since the end of the Second World War, popular memory of Australia’s involvement in the conflict has been shaped around several key cornerstones of engagement. Tobruk, Kokoda, and Singapore, for example, are easily understandable stories of heroism and sacrifice, which have been etched into Australian national consciousness as symbols of the nation’s contribution to the war. These symbols provide unambiguous displays of the courage and determination shown by Australian service personnel, fought against easily recognisable enemies: the Germans and Japanese. Where areas of conflict did not fit into these clear-cut criteria, they often became subsumed by the popular narrative of the war. An example of this is the Lebanon-Syria campaign of June–July 1941, fought against pro-Axis Vichy French forces, which has remained a far less well-known and understood area of Australian engagement to this day.1 Though the campaign was a relatively minor event in the grand scheme of the war, it held great significance for the men, mostly of the recently-formed 7th Australian Division, who fought there. In his 1989 memoir, Corporal Anthony MacInante, a veteran of the campaign, wrote that “very little credit, if any, has been given to the Commanding Officers and troops who secured this vital northern flank of Lebanon- Syria … In Australia we hardly get a mention”.2 MacInante’s complaints may have been

The writ was provoked by the decision of Ithe Queensland police, with the agreed and required authority of the State Archivist, to destroy the files that had been maintained by the state’s Police Special Branch. The writ faded away in circumstances that are lost to me. But the incident holds a retrospective fascination. It points to the strangely ambivalent status of the Special Branch in the history of the 1950s to the 1980s, during which the threats of a political police in Australia were more imagined than realised. As historians, we thought it important that this controversial part of the state’s history should be preserved. Over the years, some of us had found the records of earlier intelligence agencies and political policing invaluable – to illuminate the conflicted histories of Australia in wartime, for example.

RayWhitrod was born in Adelaide in 1915. He matriculated fromhigh school dur ing the Depression. While cycling around South Australian Riverlands in a vain attempt to find work as a fruit-picker he learnt of a scheme to recruit teenagers as police cadets. Thus began a police career- interrupted by war service and a stint with ASIO- that led to his appointments as the Conunissioner of the Commonwealth, Papua New Guinea, and, subsequently, the Commissioner of Queensland Police Force. After seven hard years trying to eliminate mal­ practice in the Queensland force, Ray Whitrod was forcibly presented by the Bjelke-Petersen government with a deputy conunissioner, whom he knew to be deeply corrupt. Whitrod resigned in protest in 1976� Ray Whitrod was active in the establishment of the South Australian Victims of Crime Service. He has had a lifelong involvement with Scouting and has been awarded many hon­ ours, including appointment as Companion of the Order of Australia and a doctorate from the Australian National Uni­ versity.

The Fitzgerald Report identified the need for reform of the structure, procedures and efficiency in public administration in Queensland. What was most striking in the Queensland reform process was that a new model for combatting corruption had been developed. Rather than rely upon a single law and a single institution, existing institutions were strengthened and new institutions were introduced to create a set of mutually supporting and mutually checking institutions, agencies and laws that jointly sought to improve governmental standards and combat corruption. Some of the reforms were either unique to Queensland or very rare. One of the strengths of this approach was that it avoided creating a single over-arching institution to fight corruption. There are many powerful opponents of reform. Influential institutions and individuals resist any interference with their privileges.
