  • A Genealogical Study of 'The Child' As the Subject of Pre-Compulsory Education in Western Australia by Zsuzsa Millei This Th
    A genealogical study of ‘the child’ as the subject of pre-compulsory education in Western Australia by Zsuzsa Millei This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University Year of Submission: 2007 DECLARATION I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. ………….……………… Zsuzsa Millei ii ABSTRACT The study produces a genealogy of ‘the child’ as the shifting subject constituted by the confluence of discourses that are utilized by, and surround, Western Australian pre- compulsory education. The analysis is approached as a genealogy of governmentality building on the work of Foucault and Rose, which enables the consideration of the research question that guides this study: How has ‘the child’ come to be constituted as a subject of regimes of practices of pre-compulsory education in Western Australia? This study does not explore how the historical discourses changed in relation to ‘the child’ as a universal subject of early education, but it examines the multiple ways ‘the child’ was constituted by these discourses as the subject at which government is to be aimed, and whose characteristics government must harness and instrumentalize. Besides addressing the research question, the study also develops a set of intertwining arguments. In these the author contends that ‘the child’ is invented through historically contingent ideas about the individual and that the way in which ‘the child’ is constituted in pre-compulsory education shifts in concert with the changing problematizations about the government of the population and individuals.

  • Western Australian Electoral Reform: Legislative Council 2021
    Western Australian Electoral Reform: Legislative Council 2021 Personal Submission to the Ministerial Expert Committee About this Submission This submission seeks to address the terms of reference as the Ministerial Expert Committee (“the Committee”) and the further four questions posed by the Committee in a supplementary discussion paper. All views expressed in this document are my own. Summary The current model of the Legislative Council does provide electoral equality – which I have defined as the right to a vote for a representative in Parliament, based on a geographical area, who is elected by a fair and robust voting system. The current model of six seats with six members each should continue as this model considers equity and equality when providing representation for constituents. However, improvements could be made to better reflect demographics across the State and public funding could be the leverage to achieve this. Group ticket voting should be abolished and the Committee should consider whether utilising a Robson Rotation method would ensure better engagement from Members of Parliament with their constituency. Background and Context Western Australia is a jurisdiction of approximately 2.5 million square kilometres. Originally a colony of the British Empire, it adopted a bicameral and Westminster style of Parliament when it became a State. The two houses of Parliament are referred to as the Legislative Assembly (LA), where Government is formed over 59 seats, and the Legislative Council or House of Review which consists of 36 seats over 6 regions. Western Australia’s parliament is well renowned for being democratically sound, with structural reforms to the parliament every 20 years or so.
