Gli Italiani nel New South Wales: scelte politiche a Griffith 1947-1984 Jim Hagan University of Wollongong La città di Griffith, nello Stato del New South Wales (Australia), si trova nel centro del Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area (MIA), distante circa 500 km da Sydney. Alla fine degli anni sessanta c’erano a Griffith più residenti nati in Italia, pro capite di popolazione, che in qualsiasi altro luogo dello Stato. Come si spiega questa concentrazione? E quali circostanze, riguardo al loro insediamento, hanno influenzato il loro adattamento al nuovo paese e le loro scelte politiche? La prassi con la quale fu stabilito il MIA può fornire, in parte, una possibile risposta a tale domanda. Dopo un lungo periodo di disastrosa siccità all’inizio del ventesimo secolo, il governo cominciò a mettere in atto un grande progetto di irrigazione e lottizzazione lungo il fiume Murrumbidgee, e nel 1913 i primi ‘blocks’ (appezzamenti) erano pronti.

  • Conference Trs 23 7 99
    SEVENTH AUSTRALASIAN AND PACIFIC CONFERENCE ON DELEGATED LEGISLATION AND FOURTH AUSTRALASIAN PACIFIC CONFERENCE ON THE SCRUTINY OF BILLS ______ At Sydney on Friday 23 July 1999 ______ The conference convened at 9.30 a.m. ______ 145 REPORTS FROM PARTICIPATING PARLIAMENTARY COMMITTEES Commonwealth Senate SENATOR COONEY: The report that I am about to read was prepared by James Warmenhoven, our outstanding secretary. I take this opportunity to thank and acknowledge the incredible amount of work that is done by what is called our support staff, which is a most inadequate way of describing those who have done all the work for this conference. Senator Helen Cooney would agree that the sort of work done by the staff or public servantsCwhatever one likes to call themCis incredible, including the Victorian staff. I had intended to name a few names; instead I make a general acknowledgment of the people who have done the work. Of course, as parliamentarians we bring a keenness of mind to the task but, fundamentally, this report is James Warmenhoven's work. A number of things have happened since the Adelaide conference, which was held two years ago. First, there was a Federal election, and I well remember that. Second, the Thirty- ninth Parliament commenced on 10 November. As a result, the standing committee farewelled a number of members and welcomed some new ones. In October 1997, Professor Douglas Whalan passed away, and I understand that Harold Hird will say something about that. I acknowledge Jim Davis and Peter Crawford who was the secretary before James Warmenhoven. Peter has retired, and I acknowledge all the great work he did.

Italians in rural New South Wales and political choice: Griffith 1947-1984 Jim Hagan University of Wollongong Griffith is a town in the State of New South Wales, Australia, the centre of the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area (MIA), about 500 kilometres from Sydney. By the end of the 1960s, it had more people of Italian birth per head of population than any other town or city in the State. Why did this concentration occur? How did the circumstances of their settlement affect the Italians’ accommodation to their new country, their social attitudes and their political allegiances? The way in which the MIA was established provides part of an answer to all these questions. After a disastrous drought at the beginning of the twentieth century, the New South Wales Government began planning a massive public irrigation scheme on the Murrumbidgee River, and by 1913 it had released the first blocks for settlement.
