  • Cape Bedford (Hopevale) Mission and the ‘Paradox’ of Aboriginal Labour in the Second World War
    Invisible Labourers: Cape Bedford (Hopevale) Mission and the ‘Paradox’ of Aboriginal Labour in the Second World War. Kirstie Louise Close B.A. (Hons) Master of Arts School of Historical Studies University of Melbourne May 2009 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts by Coursework and Shorter Thesis 1 Abstract This thesis examines the role of labour in the history of the Cape Bedford Aboriginal community, from its establishment in 1886 to 1950. It focuses on period around the Second World War when the community was evacuated south to the government reserve at Woorabinda. This community’s history offers a lens through which to view the application of Queensland’s protectionist and wartime legislations. The Cape Bedford community’s absorption into the Manpower Directorate during the Second World War, after they were removed to Woorabinda, was among the most extreme examples of government control over Indigenous labour. This study is the first work to clearly outline the extent of collaboration between the Queensland state government and Aboriginal settlements with the Manpower Directorate. More broadly, the true extent of the Aboriginal workforce – large and well organised – is being revealed. This thesis thus adds significantly to the growing literature demonstrating the significant contribution of Aboriginal workers to Queensland’s economy. Furthermore, it argues that ‘work’ was integral to the relationships formed between Aboriginal people and the white community. This is done through examination of labour conditions, and work as a site of exchange and contact. In doing so, the social tensions both within and outside this community regarding land and labour are exposed, along with the importance of work to the everyday experience of community members.

  • Prostitution and the Shaping of “Settler” Society in Australia
    International Review of Social History 44 (1999), Supplement, pp. 101—122 © 1999 Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis Sex Workers or Citizens? Prostitution and the Shaping of "Settler" Society in Australia* RAELENE FRANCES INTRODUCTION The history of prostitution, defined as the commercial exchange of sexual services, provides a fertile ground for the study of the intersections between gender, race and class. Obviously, the sale of sexual labour has implications for constructions of gender, although the specific implications may change with time. Commercial sex offers particularly sharp insights into the ways in which gender considerations intersect with class and race because of the physical intimacy and potential for procreation involved in the sex act. Prostitution literally forces societies to come face to face with their assump- tions about and attitudes to class and race hierarchies and relationships. The Australian case is especially useful for studying these relationships because of the imbalance in the ratio of men to women which has characterized colonial society generally and certain types of communities in particular, and the ways in which this imbalance affected some classes and ethnic groups more than others. Colonial Australia also provides a complex tapestry of ethnic/racial issues because it included divisions not just between "white" settlers and indigenous Aborigines, but also between both of these groups and various groups of immigrant, "coloured" workers. In the twentieth cen- tury, when demographic patterns became more balanced in gender terms and more homogenous in racial terms, the international sex industry con- tinued to be important because it played a part in Australia's quest for recognition as an independent member of the community of "civilized", white, nations.

  • Richard White's Inventing Australia: Revisiting the Invention Forty Years
    Richard White’s Inventing Australia: revisiting the invention forty years later Jessica Carnielab* aSchool of Humanities and Communication, University of Southern Queensland, Toowoomba, Australia; bCentre for Heritage and Culture, University of Southern Queensland, Toowoomba, Australia ORCID ID https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7462-0972 *Correspondence: [email protected] Jessica Carniel is Senior Lecturer in Humanities and a researcher within the Centre for Heritage and Culture at the University of Southern Queensland. Her research interests encompass various dimensions of Australian cultural representation, with a focus on multiculturalism and gender. She is the author of Understanding the Eurovision Song Contest in Multicultural Australia (Palgrave 2018) and the co-editor of Eurovision and Australia: Interdisciplinary Perspectives from Down Under (with Chris Hay, Palgrave 2019). 1 Richard White’s Inventing Australia: revisiting the invention forty years later On the occasion of the fortieth anniversary of Richard White's germinal text, Inventing Australia, this article presents a cultural history of the book, with particular attention to its influence on the fields of cultural history and Australian studies. Influenced by poststructuralist theory, White's book has prompted generations of scholars and students to critically examine the ways in which the Australian nation is 'invented' and the particular role of cultural power brokers in this process. Although White identifies historians as playing a particular role in the process of inventing the nation, it is striking to the contemporary reader how little he ultimately engaged with this observation in the text. The article compares White's approach to understanding the idea of the Australian nation and Russel Ward's exploration of Australian character in The Australian Legend, and considers the important work performed by Catriona Elder's extension of White's ideas in Being Australian.

  • Julie Evans, Patricia Grimshaw, David Philips & Shurlee Swain
    Studies in imperialism This book focuses on the ways in which the British settler colonies of Australia, Canada, New Zealand and South Africa treated indigenous Indigenous people in British settler colonies, 1830s–1910 peoples in relation to political rights, commencing with the imperial policies of the 1830s and ending with the national political settlements in place by 1910. Drawing on a wide range of sources, its comparative JULIE EVANS, PATRICIA GRIMSHAW, approach provides an insight into the historical foundations of present-day controversies in these settler societies. DAVID PHILIPS & SHURLEE SWAIN The assertion of exclusive control over the land and the need to contain indigenous resistance meant that the governments preferred to grant citizenship rights to those indigenous peoples committed to individual property and a willingness to abandon indigenous status. However, particular historical circumstances in the new democracies resulted in very different outcomes. At one extreme Maori men and women in New Zealand had political rights similar to those of white colonists; at the other, the Australian Parliament denied the vote to all Aborigines. Similarly, the new South African Government laid the foundations for apartheid, whilst Canada made enfranchisement conditional on assimilation.These differences are explored through the common themes of property rights, indigenous cultural and communal affiliations, demography and gender. This book is written in a clear readable style, accessible at all levels from first-year undergraduates

  • Introduction
    Introduction In the words of J J Healy, ‘The destruction of the Aboriginal society went hand in hand with the formation of a European society’.1 My aim in this book is to help write the story of Indigenous Australians into the Australian legend by resurrecting pockets of insight of Aboriginal culture before, or soon after, its subjugation and reassessment after British settlement. In doing so, I look at aspects of Indigenous social and culture life at the time of first or early contact, as represented in the reports or published memoirs of six colonial women. The book probes how the perception of Aborigines was first set down and how their character was distorted by ignorance and, sometimes, deception. From the broader scope of my PhD thesis, ‘In the Eye of the Beholder: Representations of Australian Aborigines in the Published Works of Australian Women Writers’, I have tweaked the analysis to favour the Indigenous people’s own ‘eye’ on the white supremacists. In doing so, I have altered the emphasis from the white women’s ‘representations’ of Aborigines to highlight the strength and authority of Indigenous Australians on inland locations at first and early contact, and into the first decades of the twentieth century. The book introduces a set of quite obscure colonial women’s writing (apart from Eliza Fraser) and interrogates them for what they reveal about the writers’ (and broader society’s) attitudes to, views on, and beliefs about Aboriginal people. The texts span the period from the 1830s to the early twentieth century and cross the colonies themselves.
