  • Aingimea Commence Term As USP Chancellor
    1 REPUBLIC OF NAURU Government Information Office MEDIA RELEASE For Immediate Release Thursday, 2 July, 2020 President Aingimea commence chancellorship, wants a strong USP His Excellency President Lionel Aingimea is the third president of Nauru to hold the position of chancellor at the region’s premier institution, the University of the South Pacific. The chancellor is the titular head of the University in which President Aingimea is the 28th head of state or government to hold the title. President Aingimea says the chancellorship means “it brings what Nauru can contribute to USP” and a chance for Nauru to “put our stamp in how we think USP should be governed.” “It is my intention that as chancellor it is not just a figure head, that as chancellor I will get really involved in improving and pushing USP that will make USP proud. That will make people want to go to USP. “The USP needs to have strong staff, strong students and supported by a strong council. “The vision I see is one where staff can work in an environment without fear and without intimidation, where they can deliver what is needed either in business houses or what is needed in industries. “I want us (USP) to be at the level of excellence that is on par with the best universities in the world and I believe we are one of the premier universities in the world,” President Aingimea said, adding however, that the governance of the university needs to improve. “If the governance element of USP doesn’t improve then it gives way to corruption, it gives way to nepotism, and it gives way to an environment where people are too frightened to speak and you’ll have basically low morale and a code of ethics that is thrown out the door.” While the term of chancellor commences 1 July, President Aingimea will be officially installed at the USP’s main campus in Laucala, Suva, Fiji.

  • RACE, SELF-DETERMINATION and AUSTRALIAN EMPIRE Race, Self –Determination and Australian Empire ANTONY ANGHIE*
    RACE, SELF-DETERMINATION AND AUSTRALIAN EMPIRE Race, Self –Determination and Australian Empire ANTONY ANGHIE* This article focuses on Australia’s complex relationship with colonialism and empire. This relationship is most often examined through the related frameworks of settler colonialism and Australia’s place within the British Empire. This article sketches and explores a third framework based on what might be termed ‘Australia’s Empire’: Australia’s administration of Nauru and Papua New Guinea pursuant to a mandate of the League of Nations and subsequently, as trusteeship territories under the League of Nations. It seeks in this way to make an argument that these different forms and operations of colonialism must be studied simultaneously as they all influenced each other. Concepts of race and self-determination provide a means of linking together these different imperial experiences.

  • Nauru: International Status, Imperial Form, and the Histories of International Law
    Nauru: International Status, Imperial Form, and the Histories of International Law Anne Caithleen Storr ORCID ID: 0000-0002-5351-5767 Doctor of Philosophy February 2017 Melbourne Law School University of Melbourne Submitted in total fulfilment of the degree Abstract This thesis responds to the following question: what might a close reading of the history of Nauru as an object of international legal administration reveal about the relationship between imperialism and international law that accounts focusing on more ‘central’ sites of international legal formation do not? The thesis takes the form of an historical narrative of the changing status of Nauru in international law since the island’s violent incorporation into the German protectorate of the Marshall Islands in 1888, described in relation to corresponding changes in local administrative form. Considering in turn the imposition of the protectorate, the designation of Nauru as a C Class Mandate by the League of Nations in 1920, its re-designation by the United Nations as a Trust Territory in 1947, and its recognition as a sovereign state independent of Australia in 1968, this thesis argues that while status shifts, form accretes: as the international status of Nauru has shifted in each phase, what has occurred at the level of the administrative form is an accretive process of internal bureaucratisation and external restatement according to the prevailing concepts of the period. In order to hold the history of Nauru and the history of international law together, the thesis develops a method of redescription that borrows from jurisdictional thinking and from Weberian social theory in order to focus on local administrative form as a site of international legal formation.
