  • Proposal of Study
    THE TRIAL WITHIN: NEGOTIATING JUSTICE AT THE INTERNATIONAL MILITARY TRIBUNAL FOR THE FAR EAST, 1946-1948 by JAMES BURNHAM SEDGWICK B.A. (Honours), Acadia University, 2002 M.A., The University of Canterbury, 2004 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (History) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) July 2012 © James Burnham Sedgwick, 2012 Abstract This dissertation explores the inner-workings of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East (IMTFE). Commonly known as the Tokyo trial, Tokyo tribunal, or Tokyo IMT, the IMTFE brought Japan’s wartime leadership to justice for aggression, crimes against humanity, and war crimes committed during World War II. Using rare sources in three languages from public and private collections in eight countries, this dissertation presents a multi-perspective experiential history of the IMTFE in operation. By placing the court in a distinct international moment that produced the United Nations, the Nuremberg trial, the Genocide Convention, and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, among other outgrowths of global community, this work explores the IMTFE as both a groundbreaking judicial undertaking and a pioneering multilateral institution. Other scholars use overly reductive and judgmental constructs based on outside-looking-in perspectives to assess the court’s legal or moral legitimacy without appreciating or detailing its nuance and complexity. This dissertation prefers an inside-out view to explain the trial, not judge it. It describes the IMTFE as a collective endeavour and experience behind the scenes. Chapters review the personal, emotional, administrative, logistical, legal, political, and global dimensions of internationalism in action.

  • Margaret Keech
    Speech by MARGARET KEECH MEMBER FOR ALBERT Hansard 5 April 2001 FIRST SPEECH Ms KEECH (Albert—ALP) (2.30 p.m.): I am honoured to speak in this House for the first time as the member for Albert, the first woman ever to do so. In standing here today, I acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which this House of the Queensland people stands. I also respectfully acknowledge the traditional owners and the present indigenous people who call the electorate of Albert home. The magnificent win by Peter Beattie's Labor team nearly seven weeks ago was not only a victory for the Australian Labor Party but also a celebration of strong leadership, unity and integrity. Labor's policy priorities of jobs, health and education are the very same priorities of the working families in my electorate. The people of Albert—and most of them are present in the public gallery today—recognised the fact that Labor has delivered in the area and as a result registered a two-party preferred vote to Labor of 63 per cent. This is even more historic when, for the first time in 114 years, Labor won every booth on primary votes. I say this to the people of Albert: thank you for the trust you have bestowed in me and the Beattie Labor government. I will repay your trust by working hard every day and every night and by giving you a strong voice in government. I place on record my thanks to Cameron Milner, who was my initial organiser but later went on to become the ALP State Secretary and director of the successful election campaign.

  • Ted Theodore: the Proto-Keynesian
    Ted Theodore: the proto-Keynesian John Hawkins1 ‘Red Ted’ Theodore served an interrupted term as treasurer in Scullin’s government during the Great Depression. He took office days before the Wall St crash. He was well read in economics, and was an early advocate of Keynesian ideas. However, the Scullin government was impeded by a hostile Senate, a recalcitrant Commonwealth Bank and a divided Labor Party, which made it extremely difficult for Theodore to implement his policies. In addition, corruption allegations led Theodore to stand aside as treasurer during a crucial period. Losing his seat at the subsequent election, Theodore then pursued a successful business career. Source: National Library of Australia. 1 The author formerly worked in the Domestic Economy Division of the Australian Treasury. This article has benefited from discussions with Selwyn Cornish and Alex Millmow. The views expressed are those of the author and not necessarily those of the Australian Treasury. 91 Ted Theodore: the proto-Keynesian Introduction Edward ‘Red Ted’ Theodore’s political career was one of great promise unfulfilled. Many regarded Theodore as our greatest treasurer2 and a poll of historians rated Theodore as the ‘best prime minister we never had’.3 Mary Gilmore rated him as one of the seven greatest living Australians.4 Theodore was particularly admired for his intelligence and knowledge of economics and finance. The conservative premier Bertram Stevens described him as ‘the coolest, best and most experienced financial brain in the southern hemisphere’.5 Kim Beazley Snr (1966) called Theodore ‘Australia’s first significant Keynesian’. What were then regarded as his heretical views became orthodoxy.6 As well as economic expertise, he had business acumen, which enabled him to rise from being a mine worker to being a mine owner.
