The Australian Head of State: Putting Republicanism Into the Republic
The Australian Head of State: Putting Republicanism into the Republic The Australian Head of State: Putting Republicanism into the Republic* Harry Evans A reasonably detached observer could be forgiven for thinking that the Australian republican movement is floundering. The arguments against sharing a nominal head of state with another country, which is now a member of a foreign quasi-federation, seemed so irresistible. Why does the movement fall so far short of the degree of popular support required to carry the change? A large part of the explanation is provided by a lack of coherence in the official republican movement, which is illustrated by the head of state issue.1 Having proclaimed that the monarchy must go, and that we must have an Australian president, the movement immediately founders on the question of how the replacement is to be chosen. The response of a large majority of Australians, according to the polls, is that they want to elect a president.2 The official republicans recoil in horror from such a suggestion, resort to irrational arguments against it, and speak of the need to re-educate the public.3 It has to be explained to the people that we are making the change in such a way as to avoid changing the system of government: an odd argument for any kind of reformers attempting to persuade people to change anything.

Australian Native Plants Society Conference
1 AUSTRALIAN NATIVE PLANTS SOCIETY NATIONAL CONFERENCE SPEECH BY HER EXCELLENCY PROFESSOR THE HONOURABLE KATE WARNER AC GOVERNOR OF TASMANIA WREST POINT, SANDY BAY, MONDAY 15 JANUARY 2018 Good morning delegates, and thank you for inviting me to open the Australian Native Plants Society national conference. I begin today by paying my respects to the Mouheneener people, the traditional and original owners of this land ̶ those who have passed before us; and in acknowledgement of today’s Tasmanian Aboriginal community, being the custodians of this land. I am informed that your conference is a biennial event that brings you together from all around Australia and that there a few delegates from overseas too.1 I wish to warmly welcome all of you to Tasmania and I do hope you get a chance to explore our beautiful island while you are here. I know that there are excursions during the conference and also pre- and post conference excursions for delegates. There is so much to see. I am a keen bushwalker and like many Tasmanians have walked the overland track, including climbing Pelion West and Mt Oakleigh and marvelled at the wonderful flora which provided a welcome distraction during those, for me, quite challenging climbs. And I have also enjoyed the four-day Freycinet Experience walk in Spring with Sib Corbett as a guide explaining the flora and finding and identifying native orchids for us. I understand that Sib designed the Tasmanian section of the Botanical Gardens here in Hobart. And I can see from your program that Dr Keith Corbett is presenting about the Tasmanian Bushland Garden near Buckland, NE of Hobart, which I can strongly recommend. -

History of Anthropology Newsletter 39.1 (June 2012) / 3 1 The Utilization of Truganini’s Human Remains in Colonial Tasmania Antje Kühnast, University of New South Wales, [email protected] Between 1904 and 1947, visitors to the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery in Hobart who stepped into the Aboriginal exhibition room were instantly confronted with the death of their colony’s indigenous population—or so they were led to believe. Their gaze encountered a glass case presenting the skeleton of “Truganini, The Last Tasmanian Aboriginal” (advertisement, June 24, 1905). Also known as “Queen Truganini” at her older age, representations of her reflect the many, often contradictory, interpretations of her life and agency in colonial Tasmania. She has been depicted as selfish collaborator with the colonizer, savvy savior of her race, callous resistance fighter, promiscuous prostitute who preferred whites instead of her “own” men (e.g. Rae-Ellis, 1981), and “symbol for struggle and survival” (Ryan, 1996). -
Tasmania: Majority Or Minority Government? *
AUSTRALASIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW Tasmania: Majority or Minority Government? * Michael Lester and Dain Bolwell PhD Candidate, Institute for the Study of Social Change, Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Tasmania Associate, Institute for the Study of Social Change, Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Tasmania * Double-blind reviewed article. INTRODUCTION While the outcome of the March 2018 Tasmanian State Election was predictable,1 the controversies that dogged the campaign were not. Yet it was the aftermath of the election that was most astonishing—not only to the public but also to members of Cabinet. Tasmania is different. Its parliamentary institutions are unusual and its electoral system is distinctive. So were the issues on which the March 2018 state election was fought. In the lead up to the election both major parties campaigned to govern alone or not at all—neither in minority nor in coalition with the Greens. As well as this apparently overarching concern, there were three other major issues prominent during the campaign—an acute housing shortage, the thousands of poker machines in pubs and clubs, and the surprise matter of gun control. Health, education, law and order, the economy and who would best manage the budget were, as usual, also policy battle grounds; however, the minority government fear campaign, a television blitz on the benefits of poker machines and considerable 1 N.
