Australian Labor Party, New South Wales Branch Annual Conference, 19 April 1935
CHAPTER 13 Australian Labor Party, New South Wales Branch Annual Conference, 19 April 1935 Report in The Sydney Morning Herald With some pride, Lang and his assistants proclaimed this as the shortest Conference ever, lasting barely one day. The excuse was that many MPs were already involved in the campaign for the State election due on 11 May. However, given some of the stormy debates of previous Con‐ ferences, the main reason was to suppress any show of dissent that would be taken up eagerly by the press. The Executive Report goes into considerable detail about the nego‐ tiations between the Federal Executive and three members of Lang’s State Executive, convened after the 1934 Federal election and anticipating the State election of May 1935. The terms of a settlement were agreed, except for one detail that was the sticking point – the acceptance back into the State party of EG Theodore. Otherwise the Lang party had made significant concessions. Sadly, negotiations were doomed as long as the two main combatants were Scullin and Lang. It would reQuire the resignation of Scullin as leader in 1935, and the electoral failure of Lang in the coming NSW election, before a deal could be done to heal that split. ξ 429 LABOR PAINS VOLUME V Executive Report of NSW ALP for 1934-35 (Mitchell Library Manuscripts, 329.3106/3) Australian Labor Party, State Of New South Wales Annual Report, 1934-1935 The Central Executive, in reviewing the work of the Movement during the period since the last Annual General Conference, wish to express their appreciation for the goodwill shown by all sections of the Movement. -
Australian Labor Party, New South Wales Branch Annual Conference, 29 – 31 March 1929
CHAPTER 7 Australian Labor Party, New South Wales Branch Annual Conference, 29 – 31 March 1929 Report in The Sydney Morning Herald One can detect that the Lang machine was already in election mode at the 1929 Conference and confident of victory. Almost no business was conducted and the meeting took only three days (allowing delegates to go to the races on Easter Monday!). No sign of disunity was allowed to develop. Part of the rationale given by the Executive was that the two preliminary regional conferences had done their work so well that there was little for the State Conference to do. However, it was almost certainly true that the Rural and Metropolitan Conferences had been stage‐managed as efficiently as the State Conference. The one matter of controversy that surfaced was some dissatis‐ faction with instances of graft in preselection ballots, leading to suggestions that these ballots should be abolished – with all decisions presumably to be made by the Executive. That proposal (originating from the radical left as a veiled criticism of Inner Group meddling) was not taken up, although the Inner Group would not hesitate to interfere, officially or unofficially, in any preselections not already sewn up. ξ 211 LABOR PAINS VOLUME V Executive Report of NSW ALP for 1928-29 (Mitchell Library Manuscripts, 329.3106/3) Australian Labor Party, State of New South Wales, Executive Report Ladies and Gentlemen: The 38th Annual Report and Balance-sheet of the Australian Labor Party, State of New South Wales, is hereby submitted for your consideration.

Forced Labor in a Socialist State: Ethnic Germans from Kazakhstan and Central Asia in the Labor Army - 1941-1957
FORCED LABOR IN A SOCIALIST STATE: ETHNIC GERMANS FROM KAZAKHSTAN AND CENTRAL ASIA IN THE LABOR ARMY - 1941-1957 J. Otto POHL Assist. Prof. Social Sciences Department American University of Iraq Abstract: During World War II the Stalin regime made extensive use of forced labor in a variety of industries including logging, mining, and industrial construction. Although the conscription of civilians for industrial labor was common in the USSR during this time, one particular component of this labor went far beyond the mere militarization of factories and definitely crossed over into the category of forced labor. The NKO (People’s Commissariat of Defense) conscripted about 400,000 Soviet citizens belonging to “enemy” and 73 “unreliable” nationalities and handed them over to the NKVD (People’s Commissariat of Internal Affairs) as a labor force in the Urals, Siberia, Kazakhstan, Central Asia and other areas of the USSR. Ethnic Germans formed the largest contingent of these forced laborers with 316,000 men and women mobilized during the war. This particular institution of forced labor became known as the labor army (trudarmiia). This labor army consisted of civilians and discharged military personnel mobilized into labor columns to work in corrective labor camps (GULag) and civilian commissariats under police (NKVD- MVD) supervision.

Following that time the thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Peter Pa tmore 23'" February 2000 iv ABSTRACT The Tasmanian Labor Party has found itself, like many western social democratic parties, recently subject to challenge; not from its traditional enemy, the economic right, but froma new postmaterialist left. This thesis considers the concept of postmaterialism, its rise and role in the fo rmation of new ecocentric political parties, and its impact on the structure, ideology and electoral strategy of the Tasmanian Labor Party. Maurice Duverger's typology of political parties has been used to elucidate and consider the characteristics and fo rmation of political parties and the importance of electoral systems - particularly proportional representation - in achieving representational success. -
Uzbek: War, Friendship of the Peoples, and the Creation of Soviet Uzbekistan, 1941-1945
Making Ivan-Uzbek: War, Friendship of the Peoples, and the Creation of Soviet Uzbekistan, 1941-1945 By Charles David Shaw A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair Professor Victoria Frede-Montemayor Professor Victoria E. Bonnell Summer 2015 Abstract Making Ivan-Uzbek: War, Friendship of the Peoples, and the Creation of Soviet Uzbekistan, 1941-1945 by Charles David Shaw Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair This dissertation addresses the impact of World War II on Uzbek society and contends that the war era should be seen as seen as equally transformative to the tumultuous 1920s and 1930s for Soviet Central Asia. It argues that via the processes of military service, labor mobilization, and the evacuation of Soviet elites and common citizens that Uzbeks joined the broader “Soviet people” or sovetskii narod and overcame the prejudices of being “formerly backward” in Marxist ideology. The dissertation argues that the army was a flexible institution that both catered to national cultural (including Islamic ritual) and linguistic difference but also offered avenues for assimilation to become Ivan-Uzbeks, part of a Russian-speaking, pan-Soviet community of victors. Yet as the war wound down the reemergence of tradition and violence against women made clear the limits of this integration. The dissertation contends that the war shaped the contours of Central Asian society that endured through 1991 and created the basis for thinking of the “Soviet people” as a nation in the 1950s and 1960s. -
Putting People First Policy & Agenda Committee Report
STATE CONFERENCE 2014 Labor STATE CONFERENCE 2014 PUTTING PEOPLE FIRST POLICY & AGENDA COMMITTEE REPORT 1 2014 STATE CONFERENCE CONFERENCE POLICY AND AGENDA COMMITTEE REPORT Introduction The Conference Policy and Agenda Committee was established following a rules change at the 2012 Annual State Conference. The Committee is responsible for setting the agenda of the Conference, as well as making recommendations to the Conference regarding policy items that have been submitted. The Committee formed the following nine sub-committees to draft recommendations for the submitted motions ■ A Healthy Society ■ Australia and the World ■ Building Sustainable Communities ■ Country Labor ■ Education and Skills ■ Indigenous People and Reconciliation ■ Our Economic Future ■ Prosperity and Fairness at Work ■ Stronger Democracy and Social Justice A Healthy Society The previous Federal Labor Government had many achievements in health policy. The Committee wishes to recognise the work undertaken by the former Government, particularly Health Ministers Nicola Roxon and Tanya Plibersek. Labor can be proud of its record, including the National Health Reform Agreement, the Preventative Health Taskforce, cigarette plain packaging, the Living Longer – Living Better plan and the rollout of the eHealth system. Unfortunately, the election of the Abbott Coalition Government has put these achievements at risk. We have already seen $50 billion ripped from the health system, which could see over 300 hospital beds closed in NSW alone. The universality of Medicare is at stake with the introduction of an up-front fee for patients when they see a GP. This co- payment will remove the incentives to take preventative health actions. The Doctors Reform Society, AMA, ANMF, College of GPs and eminent health economists are all in opposition to the GP co-payment system. -
Assessing Levels of Comprehension H
ASSESSING LEVELS OF COMPREHENSION H Multiple Choice Reading Questions LESSON 2 Read this article about a famous Australian explorer. Then answer questions about the article. Choose the best answer for Numbers 1 to 12. Ludwig Leichhardt In 1842 a young man arrived in Sydney, New South Wales. He was from a country called Prussia, now mainly part of Germany. Ludwig Leichhardt had studied natural sciences in Germany and London. He’d decided to come to Australia to pursue his interest in botany. This was at a time when much of Australia was still unknown to Europeans and the country represented a new adventure for many. Leichhardt had very bad eyesight and didn’t have any bush skills at all. But this didn’t stop him deciding to trek overland from the Hunter River Region in New South Wales to Moreton Bay soon after he arrived. This was a very impressive journey for such an inexperienced traveller. Following this trek, Leichhardt became determined to continue his explorations, this time aiming for north Queensland. The first of Leichhardt’s three major expeditions left southern Queensland in October of 1844 and ended after a nearly 5000 kilometre overland journey to Port Essington in the Northern Territory. This took more than a year and covered huge areas of unexplored territory that no white man had seen. At one point the whole party was given up as lost. Their reappearance caused a national sensation, and when Leichhardt returned to Sydney he was given a heroic welcome. The success of the first expedition meant that the second in 1846 received a government grant and many donations. -
