  • 1 Family Violence in Aboriginal Australian Communities: Causes
    1 Family Violence in Aboriginal Australian Communities: Causes and Potential Solutions Political Science Thesis April 25th 2014 Eden Littrell ‘14 I would like to express my gratitude to Carolyn Whyte, Director of Criminal Research and the Statistics Unit in the Northern Territory, and Kevin Schnepel, Lecturer at the University of Sydney, for a couple very informative email conversations. I would also like to thank Professor William Joseph for his advice and my father, Charles Littrell, for proof reading and emotional support. Last, but not least, thank you to my thesis advisor, Professor Lois Wasserspring, for her advice, support and constant feedback throughout this past year. 2 Prologue This thesis is an investigation into why family violence in Aboriginal Australian communities is so severe, and an examination of ways in which this violence might be decreased. I engage with the two competing narratives around violence in Aboriginal communities. The political left typically tells a story about the legacy of violent colonization, and the consequent need to improve Aboriginal legal rights. On the political right the narrative is less well defined, but the argument typically focuses on the importance of personal responsibility, or on the role of traditional culture in creating violence. I argue that competition between these narratives is harmful for actually reducing family violence, and that we should pursue evidence-based policy, such as alcohol restrictions, in addition to trialing and evaluating new policies. In Chapter 1, I briefly outline the higher rates of family violence in Indigenous communities. I also summarize the history of Aboriginal Australians and the contemporary argument around Aboriginal Australians and violence.

  • Indigenous Languages in Parliamentary Debate, Legislation and Statutory Interpretation
    1006 UNSW Law Journal Volume 43(3) LEGISLATING IN LANGUAGE: INDIGENOUS LANGUAGES IN PARLIAMENTARY DEBATE, LEGISLATION AND STATUTORY INTERPRETATION JULIAN R MURPHY* There are signs that Australia is beginning a long-overdue process of incorporating Indigenous languages into its parliamentary debates and legislation. These are significant developments in Australian public law which, to date, have attracted insufficient scholarly attention. This article begins the process of teasing out the doctrinal implications of this phenomenon. The article is in four Parts, the first two of which describe and normatively defend the trend towards Indigenous language lawmaking in Australia. The third Part looks abroad to how other countries facilitate multilingual parliamentary debate and legislation. Finally, the article examines the interpretative questions that multilingual legislation poses for Australian courts. Potential answers to these questions are identified within existing Australian and comparative jurisprudence. However, the ultimate aim of this article is not to make prescriptions but to stimulate further discussion about multilingual legislation, which discussion ought to foreground Indigenous voices.

  • Der Herausgeber AUSTRALIENS AUSWÄRTIGE KULTURPOLITIK
    1 Der Herausgeber Nummer 15, die erste Nummer in meiner Verantwortung, wurde erfreulicherweise so aufgenommen, dass ich mit dem neuen Format fortfahre. Das Schwerpunktthema Multikulturalismus hat trotz einiger Lücken, die die Leser unschwer feststellen werden, eine breite Palette an Beiträgen stimuliert, wobei es erfreulich ist, dass das Thema Aborigines breiten Raum einnimmt. Die Bereiche Rezension und Dokumentation haben sich bewährt und erweitert, so dass die Leser mehr Information finden werden. Hinsichtlich der Recherchehilfen im Internet werden AusLit und andere erwähnt. Hier sollten sich vor allem jüngere Mitglieder aufgerufen fühlen, auch wenn bei der Altersgruppe, zu der der Herausgeber gehört, die höchsten Zuwachsraten in der Internetnutzung festgestellt wurden. Noch etwas problematisch ist die formale Seite des Newsletter, und das style sheet sei den Beiträgern besonders empfohlen. Wie erwähnt, werden die Leser einige Lücken beim Thema Multikulturalismus konstatieren. Das Thema ist abgesunken, der in Forschung, Lehre und populärer Literatur weit verbreitete Begriff ist ins "Aus" geraten, was auch die 2. Auflage der Enzyklopädie The Australian people (hsg. von J. Jupp, 2002) beweist. Doch ist es schon signifikant, wenn der australische Premierminister John Howard anlässlich einer Ansprache in Berlin am 2. Juni 2002 dieses Wort nicht ein einziges Mal in den Mund nahm, ja auch das Wort Kultur vermied und keinen Hinweis auf Aborigines machte. Hätte sein Vorgänger auch darauf verzichtet, auf Multikulturalität als Folge kultureller oder demographischer Gegebenheiten hinzuweisen? Als er 1995 Berlin besuchte, tat er es jedenfalls nicht. Für Howard waren Wirtschaft, Finanzpolitk, ethical capitalism, wie er ihn nannte, Schlüsselworte, die in einem Forum der Deutschen Bank sicher interessant waren, aber nicht das letzte Wort sein können.

  • A Critical Sociological Inquiry Into the Aboriginal Art Phenomenon
    Hope, Ethics and Disenchantment: a critical sociological inquiry into the Aboriginal art phenomenon by Laura Fisher A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of PhD (Sociology) University of NSW 2012 ii PLEASE TYPE THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Fisher First name: Laura Other name/s: Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD (Sociology) School: Social Sciences and International Studies Faculty: Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences Title: Hope, Ethics and Disenchantment: a critical sociological inquiry into the Aboriginal art phenomenon Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art art has come to occupy a significant space in the Australian cultural landscape. It has also achieved international recognition as one of the most interesting aesthetic movements of recent decades and has become highly valuable within the art market. Yet there is much that remains obscure about Aboriginal art. It seems at once unstoppable and precarious: an effervescent cultural renaissance that is highly vulnerable to malign forces. This thesis brings a critical sociological perspective to bear upon the unruly character of the Aboriginal art phenomenon. It adopts a reflexive and interdisciplinary approach that brings into dialogue scholarship from several fields, including anthropology of art, art history and criticism, post-colonial critique, sociology of art and culture, theories of modernity, theories of cross-cultural brokerage and Australian political history. By taking this approach, the thesis is able to illuminate the intellectual and aesthetic practices, social movements and political events that have been constitutive of Aboriginal art‟s meaning and value from the late 19th Century to the present.
