  • Feminism, Politics and Women's Policy in Western Australia, 1972
    Burning Down the House?: Feminism, Politics and Women’s Policy in Western Australia, 1972-1998 Jasmina Brankovich, BA (Hons) UWA This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Western Australia School of Humanities, Discipline of History 2007 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the constraints and options inherent in placing feminist demands on the state, the limits of such interventions, and the subjective, intimate understandings of feminism among agents who have aimed to change the state from within. First, I describe the central element of a „femocratic‟ policy machinery as a three-tiered network of politicians, public servants, and women in community organisations and political lobbies, who were agents of a particular brand of feminism. I focus on the formation of a women‟s information service, passage of equal opportunity legislation, and a legislative decriminalisation of early abortion, as case studies where these networks were most effective in engendering change. Second, the politics of the 1970s Perth women‟s movement shared a heritage of peculiarly Australian tradition of social liberalism, where the state intervened to equalise the unequal social order. The „feminism‟ articulated within the state was influenced by social liberalism, but was also configured and reconfigured according to the specific Western Australian political context. Third, the material obtained in interviews with women politicians and senior bureaucrats constituted the most important source of the women‟s understandings of the politically volatile arenas of public life in which they worked. In particular, insights gathered in this material underscored and reinforced the complexities of feminist involvement with the state and the fragile, contraditory nature of feminist gains.

    7530 Wednesday, 9 December 1987 THE PRESIDENT (Hon Clive Griffiths) took the Chair at 2.30 pm, and read prayers. ATTORNEY GENERAL Appointment as Queen's Counsel: Statements HON G.E. MASTERS (West - Leader of the Opposition) [2.32 pm] -- by leave: I rise to speak briefly, but with great pleasure. I wish to pass on the congratulations of the Opposition to Hon Joe Berinson on his appointment as a Queen's Counsel. Hon Joe Berinson has had a distinguished career in the Federal and State Parliaments, and it is noted in the newspaper report that 'Mr Berinson has displayed a high standard of professionalism which was deeply appreciated by all members of the legal profession." The article goes on to quote a statement from Sir Francis Burt. It is fair to say that anyone who gains an appointment as a Queen's Counsel in a legal career would consider the appointment the pinnacle of that career. Hon Joe Berinson has done more than that and has distinguished himself in the parliamentary and political scene. I place on record that we acknowledge the work he has done and the great credit he brings to himself and his family in gaining this appointment. We wish him well, and although I am sure he is not going to leave the political scene very soon as a result of this appointment - we hope it does not go to his head - in congratulating him we are by no means going to back off mn our endeavours in dealing with legislation. We congratulate Hon Joe Berinson very sincerely from this side of the House.
