The immigration contract signed By assisted migrants required the SA government to provide those who could not find private sector work with employment on puBlic works. We use new data on the compensation of unemployed and private-sector workers to examine how the SA unemployment system functioned Before and after the onset of a major economic crisis in August 1840. We conclude that the unemployment system provided highly compensated relief employment to a small numBer of migrants prior to the crisis but as migrant numBers claiming relief employment soared Between August 1840 and OctoBer 1841, the government drastically cut compensation for relief employment. The cuts occurred in tandem with the government’s release of newly surveyed rural lands, which together provided incentives and opportunities for workers to move to rural areas to seek work on newly opened farms. A comparison of the SA employment relief program with the 1843 temporary employment relief program estaBlished in the neighBoring colony of New South Wales (NSW) shows that the NSW program neither estaBlished guarantees of joBs for assisted migrants unable to find work nor provided jobs for all assisted migrants without work during the 1843-1845 period.

  • At the Time When Our First Colonial Surgeon Dr William Wyatt Strode The
    William Wyatt Oration Dr Philip Harding 17th July 2002 I thank you for the privilege of speaking to you today. I have chosen to deviate from the tradition of Foundation Day addresses and to speak on a contemporary social issue, but at the same time to view it from the perspective of the people and forces responsible for the development of South Australia and indeed the foundation of this hospital 162 years ago this week. It is now 309 days since 11th September 2001 and much has changed in our world. There have been economic burdens, inconvenience and frustration; but above all, a change from our comfortable sense of safety and security to one of uncertainty and suspicion. Obviously, these feelings have been most manifest in the United States; but they have occurred in Australia and last September they became focused on the flow of refugees arriving on our shores, mostly from that very part of the world where the trouble had arisen. Ragged, desperate and terrified people suddenly became potential terrorists. We saw increasing efforts to deflect these arrivals - the so-called "Pacific solution". At the same time, we began to hear international criticism of our treatment of refugees, and were confronted with reports of mental illness, suicide attempts and hunger strikes amongst those detained at Woomera and elsewhere. Since 1999, a large number of boat loads of people seeking refuge or asylum has come to our northern shores mostly by way of Indonesia. Whilst there was the impression of a huge invasion, the fact is that the numbers were but a small proportion of those arriving in countries with land borders or even in the British Isles.

Household names, often with preserved archives, have had their company stories written by academics, journalists, and former senior employees. Broader national studies have analysed the role that big business has played in a country’s economic development. While sometimes this work has alleged oppressive anti-competitive behaviour, much has been written from a more positive perspective. Business historians, influenced by the pioneering work of Alfred Chandler, have implicated the ‘visible hand’ of large scale enterprise in national economic development particularly through their competitive strategies and modernised governance structures, which have facilitated innovation, the integration of national markets, and the growth of professional bureaucracies. While our understanding of the role of big business has been enriched by an aggregation of case studies, some writers have sought to study its impact through economy-wide lenses. This has typically involved constructing sets of the largest 100 or 200 companies at periodic benchmark years through the twentieth century, and then analysing their characteristics – such as their size, industrial location, growth strategies, and market share - and how they changed over time.

    CENTRE FOR ECONOMIC HISTORY THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY DISCUSSION PAPER SERIES ! THE AUSTRALIAN BANK CRASHES OF THE 1890S REVISITED DAVID T. MERRETT UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE DISCUSSION PAPER NO. 2013-05 APRIL 2013 THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY ACTON ACT 0200 AUSTRALIA T 61 2 6125 3590 F 61 2 6125 5124 E [email protected] http://rse.anu.edu.au/CEH The Australian Bank Crashes of the 1890s Revisited David T. Merrett University of Melbourne Abstract Financial crises occurred in many countries in the early 1890s, most of which were connected to international capital flows. Australia, a major importer of capital, had difficulty borrowing after the Baring crisis. This paper argues that the consequences of the banking crash in early 1893 were shaped by local factors. A fortuitous legislative change averted a calamity by allowing for reconstruction rather than liquidation of banks; economic activity was depressed as banks became more conservative lenders; and the reconstructions reduced the wealth of domestic bank creditors and shareholders. We conclude by noting that there was no targeted policy response in the short or medium term to prevent a recurrence of such an event. The author would like to thank the referees for this journal, together with Bernard Attard, André Sammartino, John Waugh and the participants at the Financial Crises and Workouts: Historical Perspectives Workshop at the Australian National University on 5 September 2012 for their suggestions and advice. 1 Introduction Previous studies of the Australian bank crash of the 1890s have taken a local view of the episode within the context of a surge in and then cessation of British capital inflow.

  • Understanding the Reasons Behind the Failure of Wakefield's Systematic Colonization in South
    When Colonization Goes South: Understanding the Reasons Behind the Failure of Wakefield’s Systematic Colonization in South Australia Edwyna Harris Monash University Sumner La Croix* University of Hawai‘i 3 December 2018 Abstract Britain after the Napoleonic wars saw the rise of colonial reformers, such as Edward Wakefield, who had extensive influence on British colonial policy. A version of Wakefield’s “System of Colonization” became the basis for an 1834 Act of Parliament establishing the South Australia colony. We use extended versions of Robert Lucas’s 1990 model of a colonial economy to illustrate how Wakefield’s institutions were designed to work. Actual practice followed some of Wakefield’s principles to the letter, with revenues from SA land sales used to subsidize passage for more than 15,000 emigrants over the 1836-1840 period. Other principles, such as surveying land in advance of settlement and maintaining a sufficient price of land, were ignored. Initial problems stemming from delays in surveying and a dysfunctional division of executive authority slowed the economy’s development over its first three years and led to a financial crisis. These difficulties aside, we show that actual SA land institutions were more aligned with geographic and political conditions in SA than the ideal Wakefield institutions and that the SA colony thrived after it took measures to speed surveying and reform its system of divided executive authority.

  • 3.0 Adelaide Park Lands & Squares Tulya Wodli
    3.0 ADELAIDE PARK LANDS & SQUARES 3.0 ADELAIDE PARK LANDS & SQUARES 3.1.26 Tulya Wodli/Park 27 Report TULYA WODLI: 435 3.0 ADELAIDE PARK LANDS & SQUARES Tulya Wodli/Park 27 Historical Overview: Site Context Arising from Light’s plan, Tulya Wodli/Park 27 today consists of land bounded by the North Adelaide Railway Line, the River Torrens/Karrawirra Parri, and Port Road and excludes land presently occupied by SA Transport (railways land), Adelaide Gaol, and Thebarton Police Barracks. Originally Tulya Wodli/Park 27 consisted of only a small portion of the present Tulya Wodli/Park 27 and has experienced several administrative boundary changes over the years. Prior to 1899, and Pelzer’s appointment as City Gardener, Tulya Wodli/Park 27 consisted of land that is now the lower Golf Course portion of Park 1, together with the triangular portion of present Park 27 along Park Terrace that was known as Park 27A and comprised 14.2.35 acres (5.7ha). At the time of Pelzer’s appointment the majority of the land from and encircling the Police Barracks across to Morphett Street was used as a ‘Plantation of Olives’, as the Corporation’s Sheep & Cattle Market, a small portion as Railway Reserve, and a rectangular tract next to the Sheep Market as Park 25A. There was no Park designation or reference number that described the present area north of the Police Barracks, nor the land between the River Torrens/Karrawirra Parri and the Port Adelaide railway line. Instead, this land was directly associated with the Corporation’s Slaughter House and Cattle Yards functions, and was principally used as agistment paddocks associated with these functions.

  • Adelaide Botanic Gardens Conservation Study
    5.0 ASSESSMENT OF CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE Section 5.0 ASSESSMENT OF CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE Figure 5.1 Extract of Western Wild Garden landscape design prepared by landscape architect Allan Correy in 1964. 199 ADELAIDE BOTANIC GARDEN CONSERVATION STUDY 5.1 KAURNA / ABORIGINAL VALUES In terms of Kaurna and Aboriginal cultural significance to the place, anthropologist Norman Tindale first described the Kaurna tribe as occupying the Adelaide plains and consisting of several groups of people or ‘hoades’ (Tindale 1974, p.213; Tindale 1987, pp.5-13), thereby geographically locating the Kaurna country and epithet ‘Kaurna’. William Wyatt first used the term Kaurna when describing the tribal associations of ‘Encounter Bay Bob’ (Wyatt 1879, p.24), but its origins may lie in ‘Bob’s association with the Kouandilla district of the Adelaide tribe’ (Wyatt 1879, p.23). Cowandilla is a contemporary derived nomenclature applied to a tract of the northern Adelaide plains. There appears to have been several districts within the larger ‘Adelaide tribe’ territory which spread from the Gawler River in the north to the Willunga basin in the sought flanked by the Mount Lofty escarpment to the east (Hemming 1990, p.126-142). When interviewed in 1927 Ivaritji claimed that she belonged to the ‘Dundagunya tribe’ which is probably a corruption of the contemporary name Tandanja that Tindale ascribed as occupying the area encompassed by the City of Adelaide (Gara 1990, p.64; Tindale 1987, p.10). The term Tandanya refers to a site south of Adelaide associated with the Red Kangaroo Dreaming, and Tindale claims the Tandanya clan of ‘Kaurna’ was named after the Red Kangaroo and that their main totem was the emu (Hemming 1990, p.137).
