'Disadvantage' in Australian Indigenous Affairs Policy PROBLEMATISING THE WICKEDNESS OF ‘DISADVANTAGE’ IN AUSTRALIAN INDIGENOUS AFFAIRS POLICY Elizabeth Ann Pyle Graduate Diploma in Business Administration, Queensland University of Technology Principal Supervisor: Dr Deanna Grant-Smith Associate Supervisor: Associate Professor Robyn Mayes Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Business (Research) (Management) QUT Business School, School of Management Queensland University of Technology 2018 Keywords Aboriginal people, deficit discourses, disadvantage, Indigenous Affairs policy, interpretive policy analysis, strength-based discourses, Torres Strait Islander people, whiteness, wicked problems ii Problematising the wickedness of ‘disadvantage’ in Australian Indigenous Affairs policy Abstract Australia’s First Peoples, Aboriginal people and Torres Strait Islander people, have been the subject of and have experienced significant marginalisation as a result of the occurrence and ongoing manner of European colonisation. Despite being the focus of numerous government programs and policies designed to ‘improve’ their lives, Indigenous Australians continue to experience disproportionately negative life outcomes in areas such as education, health, justice and employment compared to non- Indigenous Australians. Collectively and individually these outcomes are classified in public policy as Indigenous disadvantage. Indigenous disadvantage has been framed as a wicked policy problem: one that is characterised as intractable, contradictory and difficult to solve. Whilst such a label recognises the social, cultural and economic complexities involved in developing and implementing Indigenous Affairs policy, classifying Indigenous disadvantage as a wicked problem also has the potential to disempower those to who are its target. It disempowers by framing the lived experiences of Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples, both collectively and individually, as an unsolvable problem. Such discourse also carries an implicit, yet powerful, assumption of inherent or unmanageable deficiency which may work against achieving the policy aims of improving the lives of Indigenous Australians and the disadvantage they experience. This research explores how the language of wickedness has influenced and continues to influence the development and implementation of Indigenous Affairs policy in Australia. In particular, cultural biases in policy discourses of Indigenous disadvantage are examined using interpretive policy analysis of key policy artefacts and the transcripts of semi-structured interviews undertaken with fifteen policy actors involved in the development and implementation of Indigenous Affairs policy. This research identified three influential discourses in historic and contemporary Indigenous Affairs policy. Namely, (1) deficit-based policy discourses including the characterisation of Indigenous disadvantage as wicked; (2) policy discourses which downplay the ongoing effects and legacies of intergenerational trauma on Indigenous disadvantage; and (3) the emergence and potential of strength-based policy discourses. Problematising the wickedness of ‘disadvantage’ in Australian Indigenous Affairs policy iii This research also highlights the role of news media coverage in shaping Indigenous Affairs policy, and finds that much of the perceived wickedness of Indigenous disadvantage is connected to the deficit discourse of Indigenous Affairs policy. The research provides further support for arguments that adopting strength- based discourses may offer greater potential for addressing disparities by moving beyond the more dominant, and limiting, negative policy discourses and toward policy partnership with Aboriginal people and Torres Strait Islander people. iv Problematising the wickedness of ‘disadvantage’ in Australian Indigenous Affairs

  • History on a Bus
    History on a Bus USING SOCIODRAMA TO ADDRESS RACISM AND RECONCILIATION HELEN KEARINS ABSTRACT In Sydney’s Redfern Park on the 10th of December 1992, the launch of the International Year of Indigenous People, the then Australian Prime Minister Paul Keating delivered a ground breaking speech that gave great hope to people working for reconciliation with Aboriginal Australians. One of those inspired to continue this work, Helen Kearins developed a workshop that assists participants to own racism and move beyond it towards genuine reconciliation with Aboriginal people. In this article, adapted from her 2011 AANZPA Accreditation thesis, she demonstrates the efficacy of sociodrama in this work. KEY WORDS Aboriginal Australians, racism, reconciliation, sociodrama, warm up, White Australians Setting the Scene On my way to or from work in Sydney, I often drive past Redfern Park. Many Australians associate the suburb of Redfern with a stereotype of Aboriginal poverty and dysfunction. Apart from the fact that the stereotype is grossly inaccurate, I have a very different association with Redfern Park. It was here on the 10th December 1992 that Prime Minister Paul Keating gave a speech, often referred to now as the Redfern Park Speech, to launch the 1993 International Year of the World’s Indigenous People. I was there. The speech was significant because it was the first time that an Australian prime minister had acknowledged that, “...the problem starts with us non-Aboriginal Australians”. He went on to say, “It begins I think with an act of recognition” and to name the elements in need of recognition. He emphasised the opportunity provided by this international year to address the injustices suffered by indigenous Australians and to continue working towards reconciliation.

  • A Systemic Linguistic Analysis of Two Prime Ministerial Speeches
    A Systemic Linguistic Analysis of Two Prime Ministerial Speeches Paul Dickinson Assignment submitted for Master of Arts in Applied Linguistics March 2009 Functional Grammar FG/09/01 Apply the principles of systemic linguistic analysis explored in the course to a comparison of the style and communicative functionality of two short texts or text extracts of your own choice. The texts should have a similar subject matter, be drawn from a similar institutional or discourse domain (science, economics, health care provision, tourism, politics, the arts etc) or have some other obvious point of similarity. They need, however, to differ significantly in some aspect of their style, structure, approach, tone. You should indicate how the texts are similar and how they are different in terms of their general stylistic properties and their communicative functionality. Your claims should be backed up by means of an analysis of the types of lexical and grammatical features explored in the course. That is to say, you should consider whether the texts are similar or different in terms of the types of textual, interpersonal and experiential (ideational) meanings explored in the materials.

  • Tahlia Grammatopoulos
    National winner Indigenous history Tahlia Grammatopoulos University Senior College Black Armband History The Power of Perception: An Investigation into the Black Armband Lens and its Influence on Perceptions of Australian History Note from the author: I would like to acknowledge and tribute the traditional guardians and custodians of this country and pay respect to their elders, past, present and future. A forewarning to the Indigenous community: this essay contains mention of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who have since passed. This piece is dedicated to the storytellers of Australian history, Indigenous and non-Indigenous alike; the intricacies of our past deserve to be voiced time and time again, until the story that is our nation’s history becomes the foundation upon which we unite and move forward. *** Australia has grappled with the notion of a single national identity since the establishment of a European presence on the 26th of January, 1788. The division between Indigenous1 and non- Indigenous Australians has been reiterated by a distortion of the events of our past, enabled by the multiple lenses of Australian history offered by historical authorities; the power of perception is therefore critical in the acceptance of Australia’s past. The Black Armband lens, popularised by the works of Henry Reynolds, has influenced the perception of Australian history to a great extent, offering a ‘reinterpretation of history’2 regarding frontier conflict. Though widely celebrated by some, the lens faced criticism as a ‘strand of political correctness’3. Elements of this debate were contested by political leaders, and the legitimacy of the Black Armband view continued to be scrutinised as its theory influenced the outcome of the Mabo decision of 1992.

  • Perspectives on Reconciliation and Indigenous Rights Nina Burridge
    Perspectives on Reconciliation and Indigenous Rights Nina Burridge Abstract This paper provides an overview of discourses of the movement for national reconciliation prevailing within the Australian socio-political context since the inception of the Council for Aboriginal Reconciliation in 1991, to the national apology delivered by the Prime Minister Kevin Rudd on 13th February 2008. It provides an framework for the various discourses of reconciliation, by exploring and analysing the accrued meanings to such terms such as ‘genuine’, substantive or ‘true’ reconciliation; the Howard’s Government’s ‘practical reconciliation’ and the Rudd government’s great attempt at ‘symbolic’ reconciliation in the national apology to Indigenous Australians. In the changing political context in Australia today this paper revisits the debates on reconciliation, and endeavours to locate the movement solidly within a human rights framework that includes first nation rights. This requires an examination of the roots of the reconciliation movement including community attitudes to reconciliation and the nature of the peoples’ movement as well as the differing perspectives of policy makers, politicians and of course, Indigenous peoples. It asks crucial questions about the progress of reconciliation and the type of reconciliation mainstream Australians will accept. In truth therefore, was the ‘National Apology’ a grand symbolic gesture by mainstream Australia to maintain the status quo and divert our eyes from the more searching questions of the ‘unfinished business’ of ‘substantive’ reconciliation which encompasses first nations rights for Indigenous peoples. Introduction Reconciliation is the contemporary name for the quest for justice for Aboriginal people in Australia within a policy based framework that extends to the early 20th Century.

It was just the right mix of a two-week camping safari and travel by ourselves. We had the big animal photography, amazing scenery, travel with a good friend from uni days, as well as encounters with people from lots of different cultural groups. For us it was not only a break from our daily life in Redfern but also an opportunity to see some similarities and contrasts between our community and those in very different places. We visited the Cradle of Humankind world heritage site, north of Johannesburg where our common human ancestors lived more than three million years ago. We climbed through one of the Sterkfontein Caves, where the fossil remains of a human ancestor Australopithecus africanus were found in 1947. The visitors’ centre Maropeng, which means “returning to the place of origin” in Setswana, the main local indigenous language, is an engaging mix of theme park ride and museum. You travel down a dark bumpy tunnel in an inflatable raft back in time to the Big Bang, to emerge into a large light-filled interactive museum with a similar feel to the Questacon National Science and Technology Centre in Canberra. It explores genetic diversity and evolution linking the Out of Africa story of humanity with the fossil finds in this archeologically rich part of South Africa.

  • 'Great Australian Silence': How and Why the Writing of Indigenous
    The Breaking of the ‘Great Australian Silence’: How and Why the Writing of Indigenous Australian History has Changed over the Last 40 Years Caroline Beasley Abstract Australian history has not always recognised the traditional Indigenous occupants of the country. For various reasons, including prevailing ideas about race, Indigenous peoples were excluded from Australian history. Anthropologist WEH Stanner’s 1968 Boyer Lectures called historians to ensure this pervasive forgetfulness of the Indigenous population ceased, a process already under way when the lectures were delivered. The lectures had their intended effect of further encouraging the historical revision that subsequently altered the foundations of Australian history by creating a new field: Indigenous Australian history. These changes in historiography occurred gradually, and included many historians. The prevailing social and cultural forces of the time were also instrumental in aiding this revision, and included the 1967 referendum and subsequent land rights movement, societal tensions over the bicentenary celebrations in 1988, the High Court decisions of Mabo and Wik, as well as the political leadership of the time with which this field became intertwined. Ultimately Indigenous Australians moved from being a ‘melancholy footnote’ in Australian history, to occupying a central place in the historiography. Introduction It is not just a matter of attaching Aboriginal history to the back left hand corner of the old homestead or of even glassing in the back verandah. The changes will ultimately have to be far more radical — a new floor perhaps, even new foundations.1 1 Henry Reynolds, ‘History from the Frontier’, in Bain Attwood (ed.), In the Age of Mabo: History, Aborigines and Australia, Allen and Unwin, St Leonards, 1996, p.
