Material on John Anderson in the Sydney University Archives Compiled by Jim Packer, 2005-6 a Micro-Description of All John Ander Material on John Anderson in the Sydney University Archives Compiled by Jim Packer, 2005-6 A micro-description of all John Anderson material held in records in the University of Sydney Archives, drawn from an examination of the records themselves and using as a template the Guide to the Anderson Family Archives and other personal archives guides. Records examined include: SUA P42 John Anderson and Family Papers, as well as SUA P88 (A.K. Stout); P158 (Ruth Walker); P169 (Alexander Mackie and Family); P196 (W.H.C. Eddy); P198 (Tom Rose); P212 (David Stove); and SUA M (Miscellaneous) 237, 240, 242-3, 287, 307, 468. The numbering is based on the Guides produced by the University of Sydney Archives. The format follows the Series/Box/Item registration in the Guides (all in bold type). Where there are multiple components to an item and where these seem to require expansion, I have used / annotation to indicate this further expansion.

    NOTE: This online version of the thesis uses different fonts than the printed version held in Griffith University Library, and the pagination is slightly different. The content is otherwise exactly the same. ESSENCE AND DECISION. The Case of Coronation Hill. Ian Hamilton Holland B.Sc.(Hons) Syd. U., Grad.Dip.Pub.Pol. UNE. Australian School of Environmental Studies, Faculty of Environmental Sciences, Griffith University. Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, January 1999. ii Abstract The rise of environmental issues has presented a challenge to decision-making in the area of natural resources policy. This challenge has met with diverse responses, ranging from neo-liberal attempts to incorporate environmental values into economic calculus, through ‘ecological rationalist’ arguments for the special nature of environmental issues, to radical theories of the state’s role in controlling the impact of environmental concerns on capitalist profitability. From this plethora of ideas about how to address environmental concern should emerge some directions that are more promising than others. But which? The Coronation Hill mine case, presented in this thesis, exemplified the complexities of natural resources decision-making in an environmental era. By analysis of the Resource Assessment Commission’s Inquiry into the Coronation Hill proposal, this thesis examines the strengths and weaknesses of the claims of different theoretical approaches. Such use of the single case to explore theory is exemplified by Allison’s work Essence of Decision. The RAC, as a neo-liberal institution, attempted to utilise both Pigouvian and Coasian strategies to address environmental issues. Both types of strategy emerge in the application of contingent valuation to preservation values.

  • French Nuclear Testing in the Pacific, 1995-1996, and Its Fallout For
    FRENCH NUCLEAR TESTING IN THE PACIFIC, 1995–96, AND ITS FALLOUT FOR FRENCH AUSTRALIANS1 MARGARET BARRETT Demoralised by the reverses of World War II, France in post-war years sought renewed self-respect and military independence through the development of a nuclear capability. Its atomic tests conducted in French Polynesia from 1966 aroused strong opposition in Pacific Rim countries, which applauded an indefinite moratorium declared in 1992. With the Cold War over, nuclear proliferation seemed to have been curbed. But on 13 June 1995 a newly elected French president, Jacques Chirac, announced that a further eight tests would take place before his government signed the projected Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty in 1996. Australians protested vociferously, and even Paris heard the furore. This paper highlights two aspects of the controversy whose importance has been underestimated in other accounts. They are the precedent formed by Australian anti-French sentiment in the 1970s and 1980s, and the personally damaging and long-lasting effects of public acrimony on French Australians in 1995–1996. It is argued here that over-reactions in the Australian community to the renewal of French nuclear testing in the 1990s were understandable given increasing provocation by the French government over a period of thirty years or so. It is also claimed that although a supposedly democratic people might have been expected to treat fellow Australians of French descent more generously, such an outcome was unlikely in the circumstances. In the first part of the paper an inexorable deterioration in once-friendly relations between France and Australia is shown to have resulted from events in the latter part of the twentieth century—in particular the atmospheric testing of nuclear devices at Mururoa Atoll in the early 1970s and the bombing of the Rainbow Warrior in 1985.

THE EFFECT OF COMPULSORY VOTING LAWS ON GOVERNMENT SPENDING A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts Economics by James Harrison Brookie August 2008 Accepted by: Michael Maloney, Committee Chair Robert Tollison Laura Olson ABSTRACT The United States’ voter turnout is often cited as being disappointingly low. Compulsory voting laws are offered as a possible solution to increase voter turnout and overall political participation. Opponents of the law complain that voters affected will be more politically liberal and in turn seek to enlarge the size and scope of the government. In order to determine whether this is true, a test was run on the effect compulsory voting laws have on the government revenue of 109 nations. The data held that no significant relationship exists between the two variables observed. This paper will discuss compulsory laws and the controversy surrounding them and also offer possible explanations for why the predicted correlation was not found.

  • Of a 'Contested Ground' and an 'Indelible Stain'
    Of a ‘contested ground’ and an ‘indelible stain’: a difficult reconciliation between Australia and its Aboriginal history during the 1990s and 2000s Lorenzo Veracini This article proposes an interpretative narrative of the evolution of Aboriginal history as a scholarly enterprise during the 1990s and in more recent years.1 The 1990s were characterised by attempts to synthesise the interpretative traditions resulting from pre- vious decades of scholarly activity. In more recent years, the debate has shifted dramatically, dealing specifically with the genocidal nature of white Australia’s policy towards Aboriginal peoples. The most important passages in this process are associated with the 1992 Mabo decision by the Australian High Court and the publication of the Bringing them home report of 1997.2 During the 1990s, the relationship between particular political shifts and related historical writings in Australia was comprehensively transformed and became much more direct. The writing and interpretation of history have commonly been a site for direct political contestation, but in the 1990s political agendas became an informing fea- ture of historiographical debates more than in previous decades.3 One outstanding example of this tendency is John Howard’s successful domination of the political scene — an ascendancy based also on an explicit and unambiguous effort to ‘reconquer’ his- tory for the Liberal camp.4 In this context, an array of conservative opinions has challenged academic discourse. Nonetheless, both academic commentators and Aboriginal people successfully linked the ‘unsurrendered’ character of native title and, later, of Aboriginal sovereignty to both the resistential and the collaborative practices of 1.

  • Pauline, Politics and Psychoanalysis: Theorising Racism in Australia
    Pauline, Politics and Psychoanalysis THEORISING RACISM IN AUSTRALIA ANDREW WEAR Honours Thesis 1999 Department of Political Science, University of Melbourne Supervisor: Dr Graham Little 1999 Theorising Racism in Australia Andrew Wear Table of Contents Introduction 3 Chapter 1: Psychoanalytic Speculations on Racism 8 Chapter 2: Contemporary Australian Racism 24 Conclusion 41 Bibliography 43 2 1999 Theorising Racism in Australia Andrew Wear Introduction 1996 to 1998 was a dramatic and turbulent time in Australian political life. It was a time in which race - and racism - became the issue. While race has always been an unresolved issue lurking just below the surface of the Australian psyche 1, the rise to prominence of one woman enabled race-based politics to assume momentum not seen for a long time. Pauline Hanson was an unknown political novice when she was expelled from the Liberal Party during the 1996 election campaign. Prime Minister John Howard, seeking to prove his credentials on race, withdrew Liberal Party endorsement for Hanson in the safe Labor seat of Oxley for writing in the Queensland Times that assistance to aborigines had gone ‘too far’ and that: governments shower them with money, facilities and opportunities that only these people can obtain no matter how minute the indigenous blood is that flows through their brains... 2 Appearing as a Liberal on the ballot paper, Hanson secured a swing of 21 percent - the largest anti-Labor swing in the country - and comfortably won the seat. 3 The victory was hailed by many as a case of the hard-working underdog showing up an out of touch establishment.

Over the five ensuing years, an ever-growing group of individuals assisted me along the way. Let me state from the outset that this dissertation would have been impossible without the help and encouragement of numerous people. The dissertation draws heavily upon eighty-plus in-depth interviews that I conducted with Australia’s most senior appellate judges from 1997 to 2000. These interviews were conducted under conditions of anonymity, meaning that I draw quotations from the interviews, but I nowhere disclose who made particular comments. My informants agreed, however, to have their names listed as participants, which I have done as Appendix A.

  • 'It's Mabo, It's the Constitution, It's the Vibe'
    ‘It’s Mabo, It’s the Constitution, It’s the Vibe’ Debates over the ‘active citizen’ and Aboriginal history in the NSW History Syllabus in the 1980s and 1990s Michael David Condie University of Sydney 2012 A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of B. A. (Hons) in History Contents Synopsis ii Acknowledgements ii Introduction: Something Profound 1 Chapter One: Creating the ‘Active’ Citizen 22 Chapter Two: The Aboriginal Perspective as a means of fostering inclusive citizenship 45 Chapter Three: ‘Was this an invasion?’ 65 Bibliography 89 ii Synopsis In the 1980s and 1990s, the NSW History Syllabus was subject to debate as varying groups’ competed for control over content. This thesis focuses on one aspect of the debate: the steps that led to the inclusion of mandatory Aboriginal history in the 1992 History Syllabus and the responses this generated among the teaching profession and the community in the wider context of the history wars. This thesis argues that these debates about Aboriginal history need to be considered in the context of a renewed push for citizenship education, and the ways in which the NSW History Syllabus engaged with the idea of the ‘active citizen’. iii Acknowledgements I would like to express my sincere thanks to my supervisor, Dr Julia Horne, for her invaluable suggestions, guidance and patience over the past year. I was so fortunate to have such a wonderful supervisor and could not have completed this thesis without her support. I would like to thank all my friends for their prayers, love and care and reminding me of my true identity in Christ.
