  • The Self-Management Group (SMG)
    'A map of the world that includes Utopia': The Self-Management Group and the Brisbane libertarians Tim Briedis A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Bachelor of Arts (Honours) at the University of Sydney, October 5, 2010. 1 Abstract This thesis explores a slice of Brisbane's radical history. I focus on the Self-Management Group (SMG), a revolutionary organisation that flourished from 1971-1977. The SMG formed as Brisbane activism shifted from a politics based around conscience to a revolutionary subjectivity. In 1977, the SMG dissolved. Three new organisations were formed, one of which became the Brisbane Greens in 1984. I examine the potential and pitfalls of radical organisation. While the SMG had flaws, its practice was strengthened by a utopian desire, a creative flair and a sense of how the political relates to everyday life. I argue that such utopian desire is relevant to a revitalisation of political radicalism today. 2 Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the support that I received from others. Dave, Susan, Kristy, Ack, Steve and Em allowed me to stay in their homes during my numerous research trips to Brisbane. Many thanks to the former SMG members and the other Brisbane radicals who gladly shared their memories with me. In particular, thanks to Ian Rintoul, Frank Jordan, John Jiggens and Greg George, whose personal collections of leaflets and paraphernalia were invaluable. The Fryer librarians tolerated my incessant requests for photocopying and helped me negotiate their vast array of archival material. Thanks to my parents who supported me constantly, despite my fairly idiosyncratic interests.

University of Sydney June 2011 1 Acknowledgements I would like to thank first and foremost my supervisor, Julia Horne. Thank you for always making time to see me, reading my drafts with such speed and especially for your wisdom. I would also like to thank Hannah Forsyth and John Docker, who come from two distinct generations of academics that have studied student movements. Debating ideas with you has been both invaluable and a pleasure. Special thanks must go to my interview subjects, especially John Burnheim, Jean Curthoys and Liz Jacka. They helped me come to a more nuanced understanding of the events at Sydney University in the 1970s, of which they were key players. Finally, I would like to think my friends and family who put up with me this year. I would particularly like to thank my mother, Margriet, for her patience and Ellen, for her enduring support. 2 Contents Introduction 4 Chapter One 18 The Inexplicable Revolt: The Emergence of Student Movements in the 1960s Chapter Two 42 Behind the Slogans: Participatory Democracy in the University Chapter Three 63 Philosopher Kings and Student Citizens Chapter Four 85 An Island of Democracy in a Sea of Hierarchy Conclusion 95 A Failed Experiment?

    This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published by Taylor & Francis in the Journal of the ​ Australian Library and Information Association on 20th May 2020, available online: ​ https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/24750158.2020.1760529 Radical holdings? Student newspaper collections in Australian university libraries and archives Jessie Lymn & Tamara Jones Charles Sturt University, Wagga Wagga Abstract University student newspapers have a long history across Australian university campuses of engaging with contemporary social and political issues, often reflecting a sentiment not represented in mainstream media publications. Student newspapers have a demonstrated engagement with radical thinking, dissent and political activism and are an important published record of historical discourses, contributing to a critically informed understanding of the society that produced them. This paper reports on a pilot survey of Australian university holdings of their student newspapers. Findings inform current and future student newspaper collection practices by university libraries and archives, including building ongoing relationships with editorial teams, and recommended improvements for access to this primary source material for future researchers.

It is not a selective bibliography, but is rather an effort to compile as compre­ hensive a list of references as possible, as a kind of check-list to what is available to the general reader or research worker. It has been divided into two parts, the first of which contains material directly relating to the internal affairs of the universities, whilst the items in the second concern more peripheral topics. The divisions between the two parts and the sections within them are by no means hard and fast and the inevitable overlapping has been resolved by cross-refer­ ences. For example, “University courses—education” in Part I over­ laps with “Teacher education” in Part II. A further problem concerns selection of the material.

    SEMPER FLOREAT WA news/magazne of the union VOLUME 44/16 queensland university st ludg 4067 In this, the final issue of Sempier Floreat for 1974, we examine the growth and changing nature (some would say 'decline') of the Movement of the Left at this University; and seek to understand what kind of political future we face on a'National and World scale. The Vietnam War is by no means finished, and both America and Australia continue in their support for the corrupt Saigon Regime, in violation of the Paris Peace Agreements of 1973.
