  • Depoliticising Native Title Mediation, Uncertainty and the Extension of State Government Power in Western Australian Native Title Determinations
    Depoliticising Native Title Mediation, uncertainty and the extension of state government power in Western Australian native title determinations Benjamin H. Ripper This thesis is presented for the degree of Master of Arts of The University of Western Australia Discipline of Anthropology & Sociology School of Social Sciences 2013 ii Abstract The Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) (NTA) provides a statutory framework for Indigenous Australians to claim rights over their traditional land and waters. Claims are successful if these rights are deemed to have existed at sovereignty and survived post-sovereignty into the present. The Act was introduced as a result of the High Court Decision in Mabo and Others v Queensland (No. 2) (1992) and was met with by turns with celebration, confusion, consternation and fear. The subsequent push to federally legislate the decision was met with strong opposition from state governments and the mining lobby who demanded 'certainty' in granted land titles. After the NTA was enacted, the position of the Western Australian state government was to resolve native title claims via litigation and to continue to criticise the legislation as an un-workable threat to the state's economy. After 2000, attitudes to native title within government and business experienced a turn- around in which native title resolution has become an accepted part of the business landscape; resolution of native title via litigation was largely replaced by negotiated determinations by consent. The increase in mediation of native title claims has been accompanied by predominantly positive language from the Western Australian state government, native title respondents and Native Title Representative Bodies.

  • Fighting for the Forests
    Fighting for the Forests A History of The Western Australian Forest Protest Movement 1895-2001 Ron Chapman BA (Hons) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University 2008 Declaration I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. Ron Chapman Abstract This thesis complements and extends Hutton and Connors' research on forest protest contained in their study of the Australian environment movement. As the first comprehensive study of Western Australian forest protest the thesis analyses the protest movement's organisation, campaigns and strategies. Its central argument is that the contemporary Western Australian native forest protest movement established a network of urban and south-west activist groups which encouraged broad public support, and that a diversity of protest strategies focused public attention on forest issues and pressured the state government to change its forest policies. The thesis identifies two distinct periods of protest activity in Western Australia. During a first period of protest from the 1890s, conservationists used non-confrontational strategies to campaign for the protection of areas of native bushland, and the formation of Western Australia's first nature conservation groups in the early twentieth century laid the foundations for a contemporary forest protest movement. A second period of protest from the mid-1950s comprised five evolutionary
