Living Cultural Diversity in Regional Australia: an Account of the Tow N of Griffith Living Cultural Diversity in Regional Australia: An Account of the Tow n of Griffith N. L. McCubben Doctor of Philosophy 2007 University of Western Sydney Acknowledgements Many people have made this study possible. One person who has been pivotal is my Aunt and friend Pat McCubben. Her invitation for me to live with her while I was in Griffith not only furthered my ability to carry out fieldwork; it has enriched my life in many ways. The journey that has brought me to this point began in 1998 when I started an undergraduate arts degree in tourism at the University of Western Sydney which was being co-ordinated by Dr Russell Staiff. Since then, Russell has inspired, encouraged and supported me in a range of ways, most recently as my principal PhD Supervisor. I would not have achieved what I have without him. The people most able to empathise with one are others who are also on the journey. For their unfailing support and friendship I would like to thank Lillian Barry, Jasmine Foxlee, Catherine Holmes, Ryan Kift, Kel Knox, Sid Parissi, Brad Purcell, Bob Ryan and Shane Smithers, collectively, the Backpassage Philosophical Society. Partners and family always put up with a lot. Thanks must go to John for his support and for never doubting my ability to do this no matter how much I tried to convince him otherwise. My family and friends, at times, must have felt like they were dealing with a complete alien—love and thanks for putting up with me to all of you. Without the co-operation and support of those people in Griffith who were involved, this study would not have emerged in the way that it has. I would like to thank everyone involved for their generosity—and I’m sorry I can’t name you all— especially Janine Rolles, Diane Erika, Margaret King, Rev. Matthew Trounce, Shirley Norris, and the Griffith Local Aboriginal Land Council. There were of course many other individuals who assisted me either formally or informally with the study and I thank them too, in particular my anonymous interviewees who so kindly gave me their time. I hope they approve of the result. Several people in Griffith became friends and I would like to acknowledge in particular Frank and Mary Ann Signor, Polly Wilkinson and Joe Amato. A special thankyou must also go to Lucy and Peter Taylor for their interest and support, as well as to Eric Junkers. The tourism group at UWS is comprised of a fantastic bunch of academics that continually provided me with support, advice and encouragement. I would like to acknowledge you all, including Associate Professor Robyn Bushell, Dr Wendy Holland and Ian Knowd. Further institutional support came from the Centre for Cultural Research at UWS in the form of both supervision and by way of providing an active, vibrant, scholarly environment. In particular I owe a debt of gratitude to my co-supervisors Professor Bob Hodge and Professor Kay Anderson. I feel privileged to have had the support of academics of their calibre. For most of my candidature I was principally located in what was then the School Environment and Agriculture and I would like to thank former Head of School, Associate Professor Rob Mulley and the administrative staff of the school for their support. Statement of Authentication The work presented in this thesis is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, original except as acknowledged in the text.

  • The Fog on the Hill: How NSW Labor Lost Its Way Frank Sartor, Melbourne University Press, Carlton, 201, Pp X + 373, Rrp $34.99
    David Clune is Honorary Associate, Department of Government and International Relations, University of Sydney The Fog on the Hill: How NSW Labor Lost its Way Frank Sartor, Melbourne University Press, Carlton, 201, pp x + 373, rrp $34.99 David Clune There are a number of facets to Frank Sartor. There is the public image created by his — shall we say? — vigorous personality. There is also behind the scenes the diligent, hard working Minister who inspired respect and admiration. Then there is the side most on display in this book: Sartor the man of ideas and passionate vision. This is not to say that there isn’t dogmatism, self-justification and denigration of foes, but this aspect is not predominant. At first sight, Sartor’s book is a rather indigestible mix of memoir, insider’s account, analysis of the political process, essays on public policy — yet somehow it works. One reason is Sartor’s writing style: racy, engaging, argumentative, expository, magisterial. Even the most intractable material is dealt with lucidly. Detailed analyses of complex policy issues are leavened with interesting personal examples and anecdotes from Sartor’s long experience as Lord Mayor of Sydney (1991–2003) and State Minister responsible for a variety of areas: energy, cancer research, planning, environment (2003–2011). The heart of the book is, perhaps, the second chapter where Sartor defines his concept of good government. The bedrock is that politicians should have conviction, commitment and a sound system of beliefs. Good government itself has five key elements: good policy, good politics, good communication, sound implementation and transparency.

  • Cornishness and Englishness: Nested Identities Or Incompatible Ideologies?
    CORNISHNESS AND ENGLISHNESS: NESTED IDENTITIES OR INCOMPATIBLE IDEOLOGIES? Bernard Deacon (International Journal of Regional and Local History 5.2 (2009), pp.9-29) In 2007 I suggested in the pages of this journal that the history of English regional identities may prove to be ‘in practice elusive and insubstantial’.1 Not long after those words were written a history of the north east of England was published by its Centre for Regional History. Pursuing the question of whether the north east was a coherent and self-conscious region over the longue durée, the editors found a ‘very fragile history of an incoherent and barely self-conscious region’ with a sense of regional identity that only really appeared in the second half of the twentieth century.2 If the north east, widely regarded as the most coherent English region, lacks a historical identity then it is likely to be even more illusory in other regions. Although rigorously testing the past existence of a regional discourse and finding it wanting, Green and Pollard’s book also reminds us that history is not just about scientific accounts of the past. They recognise that history itself is ‘an important element in the construction of the region … Memory of the past is deployed, selectively and creatively, as one means of imagining it … We choose the history we want, to show the kind of region we want to be’.3 In the north east that choice has seemingly crystallised around a narrative of industrialization focused on the coalfield and the gradual imposition of a Tyneside hegemony over the centuries following 1650.
