  • The Theory of Successful Criminal Entrepreneurs
    THE THEORY OF SUCCESSFUL CRIMINAL ENTREPRENEURS Khaled Alnkhailan BA Criminology and Criminal Justice MA Sociology Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Law Queensland University of Technology 2017 Keywords Criminal entrepreneurs, organised crime, non-hierarchical structured organised crime, modus essendi, modus operandi, modus vivendi, leadership, vision, brokerage, bribery, blackmail, mentors, role models, human capital, the theory of successful criminal entrepreneurs. The theory of successful criminal entrepreneurs i ABSTRACT As typological category, criminal entrepreneurs have a different modus operandi from most traditional criminals. This study develops a theory of successful criminal entrepreneurs, operating in non-hierarchically structured organised crime. Successful criminal entrepreneurs cannot be described through classic criminological theories such as low self-control theory. The theory of successful criminal entrepreneurs provides an understanding of the leadership of criminal entrepreneurs which includes vision, leadership style and orientation, in addition to their identity. The theory also provides an understanding of the operational approaches used by successful criminal entrepreneurs in addition to the use of their social networks. The theory of successful criminal entrepreneurs argues that successful criminal entrepreneurs start their careers with a clearly defined vision. Criminal entrepreneurs then lead people towards their vision with a charismatic leadership

  • A History of the Askin Government 1965-1975, Phd Thesis, Loughnan
    A History of the Askin Government 1965-1975 Paul E. Loughnan BA [History], MA [History] A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of New England October 2013 Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my family and good friends; Kate, Anthony, Benjamin Samuel, Thea and Mike. I will always be grateful for their patience, encouragement and unswerving support. And I have no doubt that they were instrumental in the completion of this PhD degree. Acknowledgements The debt to my Principal supervisor Dr Tim Battin is immense. At the beginning of the candidateship the circumstances were such that without his concurrence to take me on I would not have been able to undertake and complete this dissertation. At no time did I ever have any reason to doubt his professionalism and his commitment to the academic process. From my PhD experience this approach is essential and engenders the confidence required to complete such a rigorous project. As a result I still retain the belief that it is a privilege to be a candidate in the University’s PhD degree. I acknowledge my debt to the late Dr Mark Hayne who was my first lecturer at UNE when I began my tertiary education as a mature age student. He rekindled my interest in history and encouraged me to undertake research projects. My good fortune continued when Associate Professor Frank Bongiorno arrived at UNE. His professionalism and dedication to history was inspiring. Frank supervised my Masters dissertation which culminated in my PhD candidateship. He continued his commitment and interest in my pursuits by generously allocating time to this dissertation.

  • A P O Litica L Biography O F S Ir M Ich a El B Ru Xn Er
    A political biography of Sir Michael Bruxner t h e Australian Country Party is a small group that has achieved a political suc­ cess quite disproportionate to its size. T h at success, in the author’s opinion, is due largely to the quality of its leaders. The Colonel is the political biography of one of those leaders, Sir Michael Bruxner. Dr Aitkin presents Bruxner against the background of New South Wales politics between 1920 and 1960. He allows his subject’s words and deeds to speak for themselves: the reader watches the young Bruxner develop those qualities of leadership that distinguish him from his fellow actors on the poli­ tical stage, qualities that made him un­ challenged leader of his party for thirty years. This biography, one of a growing number of studies of notable Australians, is the story of a man of dignity, human­ ity, and unquestionable integrity that will appeal not only to political scientists interested in the problems of political leadership but also to the many, from city and country alike, interested in a distinguished man who served his coun­ try well in war and peace.

  • Legislative Assembly
    1936 LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY Wednesday 20 September 2006 ______ Mr Speaker (The Hon. John Joseph Aquilina) took the chair at 10.00 a.m. Mr Speaker offered the Prayer. Mr SPEAKER: I acknowledge the Gadigal clan of the Eora nation and its elders, and thank them for their custodianship of this land. PARLIAMENTARY ELECTORATES AND ELECTIONS AMENDMENT BILL Second Reading Debate resumed from 30 August 2006. Mr BARRY O'FARRELL (Ku-ring-gai—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) [10.00 a.m.]: The Opposition will not oppose the legislation. However, for the benefit of advisers from the Cabinet Office and the Premier's Department, I indicate, as I have privately, that amendments will be moved in the other House. I will not bother this House with those amendments, as I am not into time wasting. This is important legislation in the year in which we celebrate the 150th year of our democracy, as in a sense this legislation enables our democracy to function. We cannot have responsible government without elections. We cannot have clear results without an administrative framework for elections. The Parliamentary Electorates and Elections Act provides that framework for conducting elections for this place, the other place and for the Parliament collectively. In that sense every member of Parliament has an interest in this legislation and an interest in the operations of the State Electoral Office. As a member of this place and as a former party official I have always had great respect for those who work in the State Electoral Office. I have had good relationships with successive commissioners and the commissioners' staff.

  • Introduction
    Introduction This dissertation is a history of the Askin Government from 1965 to 1975. In comparison to Labor history, there has been little written about the Liberal Party (LP) and in particular the Askin government. Apart from Norman Abjorensen’s thesis, “Leadership in the Liberal Party: Bolte, Askin and the Post-War ascendancy”, which deals with the Askin government in the context of the LP and its ascent to power, historians have neglected to undertake a comprehensive study of this important period in New South Wales (NSW) political history. The aim of this dissertation is to fill this void and add to the body of literature available on this history of NSW politics. In May 1965 Robin William Askin, who in 1973 became Sir Robert Askin, was elected Premier of NSW. He led the Liberal-Country Party Coalition until he chose to retire in 1975. The Liberals had languished in opposition for 24 years and it appeared that they were doomed to become a “permanent opposition” party. 1 This was an extraordinary period in NSW politics for the LP. Askin holds the record as the longest serving NSW Liberal Premier. 2 Along with Sir Robert Menzies, the former Australian Prime Minister, and the Victorian Premier, Sir Henry Bolte, Askin is one of the few politicians to exit from the leadership of a Liberal Government at the time of his own choosing. However, soon after Askin’s resignation the Liberals returned to the opposition benches until 1988. Before the O’Farrell Government was elected in 2011 the Liberal Party had held office in NSW for only 18 years since the end of the Second World War.
