Lesley Bronwyn Harrison Thesis Behind the Boomgate: A short story cycle and accompanying exegesis Lesley Bronwyn Harrison M.Ed (Research), M.Ed, B.Ed Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of PhD Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne 2015 i Abstract This PhD research consists of two elements —an artefact of sixteen inter-related short stories in the form of a short story cycle titled Behind the Boomgate and an exegesis. The research explores the effects of a lack of affordable accommodation and the lack of a Residential Residency Act on the permanent residents of Tasmanian caravan parks. It also considers the relationship between research methodology, creative practice, and activism. The project has a threefold practice-led methodology. The project’s process is not a linear procedure but a cyclic and bottom-up application (Mafe & Brown, 2006). Firstly, it considers research for practice and documents the use of conventional research methods to provide knowledge about the content and the context for the artefact (Webb, 2008). Secondly, the project considers research into practice that generates knowledge about the techniques, approaches and thinking on the making of the artefact (Webb, 2008). The exegesis explores auto-ethnographic interpretation, social action realist writing’s ability to expose injustices, considers the question of appropriate genre, and interrogates the specific creative techniques open to me as a writer. Thirdly, the project addresses research through practice to generate knowledge about social, political and cultural issues (Webb, 2008) in the form of the artefact. Through interaction with exegetical research, a social activist short story cycle is produced. The short story cycle is executed through the setting of Brackwell Caravan Park on the Taylor River. The owners William and Clair Anderson are the principle antagonists. It follows several residents as they contend with the conflict and tension created by the social and legal complexities of living in the caravan park. ii Acknowledgements My initial appreciation is to Dr. Martin Andrew who saw the feasibility of this project and started me on the Swinburne journey. My particular gratitude is reserved for my supervisor, Dr Carolyn Beasley, who during the weekly phone calls constantly listened to my thoughts and ideas, offered thorough academic advice and encouragement and skilful (though left-handed) attention to each draft. To Dr Lorraine Fleckhammer for perceptive comments and keen editing. A special thanks to academic staff at Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne in particular Professor Josie Arnold for her exegesis critique and advice and fellow student writers who shared their passion at the annual school symposiums. To my friends Karen Crawford, Judy Northeast and Penny Willington who commented on parts of stories in the artefact without knowing why, and who, as my captive audience endured endless storyline ramblings. To all baby boomers who live in caravan parks. And finally to my husband Les, who patiently sat through countless afternoon readings, who could spot flaws readily and already understands the extent to which I appreciate his encouragement and help. iii Declaration I certify that the thesis entitled ‘Behind the Boomgate: A short story cycle and accompanying exegesis’ submitted for the degree of PhD contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma; to the best of my knowledge contains no material previously published or written by another person except where due reference is made in the text; and is not based on joint research or publications.

Introduction According to the 1901 Census, Newfoundland had lived in communities along the coast and made their a population of 220 984, including 3947 people living through the fishery – 70.6 per cent of the working recorded in Labrador. The population continued population.

Mobile app±based (mobile health [mHealth]) interventions present a novel approach to both reducing stress and improving well-being. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a self-guided mobile app±based psychological intervention for people providing care to family or friends with a physical or mental disability. Methods: In a randomized, single-blind, controlled trial, 183 caregivers recruited through the web were randomly allocated to either an intervention (n=73) or active control (n=110) condition. The intervention app contained treatment modules combining daily self-monitoring with third-wave (mindfulness-based) cognitive-behavioral therapies, whereas the active control app contained only self-monitoring features.

    (Re)membering the Quilombo: Race, Ethnicity, and the Politics of Recognition in Brazil By: Elizabeth Farfán A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Joint Doctorate of Philosophy with the University of California San Francisco in Medical Anthropology in the Graduate Division of the University of California Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Nancy Scheper-Hughes, Chair Professor Charles Briggs Professor Sharon Kaufman Professor Teresa Caldeira Fall 2011 Abstract by Elizabeth Farfán Joint Doctorate of Philosophy in Medical Anthropology with the University of California San Francisco University of California Berkeley Professor Nancy Scheper-Hughes, Chair African ancestry and collective resistance to slavery play a central role in access to constitutional rights for Brazilians living in rural black communities denominated comunidades remanescentes de quilombos. In the effort to repatriate lands to the descendants of quilombolas or fugitive slaves, the Brazilian government, together with the Brazilian Anthropological Association, and Black Movement activists, turned rural black communities into national patrimony through a series of public policies that emphasize their ethnic and cultural difference by connecting them to quilombo ancestors. Article 68 of the 1988 Brazilian constitution declared that any descendants of quilombos who were still occupying their ancestor’s lands should be recognized as owners and granted land titles by the federal government. With the help of NGOs, rural black communities are re-learning their identity and becoming quilombos in order to obtain the land and social rights they need to continue surviving. While the quilombo clause may seem like an important historical change in the ability of black Brazilians to use the constitution to their advantage, it is important to ask what the stakes are of becoming a quilombo for the residents of a community.

Over the head credits, it runs in a shortened version, with just the first verse, fading out on the line ‘for nothing at all’. Over the tail credits, it runs longer. The song was written by Greg Macainsh and performed by the Tony Catz Band. The lyrics that follow are provisional - the band’s singer screeches as much as sings, in the approved Jimmy Barnes hard rock style (that’s not a criticism, just an observation). Question marks at the end of lines indicate uncertain lyrics. Any suggested improvements welcome: (The music over the tail credits begins with a guitar-driven instrumental) A guy fakes the limits, he’s along the way (?)
