  • Of Mainstream Religion in Australia
    Is 'green' religion the solution to the ecological crisis? A case study of mainstream religion in Australia by Steven Murray Douglas Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the Australian National University March 2008 ii Candidate's Declaration This thesis contains no material that has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university. To the best of the author’s knowledge, it contains no material previously published or written by another person, except where due reference is made in the text. Steven Murray Douglas Date: iii Acknowledgements “All actions take place in time by the interweaving of the forces of nature; but the man lost in selfish delusion thinks he himself is the actor.” (Bhagavad Gita 3:27). ‘Religion’ remains a somewhat taboo subject in Australia. When combined with environmentalism, notions of spirituality, the practice of criticality, and the concept of self- actualisation, it becomes even harder to ‘pigeonhole’ as a topic, and does not fit comfortably into the realms of academia. In addition to the numerous personal challenges faced during the preparation of this thesis, its very nature challenged the academic environment in which it took place. I consider that I was fortunate to be able to undertake this research with the aid of a scholarship provided by the Fenner School of Environment & Society and the College of Science. I acknowledge David Dumaresq for supporting my scholarship application and candidature, and for being my supervisor for my first year at ANU. Emeritus Professor Valerie Brown took on the role of my supervisor in David’s absence during my second year.

While noting the complexity of defining clear boundaries around this issue, the committee believes that preventing the premature sexualisation of children is a significant cultural challenge. This is a community responsibility which demands action by society. In particular, the onus is on broadcasters, publishers, advertisers, retailers and manufacturers to take account of these community concerns. 1.13 Noting this heightened concern, the committee believes that this issue should be followed up and therefore recommends that the steps taken to address it by industry bodies and others should be further considered by the Senate in 18 months time.

  • Puberty in Crisis
    |Puberty in Crisis Puberty has long been recognised as a difficult and upsetting process for individuals and families, but it is now also being widely described as in crisis. Reportedly occurring earlier and earlier as each decade of the twenty-first century passes, sexual development now heralds new forms of temporal trouble in which sexuality, sex/gender and reproduction are all at stake. Many believe that children are growing up too fast and becoming sexual too early. Clinicians, parents and teachers all demand something must be done. Does this out-of-time development indicate that children’s futures are at risk or that we are entering a new era of environmental and social perturbation? Engaging with a diverse range of contemporary femi- nist and social theories on the body, biology and sex, Celia Roberts urges us to refuse a discourse of crisis and to rethink puberty as a combination of biological, psychological and social forces. CELIA ROBERTS is Senior Lecturer and Co-director of the Centre for Gender and Women’s Studies in the Department of Sociology at Lancaster University. She is a long-standing editor of the journal Feminist Theory and author of Messengers of Sex: Hormones, Biomedicine and Feminism (Cambridge, 2007).

  • Complicity As Political Rhetoric Some Ethical and Political Reflections Paul Reynolds
    Chapter 3 Complicity as Political Rhetoric Some Ethical and Political Reflections Paul Reynolds In this chapter I show the value of complicity as a rhetorical tool.1 Much of the discussion of complicity either engages with it philosophically as a con- cept that has particular meaning and power in its deployment, or deploys it in concrete cases of alleged complicity. The underlying logic to such approaches is that complicity as a concept provides a particular and useful explanatory value in its deployment. The task of the critic therefore, is an analytical one – to establish the precise meaning of the concept in order to use it effectively. Complicity is used as a concept to describe a relationship or association that may not involve direct responsibility for particular events or developments but is nevertheless of significance. Think, for instance, of the complicity of the British government and intelligence agencies in the US rendition and tor- ture of “terrorist” suspects during the Afghan and Iraq wars (see Finn in this book), or the complicity of a wide range of property and financial speculators and governmental regulatory agencies in bringing forth the financial crash of 2007–2008. The power in claims of complicity, I argue, is in its everyday usage, evoking participation in and degrees of responsibility for an act even if direct and criminal culpability is difficult to attribute. To be complicit, to use vernacular language, is to be “tarred with the brush” of blame. Recognizing this power of complicity in use, I want to argue that complic- ity is of limited value in terms of terminological exactitude.
