    REFLECTIVE PERSPECTIVES: NEGOTIATIONS AT AND WITHIN THE BORDERS OF CULTURAL DIFFERENCE A post-qualitative inquiry of cultural hybridity within third space enunciations Megan Ann Wood Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Education (Research) Centre for Learning Innovation Faculty of Education Queensland University of Technology December, 2015 Keywords border crossing pedagogy, Indigenous, non-Indigenous, collaboration, difference, intercultural, negotiation, post-qualitative, third space, cultural hybridity i Acronyms NEAF: National Ethics Application Form ii Abstract This research has sought to explore the in-between space of intercultural collaboration between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous peoples in Australia. The overarching aim of this research is to explore the negotiations of cultural difference through articulated moments of intercultural collaboration and interaction in an attempt to support a deeper understanding and awareness of the pedagogical practice of collaboration between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous peoples in Australia. A post-qualitative inquiry has guided me in my engagement with two publicly available reflective outputs (as ‘data’ for analysis), multiple theories, literature, stories and personal experiences to dwell at the borders of cultural difference. I also acknowledge throughout this research project that ideology, imbued through discourse, has the power to enforce or challenge cultural and social domination. This in turn creates cultural hegemony, a process whereby a particular social and cultural group has the power to influence the thoughts, expectations and behaviours of the rest of society. As I consider the concept of negotiations in moments of intercultural collaboration and notions of reconciliatory projects and solidarity, it is important that I maintain critical awareness of ideological presence in discourse and its influential authority over people.

The uses and limits of Turkey’s “sport power” Jean-François Polo 1 For the first time in its fifteen years of brilliant yet unsuccessful candidacies to host the Olympic Games (OG) and the Football European Championships (Euro), Turkey was admitted into the elite group of countries capable of staging sports mega-events. Although it failed in the last round for the 2020 Olympic Games (beaten by Tokyo in 2013), and for the Euro 2016 (beaten by France in 2010), it has since been tipped as the strong favourite to host Euro 2024. International matches have been simultaneously utilized by the Turkish government as an opportunity to publicly demonstrate its willingness to resolve historically problematic issues with other countries, notably Armenia, Greece, and Syria.
