  • Let Her Finish: Gender, Sexism, and Deliberative Participation in Australian Senate Estimates Hearings (2006-2015)
    Let Her Finish: Gender, Sexism, and Deliberative Participation In Australian Senate Estimates Hearings (2006-2015) Joanna Richards School of Government and Policy Faculty of Business, Government and Law University of Canberra ABSTRACT In 2016, Australia ranks 54th in the world for representation of women in Parliament, with women ​ accounting for only 29% of the House of Representatives, and 39% of the Senate. This inevitably ​ inspires discussion about women in parliament, quotas, and leadership styles. Given the wealth of research which suggests that equal representation does not necessarily guarantee equal treatment, this study focuses on Authoritative representation. That is, the space in between winning a seat and making a difference where components of communication and interaction affect the authority of a speaker.This study combines a Discourse Analysis of the official Hansard transcripts from the Senate Estimates Committee hearings, selected over a 10 year period between 2006 and 2015, with a linguistic ethnography of the Australian Senate to complement results with context. Results show that although female senators and witnesses are certainly in the room, they do not have the same capacity as their male counterparts. Both the access and effectiveness of women in the Senate is limited; not only are they given proportionally less time to speak, but interruption, gate keeping tactics, and the designation of questions significantly different in nature to those directed at men all work to limit female participation in the political domain. As witnesses, empirical measures showed that female testimony was often undermined by senators. Results also showed that female senators and witnesses occasionally adopted masculine styles of communication in an attempt to increase effectiveness in the Senate.

  • Australia and the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons
    AUSTRALIA AND THE TREATY ON THE PROHIBITION OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS December 2018 On July 7, 2017, 122 states voted to adopt the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW), which prohibits states from developing, possessing, or using nuclear weapons.1 While Australia did not participate in the negotiations, there is a strong movement, particularly within the Labor Party, to join the TPNW. As a self-professed “umbrella state,” Australia does not produce or possess nuclear weapons, but it claims to rely on US nuclear weapons for its defense under a policy of so-called “extended nuclear deterrence.” Although the TPNW does not explicitly address the status of nuclear umbrella states like Australia, its prohibitions make it unlawful for a state party to base its national defense on an ally’s nuclear weapons. Therefore, as a state party to the TPNW, Australia would be obliged to renounce its nuclear umbrella. From a legal perspective, Australia can take this step without undermining its collective security agreement with the United States, i.e., the Australia, New Zealand, United States Security Treaty (ANZUS Treaty).2 Joining the TPNW would further Australia’s longstanding commitment to nuclear disarmament, while preserving Australia’s military alliance with the United States. Opinion in Australia is Divided over the TPNW While Australia is not a signatory to the TPNW and did not participate in the treaty’s negotiation, government officials, political parties, and the general public have expressed divergent views about the treaty. The Government of Australia officially opposed the TPNW process. On December 23, 2016, 113 nations voted for UN General Assembly Resolution 71/258 launching negotiations on a “legally binding instrument to prohibit nuclear weapons, leading towards their total elimination.”3 Australia was one of 35 nations to vote against this resolution.4 On February 16, 2017, Australia announced its boycott of the treaty negotiations.
