  • Chinese Public Diplomacy: the Rise of the Confucius Institute / Falk Hartig
    Chinese Public Diplomacy This book presents the first comprehensive analysis of Confucius Institutes (CIs), situating them as a tool of public diplomacy in the broader context of China’s foreign affairs. The study establishes the concept of public diplomacy as the theoretical framework for analysing CIs. By applying this frame to in- depth case studies of CIs in Europe and Oceania, it provides in-depth knowledge of the structure and organisation of CIs, their activities and audiences, as well as problems, chal- lenges and potentials. In addition to examining CIs as the most prominent and most controversial tool of China’s charm offensive, this book also explains what the structural configuration of these Institutes can tell us about China’s under- standing of and approaches towards public diplomacy. The study demonstrates that, in contrast to their international counterparts, CIs are normally organised as joint ventures between international and Chinese partners in the field of educa- tion or cultural exchange. From this unique setting a more fundamental observa- tion can be made, namely China’s willingness to engage and cooperate with foreigners in the context of public diplomacy. Overall, the author argues that by utilising the current global fascination with Chinese language and culture, the Chinese government has found interested and willing international partners to co- finance the CIs and thus partially fund China’s international charm offensive. This book will be of much interest to students of public diplomacy, Chinese politics, foreign policy and international relations in general. Falk Hartig is a post-doctoral researcher at Goethe University, Frankfurt, Germany, and has a PhD in Media & Communication from Queensland Univer- sity of Technology, Australia.

  • Nothing Is Impossible
    Nothing Is Impossible Adventures in cerebral palsy By Neil McLeod www.thespasticcentre.com.au © The Spastic Centre, 2007 From an unpublished manuscript, 1986 Our gratitude to Jan Bradbury for her work in the preparation of this book. Cover photograph: Image from early brochure of The Spastic Centre ISBN 1876564091 The Spastic Centre 189 Allambie Road Allambie Heights NSW 2100 T 02 9451 9022 F 02 9451 4877 E [email protected] W www.thespasticcentre.com.au 2 Foreword This is the story of two unique people, Audrie and Neil McLeod, who struggled against the prevailing beliefs of a particular time in Australian history to find causes and solutions for cerebral palsy. It documents the growth of an organisation that would provide the template for so many families also facing the issues resulting from the disabilities of their children. It shows what can happen when the community understands and responds to a call for justice for some of its most vulnerable members. The Spastic Centre of New South Wales could never have come into existence without the collective power of parents who challenged the status quo which treated them as victims and who were determined that the needs of their child would not be dismissed nor neglected. It is also an Australian expression of the story of mateship, of a ‘fair go’, of people supporting and nurturing each other, of community development, of conflict, turbulence and change. This is the story of my family – particularly my sister, Jennifer, who started my parents on their life pathways. Robin Way 2006 Acknowledgement The first version of this book was published by the Simul Press in Japan in 1994 as a consequence of the deep and enduring ties formed between The Spastic Centre of NSW and the McLeod Society of Japan, in particular the late Mr Takeo Noda, Dr Takahashi, and Professor Ohtsuka.

  • Plumages and Moult of the Little Eagle Hieraaetus Morphnoides
    VOL. 13 (4) DECEMBER 1989 103 AUSTRALIAN BIRD WATCHER 1989, 13 , 103-113 Plumages and Moult of the Little Eagle Hieraaetus morphnoides by S.J.S. DEBUS, P.O. Box 1015, Armidale N.S.W. 2350 Summary The plumages, age criteria and moult of the Little Eagle Hieraaetus morphnoides were investigated from museum skins, captive birds and field studies in north-east New South Wales. Characteristics of juveniles, second-year birds and adults of both morphs are discussed: these relate mainly to the colour of the head and underparts (juveniles more rufous than adults of their respective morphs); the amount of black streaking on the crown, crest and underparts (heaviest in adults); the colour and contrast of the median upper-wing coverts and scapulars (paler and more prominent in adults); the presence of a uniform translucent trailing edge to the wings and tail in juveniles; and the colour of soft parts (irides changing from dark brown to reddish brown or orange-brown; cere, gape and feet tending to fade from cream or pale yellow to off-white). First-year birds show no wing or tail moult until c. 12 months old. Older birds show descendent, interrupted, symmetrical primary moult and convergent, symmetrical retrix moult, or jumbled and sometimes asymmetrical primary and rectrix moult. A rare, previously undescribed rufous morph in adults is a 'red' version of the dark morph but with the under­ wing pattern of the light morph. The proportion of dark and light birds varies geographically, with the highest proportion of dark birds on the humid east coast of Australia.
