    SLAVING IN AUSTRALIAN COURTS: BLACKBIRDING CASES Home About JSPL Submission Information Current Issue Journal of Search South Pacific Law Volume 4 2000 2008 2007 SLAVING IN AUSTRALIAN COURTS: BLACKBIRDING CASES, 1869-1871 2006 2005 By Reid Mortensen[*] 2004 1. INTRODUCTION 2003 2002 This article examines major prosecutions in New South Wales and 2001 Queensland for blackbirding practices in Melanesian waters, and early regulation under the Imperial Kidnapping Act that was meant to 2000 correct problems those prosecutions raised. It considers how legal 1999 argument and adjudication appropriated the political debate on the question whether the trade in Melanesian labour to Queensland and 1998 Fiji amounted to slaving, and whether references to slaving in 1997 Australian courts only compounded the difficulties of deterring recruiting abuses in Melanesia. It is suggested that, even though the Imperial Government conceived of the Kidnapping Act as a measure to deal with slaving, its success in Australian courts depended on its avoiding any reference to the idea of slavery in the legislation itself. This is developed in three parts. Part 1 provides the social context, introducing the trade in Melanesian labour for work in Queensland. Part 2 explores the prosecutions brought under the slave trade legislation and at common law against labour recruiters, especially those arising from incidents involving the Daphne and the Jason. It attempts to uncover the way that lawyers in these cases used arguments from the broader political debate as to whether the trade amounted to slaving. Part 3 concludes with an account of the relatively more effective regulation brought by the Kidnapping Act, with tentative suggestions as to how the arguments about slaving in Australian courts influenced the form that regulation under the Act had to take.

All around the world, increasingly “socialist” central/local governments and councils, in collusion with the international bankers who fund them, are frantically getting deeper and deeper into unsustainable debt – or worse, are going bankrupt. Harsh auster ity measures are being implemented, with drastic cuts in spending, privatization of assets and huge, onerous increases in rates and taxes on property owners – Is all this happening just by chance – or is it a deliberate plot? Is it a global phenomenon? W ho is responsible? Where will all this eventually end? Using the small country of New Zealand in the South Pacific as an example, this account attempts to unmask exactly why all this is happening , and provides some unique answers how it may be stopped . “In this sense, the theory of the Communists may be summed up in the single sentence: Abolition of private property.” Karl Marx - Communist Manifesto chapter 2 , 1848 “We are at present working discreetly, with all our might, to wrest this mysterious force called sovereignty out of the clutches of the local nation states of the world.

    2008 Slavery and Constitutional Validity: Rethinking Kruger and Bray 645 SLAVERY AND CONSTITUTIONAL INVALIDITY: RETHINKING KRUGER AND BRAY STEPHEN GRAY∗ I INTRODUCTION The purpose of this article is to consider what might seem an extraordinary proposition: that ‘protective’ legislation such as the Aboriginals Ordinance 1918–1953 (NT) might be found constitutionally invalid, in whole or in part, for breach of 19th century British anti-slavery laws.1 It has been argued elsewhere, and will consequently not be argued in detail here, that the conditions under which some, indeed many, Aboriginal people lived and worked during the period in which such Ordinances were in force can be regarded as amounting to ‘slavery’.2 Aboriginal people who gave evidence to the 2006 report of the Senate Standing Committee on Legal and Constitutional ∗ BA, LLB (Hons) (Monash), LLM (Melb), PhD; Faculty of Law, Monash University. The author wishes to thank Professor Jeff Goldsworthy for his helpful comments and analysis of a piece on which this article is based. Thanks also to Ms Melissa Castan and to the anonymous reviewers and editors of the article. 1 The first of these passed by the UK Parliament was An Act for the Abolition of the Slave Trade 1807, 47 Geo III c36. This was followed by further legislative measures in 1824, 1833 and 1843. Under section 10 of the Slave Trade Act 1824 5 Geo IV c113, it was an offence to ‘deal or trade in slaves or persons intended to be dealt with as slaves’. These provisions were primarily directed at the international slave trade, particularly that coming out of Africa.

    Imperial Laws Application Bill-98-1

    IMPERIAL LAWS APPLICATION BILL NOTE THIS Bill is being introduced in its present form so as to give notice of the legislation that it foreshadows to Parliament and to others whom it may concern, and to provide those who may be interested with an opportunity to make representations and suggestions in relation to the contemplated legislation at this early formative stage. It is not intended that the Bill should pass in its present form. Work towards completing and polishing the draft, and towards reviewing the Imperial enactments in force in New Zealand, is proceeding under the auspices of the Law Reform Council. It is intended to introduce a revised Bill in due course, and to allow ample time for study of the revised Bill and making representations thereon. The enactment of a definitive statutory list of Imperial subordinate legis- lation in force in New Zealand is contemplated. This list could appropriately be included in the revised Bill, but this course is not intended to be followed if it is likely to cause appreciable delay. Provision for the additional list can be made by a separate Bill. Representations in relation to the present Bill may be made in accordance with the normal practice to the Clerk of the Statutes Revision Committee of tlie House of Representatives.
