  • Perth Strike 1897
    1 William H ‘Bill’ Mellor and the Perth- Fremantle building trades strikes of 1896-97 11,598 words/ 16,890 with notes When Bill Mellor lost his footing on a ten-metre scaffold in 1897, that misstep cost him his life, his wife and three children their provider, the Builders’ Labourers’ Society in Western Australia its most energetic official, and socialism a champion. On Thursday, 11 June, the 35-year old Mellor had been working on the Commercial Union Assurance offices on St Georges Terrace when he tumbled backwards, breaking his back, to die in hospital a few hours later.1 In the days that followed, the labour movement rallied to support Mellor’s family. Bakers, boot-makers, printers and tailors sent subscription lists around their workplaces;2 the donations from twenty building jobs totaled £174 9s 4d, while Mellor’s employer and associates contributed £50.3 The Kalgoorlie and Boulder Workers Association forwarded their collections with notes of appreciation for Mellor’s organising in Melbourne and Sydney.4 The Perth and Fremantle Councils provided their Town Halls without charge for benefit concerts.5 The Relief Fund realised £45 from the sale of Mellor’s house and allotment, in Burt Street, Forrest Hill, a housing estate in North Perth.6 The Fund’s trustees paid out £15 on the funeral, to which a florist donated wreaths,7 while a further 1 West Australian (WA), 10 June 1897, p. 4; the building opened in December, WA, 2 December 1897, p. 3. 2 WA, 29 June 1897, p. 4, 6 July 1897, p.

    Issue 18, 21/08/2020 IBAHRI Covid-19 Human Rights Monitor Release date: Friday 21 August 2020 1. Gender-based violence and women’s health 2. LGBTQI+ rights 3. Refugee camps and asylum procedures 4. Prisoners and detainees 5. Disability rights 6. Homelessness and precarious living 1 Issue 18, 21/08/2020 1. Gender-based violence and women’s health Overall, economic, social and health impacts of the pandemic are different for men and women. Women, at the heart of care and response efforts underway in being called upon to protect and care for families, children, the elderly and the sick, are disproportionately affected. 1 The pandemic has also worsened situations in conflict-affected countries, including Libya, Palestine, Syria and Yemen. In Democratic Republic of the Congo, Liberia and Sierra Leone, women were still trying to recover from the effects of the Ebola virus when the coronavirus struck. In MENA, the pandemic is expected to result in the loss of 1.7 million jobs, of which over 700,000 held by women. 2 Jamaica The level of violence against women in Jamaica was already high at 27.8 per cent per cent of ever- partnered women reporting at least one act of physical and/or sexual violence by an intimate partner in their lifetimes. This has been exacerbated by the pandemic. Further, Covid-19 has had a very specific impact on women’s and men’s livelihoods. According to a recent UN Women analysis of the labour force in Jamaica, 58,387 women compared to 36,316 men work in accommodation and food services, a proxy measure of employment in the tourism sector, one of the sectors most hard hit by the pandemic.

  • The Deakinite Myth Exposed Other Accounts of Constitution-Makers, Constitutions and Citizenship
    The Deakinite Myth Exposed Other accounts of constitution-makers, constitutions and citizenship This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University 2005 Geoffrey Trenorden BA Honours (Murdoch) Declaration I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. …………………………………….. Geoffrey Trenorden ii Abstract As argued throughout this thesis, in his personification of the federal story, if not immediately in his formulation of its paternity, Deakin’s unpublished memoirs anticipated the way that federation became codified in public memory. The long and tortuous process of federation was rendered intelligible by turning it into a narrative set around a series of key events. For coherence and dramatic momentum the narrative dwelt on the activities of, and words of, several notable figures. To explain the complex issues at stake it relied on memorable metaphors, images and descriptions. Analyses of class, citizenship, or the industrial confrontations of the 1890s, are given little or no coverage in Deakinite accounts. Collectively, these accounts are told in the words of the victors, presented in the images of the victors, clothed in the prejudices and predilections of the victors, while the losers are largely excluded. Those who spoke out against or doubted the suitability of the constitution, for whatever reason, have largely been removed from the dominant accounts of constitution-making. More often than not they have been ‘character assassinated’ or held up to public ridicule by Alfred Deakin, the master narrator of the Conventions and federation movement and by his latter-day disciples.

  • High Court of Malaya Should Allow Chin Peng to Return to Malaysia
    INTERNATIONAL CAMPAIGN BY THE INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF DEMOCRATIC LAWYERS IN SUPPORT OF CHIN PENG'S PETITION TO RETURN TO MALAYSIA Who is Chin Peng? Chin Peng, born Ong Boon Hua in the small Malaysian town of Sitiawan, Perak, in 1924, experienced the impact of the 1930’s depression on his family. As a teenager, he was drawn into student activism at his school. Many political changes were stirring in southeastern Asia at this time and Chin Peng read avidly, learning about exploitation of countries by colonizers and exploitation of laborers by industrialists. During the Japanese occupation of British Malaya from 8th December 1941 to 1945, Chin Peng was a guerilla fighter with the Communist Party of Malaya (CPM) which, nevertheless, decided to cooperate with British forces to defeat the Japanese. After the Japanese surrender, the returning British colonizers even nominated Chin Peng for the Order of British Empire, an award which he declined. For almost three years after the Second World War, the CPM under Chin Peng, by then its Secretary-General, actively participated in peaceful and democratic activities to oppose colonial rule and to secure independence for Malaya. In fact, the CPM was the first political party legally established in Malaya to demand independence and freedom, first from the British, then from the Japanese, and then from the British again. Other groups in Malaya were also seeking independence from the British including the Malay Nationalist Party (PKMM)-led Pusat Tenaga Rakyat (PUTERA), headed by Dr Burhanuddin Al-Helmy, and the All-Malayan Council for Joint Action (AMCJA), led by Tun Tan Cheng Lock, who had jointly declared a People's Constitution for an independent Malaya in 1947.

  • 74 the Problem of Information War in the Framework of Natural Law
    ESTUDIOS LIBERTARIOS VOL. 3. (2020) THE PROBLEM OF INFORMATION WAR IN THE FRAMEWORK OF NATURAL LAW – PARADOX OF TOLERANCE REVISITED IN THE LIGHT (OR DARKNESS) OF SOVIET PROPAGANDA Agnieszka Płonka Abstract In the framework of the natural law, only direct aggression or call to direct aggression may be legally punishable. However, the methods of information war and ideological subversion, while non-violent in the first stages of the long-term subversion process, are intentionally engineered to end in aggression (note: “information war” is here understood as conscious manipulation of cultural perception for future political gains, not cyberwarfare). The paper examines whether it is possible to extend the notion of aggression in the framework of the natural law to include self-defense against ideological subversion. We use the information war tactics carried out in the XX century by the KGB propaganda department (as described by Eastern bloc defectors) as the most incisive example. We show that in order to proceed with defense against such strategies, due to the subtle, stretched in time and mostly psychological nature of propaganda – we would necessarily have to break the natural law ourselves. However, we also argue that for such subversion strategies to be successful, they must be carried out in a society with an already overgrown political system where one group can exert power over another group. Therefore, to ask if we can extend the definition of aggression to information war in the framework of the natural law is meaningless, because for an information war tactic to be successful, the natural law must already be violated in the targeted society.

  • 'Malavsiao an Inevitable Creation, 16 September 1963
    'Malavsiao An Inevitable Creation, 16 September 1963 Ooi Keat Gin School of Humanities Universiti Sains Malaysia The concept of 'Malaysia' was conceived as a strategy of the westem powers, n Britain, to ensure that its former colonial possessions, namely (British) Malaya and Bomeo (sarawak, Brunei, North Bomeo) did not switch or fall into the socialist/ camp. The genesis of the formation of the Federation of Malaysia which comprised Federation of Malaya, Singapore, Sarawak, Sabah (formerly North Bomeor), and that realized on 16 September 1963 presented a bulwark to the advancement of the i the communist ideology in the Southeast Asia region. The post-war situation and conditi the then British colonial territories and protectorates of Malaya, Singapore, sarawak, and North Borneo witnessed the increasing influence and threat of communism penn the region. comparatively, however, Brunei and North Bomeo had scant Leftist impact. During the 1950s and early 1960s, the mandarins at whitehall, the Foreign office (Fo), colonial office (co) were particularly anxious and apprehensive that their possessions in Southeast Asia appeared to be susceptible and be swept by the Leftist then prevailing in the region. Symptoms of this Leftist wave could be seen in neiehbouri Indonesia (Partai Komunis Indonesia, PKI, Indonesia communist partv). the phi (Hukbalahap, Huk), and vietnam (Viet cong). within Malaya itself, there was the pro Emergency (1948-1960) with the formidable Malayan communist party (MCp), whereas singapore the Barisan sosialis (Socialist Front) was gaining strength and influence, and in Sarawak, the clandestine manoeuvres of the Sarawak communist organization ( through the sarawak united People's Party (suPP) were worrisome, developments that threatening and troublesome.

  • Red Cocaine Cocaína Vermelha
    A comum, desinformada, visão contemporânea do flagelo das drogas, o qual está devastando as mentes e corpos da juventude ocidental e assim degradando o fundo genético da humanidade, é de que isto “simplesmente aconteceu”. As recompensas financeiras, de acordo com este argumento, são tão enormes que sempre haverão forças malignas dispostas a distribuir narcóticos por dinheiro. Esta visão complacente é detonada por Cocaína Vermelha, A Drogadição da América e do Ocidente, que mostra conclusivamente que, continuamente, leninistas russos e chineses tem usado narcóticos por muitas décadas como uma arma decisiva na contínua campanha de baixo nível que estão travando contra a civilização ocidental. Seu uso de drogas como um instrumento ofensivo de “amolecimento” pressupõe a ausência de qualquer descontinuidade das intenções e práticas dos Leninistas desde 1917, e (crucialmente), desde as orquestradas “mudanças” de 1989-1991, que foram concebidas para hipnotizar e levar enganosamente o mundo a acreditar que a Revolução Mundial tinha desmoronado. A narco-guerra é baseada em uma estratégia satânica prevista por Lênin e desenvolvida por Stalin pelo seu odioso chefe de polícia Lavrentiy Beria. Depois que o chinês comunista, tendo usado narcóticos contra seu próprio povo antes de tomar o poder em 1949, tinha estendido suas operações de drogas internacionalmente, os soviéticos embarcaram a sério, sob ordens de Khrushchov, na sua própria ofensiva de drogas - reforçando uma campanha revolucionária para desmoralizar o ocidente através da degradação da moral e das instituições da sociedade, uma estratégia elabora pelo fundador do Partido Comunista Italiano, Antonio Gramsci. Dr. Joseph D. Douglass, o maior expert sobre o uso político de narcóticos, explica como um desertor tcheco, o falecido general Jan Sejna , alertou o Ocidente para esta ofensiva diabólica - e como autoridades e bancos ocidentais, corruptos e irresolutos, optaram por ignorar a realidade feia, por razões de conveniência e do “politicamente correto”.
