Abstract:
The influence of feminist thought has been very important in the field of history, as it has revealed the invisibility of women in this disciplinary field, besides of studying power relations and their effects on the daily, private and public life in which both women and men are involved. Access to education, first primary, then secondary and later higher in Mexico, spanned for a period of more than a century. In some of the regions, the presence of women in higher education was in the last third of the nineteenth century in areas considered feminine, such as midwifery, nursing and others. Careers are recorded in the 20th century. In this paper we propose to review the historiography and history of women who entered the different fields of knowledge at the end of the 19th century and in the first half of the 20th century, as well as to present a panorama of the educational spaces to which the Mexican women had access.

Aim. To show the short history of the origin and development of the eugenic ideas at the beginning of the 20th century. Methods. Historical-genetic and historical-comparative methods were used. Results. The article presents the results of historical and medical research that demonstrated that close by the tasks to medicine eugenics studied inherited properties, their social manifestations and historical changes. Science eugenics gained wide circulation and recognition in 1920s in USSR. The ideas became popular that achievements of the Soviet health care, its preventive direction lead to creation of higher sanitary culture and realization of eugenic tasks for creation of the harmonious Soviet identity. Since the early 1930s in the Soviet Union the eugenics underwent severe criticism. The eugenic ideas were completely discredited by Nazi programs of fascist Germany in 1933-1945 when millions of people were exterminated. In the end of the 20th century interest in eugenics has renewed because of development of genetics. Conclusion. Despite the ambiguous past, the eugenics had played a certain positive role as it allowed understanding genetic and anthropological human features, and served as an incentive for development of medical genetics and study of genetic diseases.

Abstract:
The rise of the Lithuanian mathematical school in the second half of the 20th century is associated with the development of probability theory and its application, and the foundations of that school were insightfully laid by the famous Lithuanian mathematician Jonas Kubilius. However, the academician also had a second vocation – the history of mathematics. At the end of the 20th century, he purposefully researched the mathematical legacy of the poet, bishop A. Baranauskas, recognizing him as the first Lithuanian mathematician researcher of the second half of the 19th century. At the beginning of the 21st century, J. Kubilius undertook a detailed implementation of the idea of a work in the history of Lithuanian mathematics. For this purpose, an informal group of specialists was convened, the content of the work was planned, and the research-based book series ``From the History of Lithuanian Mathematics'' was published. The fourth book in this series, Mathematics in Lithuanian Higher Education Institutions in 1921–1944, presents the research of an academic who reveals the situation of mathematics in universities in Kaunas and Vilnius. In addition, the memoirs of mathematics history by J. Kubilius, dedicated to mathematicians Z. Žemaitis, G. Žilinskas and V. Statulevičius, should be mentioned. The article, at the end of which fragments of the author's memories are presented, is dedicated to the centenary of the birth of Academician J. Kubilius.

For many policy makers in France, internationalization of higher education is a new subject. But people have short memories. They have forgotten—or simply do not know—that French universities were pioneers and leaders in internationalization between the end of the 19th and the middle of the 20th century, before being outshone by the United States and some other countries in Europe. Faced with today’s challenges of globalization, it is time for French universities to reclaim their own history.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTWhat was the degree of Brazil's regional inequality in living standards during the first decades of the 20th century? This paper presents municipal and state information on wages and prices in order to build welfare ratios for skilled and unskilled workers between 1912 and 1940. Despite the significant differences in nominal wages and costs of living throughout the country, real wage differentials remained lower than those estimated by earlier studies. Williamson (1999) argued that real wages in the Southeast were approximately six times higher than in the Northeast during the 1930s. The new evidence in this paper suggests that wages were on average only 1.5 times higher.

Abstract. This investigation is based on a study of two paleoclimatic curves obtained in the Urals (51–59° N, 58–61° E): i) a ground surface temperature history (GSTH) reconstruction since 800 A.D. and ii) meteorological data for the last 170 years. Temperature anomalies measured in 49 boreholes were used for the GSTH reconstruction. It is shown that a traditional averaging of the histories leads to the lowest estimates of amplitude of past temperature fluctuations. The interval estimates method, accounting separately for the rock's thermal diffusivity variations and the influence of a number of non-climatic causes, was used to obtain the average GSTH. Joint analysis of GSTH and meteorological data bring us to the following conclusions. First, ground surface temperatures in the Medieval maximum during 1100–1200 were 0.4 K higher than the 20th century mean temperature (1900–1960). The Little Ice Age cooling was culminated in 1720 when surface mean temperature was 1.6 K below the 20th century mean temperature. Secondly, contemporary warming began approximately one century prior to the first instrumental measurements in the Urals. The rate of warming was +0.25 K/100 years in the 18th century, +1.15 K/100 years in the 19th and +0.75 K/100 years in the first 80 years of the 20th century. Finally, the mean rate of warming increased in the final decades of 20th century. An analysis of linear regression coefficients in running intervals of 21 and 31 years, shows that there were periods of warming with almost the same rates in the past, including the 19th century.

Abstract:
When the national Democratic Party began to transform to progressive era politics because of the New Deal, conservative reactionaries turned against the social welfare programs and used red scare tactics to discredit liberal and progressive New Deal Democrat professors in higher education. This process continued during the Second World War, when the conservatives in Texas lumped fascism and communism in order to anchor support and fire and threaten professors and administrators for advocating or teaching “subversive doctrine.” In 1948 Texas joined other southern states and followed the Dixiecrat movement designed to return the Democratic Party to its original pro-business and segregationist philosophy. Conservatives who wanted to bolster their Cold Warrior status in Texas also played upon the fears of spreading communism during the Cold War, and passed several repressive laws intended to silence unruly students and entrap professors by claiming they advocated communist doctrine. The fight culminated during the Civil Rights movement, when conservatives in the state attributed subversive or communist behavior to civil rights organizations, and targeted higher education to protect segregated universities. In order to return the national Democratic Party to the pro-business, segregationist philosophy established at the early twentieth century, conservatives used redbaiting tactics to thwart the progressivism in the state’s higher education facilities.

Abstract:
The central argument of this thesis is that a series of China's state policies, before and during the reform era, were conducive to the rise of the 1989 Chinese Student Movement (CSM). The most important of these were (1) leftist policies during Mao's era which fostered the formation of pro-democratic yet impractical intellectuals and created a university ecology that was remarkably conducive to student movements, and (2) the state-led reform which over produced students on the one hand, and blocked upward mobility channels for intellectuals and students on the other hand. These and other conducive factors to the rise of the 1989 CSM were not simply state mistakes. To a large extent, they were characteristic of the regime.
The thesis does not reject non-state centered factors such as anomic feelings toward uncertainties brought by the reform, the conflict between reformers and hardliners within the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), the rise of civil society during the eighties, the impact of Western ideologies following the open door policy or the intrinsic character of Chinese culture, that have all been hitherto proposed to explain the rise of the CSM. Rather, it incorporates these explanations under a state-centered paradigm in light of a general model (the DSSI model) that I am proposing to explain the general causes, and to a lesser extent, the dynamics of large scale social movements.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In this document specific attention was given to the foundation and development of the Department of Psychology at the University of Stellenbosch during the period 1917 to 1979. Furthermore, the role that the Department of Psychology played in the development of psychology in South Africa has been addressed. The initial development of the Department of Psychology, important staff appointments made by the Department as well as contributions made by individuals was mentioned. The role that the Department played in the development of Counselling Psychology, the development of the Clinical- and Counselling Psychology courses, the approval of these courses and the registration of psychologists are discussed. The services rendered by the Department of Psychology, as well as research that have been done and the role that the Department played in the South African context is also included in this study. The findings entailed that the Department had an important influence in the development of psychology. The Department of Psychology at the University of Stellenbosch is the oldest psychology department in South Africa. A strong scientific and experimental approach was established in the Department. Fundamental laboratory work formed the basis for a variety of internationally acknowledged research studies and publications. The Department followed a preventative approach in the training of professional psychologists. The first grade course for the training of counselling psychologists in South Africa was instituted at the Department. The Department also played a leading role in the establishment of the University of Stellenbosch Bureau for Student Counselling. The Department was often criticised for not being involved in socio-political matters in the country during the apartheid era and that the research done by the department was focused on sustaining the apartheid ideology.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In hierdie werkstuk word die totstandkoming en groei van die Departement Sielkunde aan die Universiteit van Stellenbosch tussen 1917 en 1979 sowel as die rol wat die departement in die ontwikkeling van sielkunde in Suid-Afrika gespeel het, bespreek. Die totstandkoming van die Departement Sielkunde, belangrike personeel aanstellings wat gemaak is en die belangrikste bydraes wat gelewer is, word bespreek. Daar word ook aandag geskenk aan die rol wat die Departement in die ontwikkeling van Voorligtingsielkunde gespeel het, die ontwikkeling van die Kliniese- en Voorligtingsielkunde kursusse, die goedkeuring van dié kursusse en registrasie van sielkundiges. Verder word gekyk na dienste wat deur die Departement Sielkunde gelewer is, navorsingswerk wat gedoen is asook die Departement se rol en betrokkenheid in die Suid-Afrikaanse konteks. Daar word bevind dat die Departement 'n uiters belangrike rol in die ontwikkeling van sielkunde gespeel het. Die Departement Sielkunde aan die Universiteit van Stellenbosch is die oudste sielkunde departement in Suid- Afrika. 'n Sterk wetenskaplike en eksperimentele inslag is van die begin af in die Departement gevestig. Fundamentele laboratoriumwerk wat gedoen is, het tot verskeie internasionaal erkende navorsingsaktiwiteite en publikasies gelei. In die opleiding van professionele sielkundiges is 'n voorkomende benadering deur die Departement gevolg. Die eerste graadkursus vir die opleiding van voorligtingsielkundiges in Suid-Afrika is gevolglik ook by die Departement ingestel. Die Departement het verder 'n leidende rol gespeel in die vestiging van die Universiteit van Stellenbosch se Buro vir Studentevoorligting. Dit word egter ten laste van die Departement gelê dat die Departement 'n mate van onbetrokkenheid by die sosio-politiese strominge in die land gehad het en deur sy vroeë navorsing bygedra het tot die grondlegging van die apartheidsideologie.

Full text
Abstract:
This is a study of the creation and evolution of state forestry within colonial Kenya in social, economic, and political terms. Spanning Kenya’s entire colonial period, it offers a chronological account of how forestry came to Kenya and grew to the extent of controlling almost two million hectares of land in the country, approximately 20 per cent of the most fertile and most populated upland (above 1,500 metres) region of central Kenya . The position of forestry within a colonial state apparatus that paradoxically sought to both ‘protect’ Africans from modernisation while exploiting them to establish Kenya as a ‘white man’s country’ is underexplored in the country’s historiography. This thesis therefore clarifies this role through an examination of the relationship between the Forest Department and its African workers, Kenya’s white settlers, and the colonial government. In essence, how each of these was engaged in a pursuit for their own idealised ‘good forest’. Kenya was the site of a strong conservationist argument for the establishment of forestry that typecast the country’s indigenous population as rapidly destroying the forests. This argument was bolstered against critics of the financial extravagance of forestry by the need to maintain and develop the forests of Kenya for the express purpose of supporting the Uganda railway. It was this argument that led the colony’s Forest Department along a path through the contradictions of colonial rule. The European settlers of Kenya are shown as being more than just a mere thorn in the side of the Forest Department, as their political power represented a very real threat to the department’s hegemony over the forests. Moreover, Kenya’s Forest Department deeply mistrusted private enterprise and constantly sought to control and limit the unsustainable exploitation of the forests. The department was seriously underfunded and understaffed until the second colonial occupation of the 1950s, a situation that resulted in a general ad hoc approach to forest policy. The department espoused the rhetoric of sustainable exploitation, but had no way of knowing whether the felling it authorised was actually sustainable, which was reflected in the underdevelopment of the sawmilling industry in Kenya. The agroforestry system, shamba, (previously unexplored in Kenya’s colonial historiography) is shown as being at the heart of forestry in Kenya and extremely significant as perhaps the most successful deployment of agroforestry by the British in colonial Africa. Shamba provided numerous opportunities to farm and receive education to landless Kikuyu in the colony, but also displayed very strong paternalistic aspects of control, with consequential African protest, as the Forest Department sought to create for itself a loyal and permanent forest workforce. Shamba was the keystone of forestry development in the 1950s, and its expansion cemented the position of forestry in Kenya as a top-down, state-centric agent of economic and social development.

Begum, Taslima. "A postcolonial critique of industrial design : a critical evaluation of the relationship of culture and hegemony to design practice and education since the late 20th century." Thesis, University of Plymouth, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/10026.1/3410.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis specifically focuses on the professional practices and training of Western industrial designers using postcolonial theory to inform working practices in a complex global ecology. It investigates the culturally hegemonic construction of design solutions in man-made products. By adopting key ideas from postcolonial and cultural studies as a lens to evaluate fields of industrial design discourse, practice and pedagogy, the work proceeds from the premise that design is not intrinsic to a product but the result of a myriad different forces and factors acting on it externally including hegemonic potencies. By reinterpreting technological formations in light of research emerging from post-colonial studies, it attempts to broaden our intellectual understanding of how product design in theory, practice and education can often rely upon western [hegemonic] aesthetic and deep cultural archetypes. The purpose of this enquiry is to highlight the potentials that exist to explore a synergy between east and west in industrial design with a prospective vision for global, trans-cultural design. The research claims that current design practice often leads to culturally determined - rather than universal - conceptions in design and it attempts to re-conceptualise design as practice within a necessarily hegemonic culture. This hegemony needs to be acknowledged and redressed via increased awareness and changes to the intellectual heritage and autonomy of West European and American industrial design, in its dialogue, practice and education. As an epistemological project to identify knowledge within this discourse, it suggests new methodological and strategic approaches to engage with the crisis the discipline faces in light of globalisation so as to open up future discussions in design discourse and give a voice to the many silences that make up the noise of the world. It attempts to: • Further understand the trajectory of hegemony and globalisation in relation to design, technology and culture. • Critically engage with cross- and trans-cultural, global and social design implications. • Address the discrepancies between designers’ culture and users’ culture, to expose the necessity for more culturally-cognizant design practice and pedagogic provision. The research was initiated by identifying a number of questions that designers and users may consciously or subconsciously confront when faced with products that problematise the imagined universal values of designed products in terms of gender and culture. It explores how certain design solutions produced and developed in the west and their diffusion into global, international markets and foreign cultures could affect those cultures by asking in what ways the usability, aesthetic and symbolic characteristics of these artefacts often unwittingly contribute to the privilege or marginalisation of people from particular socio-cultural backgrounds. The thesis intervention is that product designers are neither explicitly trained to comprehend nor surmount their respective cultural constraints and design education both nationally and internationally is not sufficiently equipped with the tools to acknowledge and confront this. The key arguments presented in this thesis are: 1. Products can often be deconstructed to identify cultural connotations or omissions in their design. 2. Global, a-cultural design and universal usability are fallacies that frequently deny the existence of an underlying cultural hegemony at play. 3. Mass-produced products can gradually homogenise and eradicate cultural diversity contributing to the negative effects of colonialist attitudes and/or globalisation. 4. Academia and educational institutions have the potential to extend awareness in this field to inform and train future designers and graduates to better advance design obligations in global, trans-cultural, cross-cultural and multicultural contexts.

Full text
Abstract:
The author argues that beyond religious beliefs and conservative politics, rhetorical identification played an important role in the relative calmness of the BYU campus during the turbulent Sixties. Using Bitzer's rhetorical situation theory and Burke's identification theory, the author shows that BYU's calm campus can be explained as a result of communal identification with a conservative ethos. He also shows that apparent epistemological shortcomings of Bitzer's model can be resolved by considering the power of identification to create salience and knowledge in rhetorical situations. During the Sixties, BYU administration developed policies on physical appearance that invited students to take on a conservative identity, and therefore a conservative behavior. Relationships of power and hierarchy at BYU can be understood not as quantitative and oppressive matrices, but as rhetorical choices of students to identify with the character of school president, Ernest Wilkinson, and the administration. Power, then, is as Foucault envisioned it—as a field wherein identity and discourse are negotiated. This thesis argues for a more broad understanding of identification, ethos, and power for explaining rhetorical behavior in communal situations.

Abstract:
Euclid’s definition of a point as “that which has no part” has been a major source of controversy in relation to the epistemological and ontological presuppositions of classical geometry, from the medieval and modern disputes on indivisibilism to the full development of point-free geometries in the 20th century. Such theories stem from the general idea that all talk of points as putative lower-dimensional entities must and can be recovered in terms of suitable higher-order constructs involving only extended regions (or bodies). This chapter focuses on what is arguably the first thorough proposal of this sort, Whitehead’s theory of “extensive abstraction”, offering a critical reconstruction of the theory through its successive installments: from the purely mereological version of ‘La théorie relationniste de l’espace’ (1916) to the refined versions presented in An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Natural Knowledge (1919) and in The Concept of Nature (1920) to the last, mereotopological version of Process and Reality (1929).

Abstract:
After the communist takeover, by the end of the 1940s, the previously privately owned spas fell into state hands. This was also the fate of the Harkány and Sikonda spas in Baranya County. In 1928, the Salgótarján Coal Mine Company searched for coal in the forest of the Parish of the Cathedral in Pécs, when it found the thermal water source at a depth of 318 meters. The forest councillor of the Cathedral, Andor Kolossváry, recognising the potential of the spring, using the analysis of the chief chemist of the Danube Steamboat Shipping Company, opened a spa, in the first temporary pool of which 18,000 guests bathed in the first year. In the years that followed, its guests came in part from the ranks of the surrounding mining population, who largely treated their rheumatic ailments here. At the same time, the majority of the guests came from circles that were more able to afford higher prices. The years 1948-49 marked a turning point in the history of the spa, which gained the status of a healing spa from 1935. The nationalisation of the spa and the transformation of the hotel into a night sanatorium could be done during this period. From 1963, a mining sanatorium, which was definitely engaged in healing, also operated here. Sikonda’s institution was not unique in the country, but it became one of the most significant, in many cases exemplary, mining medical centres.

Abstract:
Teaching of descriptive geometry began in 18th-century France and became widespread in tertiary and secondary education worldwide throughout the 19th century. Until the 20th century, educators often described two aims of descriptive geometry – technical education and mathematics education. In Japan, descriptive geometry was introduced into engineering and artistic higher education after the Meiji Restoration of 1868. Descriptive geometry became part of the general secondary school curriculum in the 1880s, but it had been taught under the auspices of arts and crafts education rather than mathematics. In the early 20th century, Japanese mathematics educators began to focus on descriptive geometry as a way to reform solid geometry. When Japan’s secondary school curriculum was revised in 1942, descriptive geometry was included in solid geometry and mathematics for the first time. Although this curriculum lasted only until 1946, it was the fruit of many educators’ labors and is worthy of examination. This paper examines several books and documents from the early 20th-century Japan and shows that there was a technical, mathematics-oriented debate about the aim of descriptive geometry teaching as seen in Europe.

Abstract:
An interdisciplinary overview of more than 100 years of anti-democratic sentiment calls into question the regressive meaning of the political slogan “Make America Great Again.” The chapter is organized into four sections: (1) a review of political and economic history since the 1870s, (2) a review of media theory and history since the last third of the 20th century, (3) a theoretical excursion into social media's impact on public discourse and democracy, and (4) a theoretical proposition for employing the construct of regard as a way to negotiate the wish for both diversity and consensus, to facilitate community amid diversity, and to build democratic coalitions for progressive action in a regressive era.

Abstract:
In the early 20th century, coffee wilt disease (CWD) caused by the vascular wilt pathogen, Fusarium xylarioides, spread across Africa destroying coffee trees, reducing yields and significantly impacting producer livelihoods. Through systematic sanitation and establishment of breeding programmes in affected countries, CWD appeared to decline. However, the disease re-emerged and increased to epidemic proportions in the 1990s affecting robusta coffee in DRC, Uganda and Tanzania and arabica coffee in Ethiopia. In 1999, 14.5 million robusta coffee trees were estimated to have been destroyed in Uganda alone. This chapter discusses the history, impact, symptoms, cause and spread of CWD. A summary of the Regional Coffee Wilt Programme (RCWP) which examined many aspects of the disease and its management is also provided. . Future research trends include host specificity, underlying resistance mechanisms and the role of alternative hosts. Investigation of pathogen ecology is needed to allow greater focus on agroecological management practices.

Abstract:
This chapter presents theoretical discussions about advancing the demarginalization of African American students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) by bringing in insights from Afrocentric and symbolic-interaction perspectives. Here, the authors discuss demarginalization related to certain intra-racial and intersecting class, gender, and mental health issues emerging since COVID-19 and online learning. The ideas presented here are equally viable in student face-to-face and virtual learning environments. It begins with discussing marginalization and Afrocentric and symbolic-interaction theories. It reviews relevant literature about the history of African American education since the American Civil War, including 19th and 20th century reconstructions, Jim Crow, the rise of Historically Black Colleges and Universities, the Black student campus union and Black power movements, and other relevant happenings in Black American education.

Abstract:
The situation of French in present-day Japan derives from its current status as an international language, and a history starting in the 19th century, when French became an important language of modernization of Japan. In the 20th century, French rapidly assumed the status of a language of refinement and culture, associated with literature, intellectual thought, fashion, film, and gastronomy. This image is reflected in numerous loanwords from French in Japanese. This history led to French being one of the main foreign languages other than English taught in Japan since the Meiji era at all levels of education. French is actively studied in institutions of higher education, and is present through the network of French governmental cultural institutions in the major cities.

Abstract:
This book tells the history of college football at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) through the lens of Alonzo “Jake” Gaither’s playing and coaching career. After World War II, Gaither, as a coach, transformed Florida A&M University (FAMU) into the most dominant Black college football program over the next three decades. FAMU’s winning program was buttressed by the development of sporting congregations, a network of athletes, administrators, coaches, sportswriters, and fans that emerged in the first half of the 20th century. Finally, the growth of Black college football reflected a broader tension in African American higher education between integration and self-determination.

Abstract:
In the research scientific cooperation is seen as a form of «popular diplomacy» to the extent that it allows, although in a narrower sphere, to influence a more specific audience for the promotion of certain national and state positions. Following the example of the relations between Bulgarian and Soviet historians and linguists, mainly in the so-called Macedonian question the author outlines the mechanisms and conditions for the implementation of «popular diplomacy». The research was written on the basis of Bulgarian archive documents, as well as on contemporary Bulgarian and Russian studies on politics and historiography on the issues under consideration. Scientific cooperation between historians and linguists on both sides is considered in the light of the BCP and Bulgaria policy on the Macedonian issue of 1944–1989 and the background of the development of Bulgarian nationalism in the 1960s and 1980s. The subject of the study is the activity of the Center for Bulgarian Studies (1969–1994) and the Commission of Historians from Bulgaria and the USSR (1968–1990). It is concluded that through these forms of «popular diplomacy», supported by both the highest Bulgarian and Soviet state and political and higher scientific institutions, the Bulgarian position on the Macedonian issue is promoted, but at the cost of cessation of the studies on the history of Macedonia in the USSR.

Abstract:
Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci has been subject to numerous and various transformations in the form of (re)interpretations, reproductions, replicas, appropriations and parodies. Mona Lisa is far more than a mere Renaissance portrait or a symbol of its time. Instead Mona Lisa is radically connected with artistic movements and practices throughout the history of art as well as with the 20th and 21st century visual culture, visual commerce and social media imagery. This paper presents an activity in a higher education Department of Early Childhood where students experimented with digital tools and made a collective artwork of digital transformations of Mona Lisa. This digital experiment was a distance education project which took place during the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions in Greece. At first, students were given examples of appropriations and parodies of Mona Lisa from the history of art as well as from the visual culture. Then students gave their own "responses" through making digitally transformed versions of Mona Lisa which they put together in a collective digital mosaic. Clones, distortions, semi-transparencies, repositions and other transformations within 75 Mona Lisa versions render this collective artwork a composition with reference to pixel structure. Students' collective artwork contributed to the deeper understanding of Da Vinci's masterpiece and increased their confidence and familiarity with Renaissance painting. The case of this activity proves that digital culture is a catalyst for art history learning and creativity in the classroom. Furthermore, this activity fosters collaborative learning through distance education and turns out to be a vehicle for empowering learners in a digital world, as well as for developing linguistic, numerical and multisensory skills through digital creativity.

Abstract:
Over the span of the 20th century, the global demand for metals and minerals has increased dramatically. This is associated with a general trend of declining ore grades from most commodities, meaning higher quantities of ore needed to be processed and thus more energy. Hence, quantifying the loss of mineral capital in terms of mass is not enough since it does not take into account the quality of the minerals in the mine. Exergy is a better indicator than mass because it measures at the same time the three features that describe any natural resource: quantity, composition and a particular concentration. For the sake of better understanding the exergy results, they are expressed in tons of Metal equivalent, tMe, which are analogously defined to tons of oil equivalent, toe. The aim of this paper is 1) to show the methodology for obtaining the exergy loss of mineral resources throughout a certain period of time and 2) to apply it to the Australian case. From the available data of production and ore grade trends of Australian mining history, the tons of Metal equivalent lost, the cumulative exergy consumption, the exergy decrease of the economic demonstrated reserves and the estimated years until depletion of the main base-precious metals are provided, namely: for gold, copper nickel, silver lead and zinc.
