Повний текст джерелаThis research thesis traces the development of peak union organisation in the Hunter Valley from its beginnings in 1869 through to 1980, with a postscript covering the more recent years. The study is placed in a political and economic context with the early developments culminating in the formation of the Newcastle Trades Hall Council (NTHC) in 1926. The following chapters trace in some detail the fortunes of that organisation from then on. Although it is a chronological study, it addresses the various themes to emerge from the literature as important to peak union organisations and their historical development. These themes are discussed in the first chapter and they encompass the relationship of the NTHC to the broader labour movement within which it was operating, the degree to which authority and independence were able to be exercised and the critical inter-relationship with community. As well, it also looks at where such a peak union council was placed in respect of the competing ideologies 'socialism' and 'laborism' and the associated struggles to win the hearts and minds of the region's working class. In order to achieve this, the study takes into account the totality of the regional organisation including its industrial, cultural, community, and political involvement. Although it is primarily the history of a peak union organisation, in the process of understanding it, important aspects of the political and cultural life of the working class in the region comes to the surface and allows us a small insight into the social history of the labour movement and of the Hunter Valley's working class as a whole.

Kijas, Johanna. "Moving to the coast : internal migration and place contestation in Northern New South Wales." 2002. http://hdl.handle.net/2100/1106.
Повний текст джерелаThe study of place was often divided between the spatial interests of geographers and local historians intent on constructing heroic lineages. In the period of accelerated globalization however, discrete discourses on time and space are no longer tenable. Histories of place engage the transdisciplinary approach of recent scholarship in understanding the complexities and fluidity of the world in which we live. Places are constructed out of the enmeshing of the material, social and cultural. The reasons why people migrate both within and to particular places are also critical to the ongoing perceptions of that place, and the dynamics by which local communities operate within global networks. This thesis is an historical study of a recent sewage ocean outfall dispute between residents and the local council at Emerald Beach, in the Coffs Harbour region of New South Wales' Mid-North Coast. Alongside documentary sources, it uses oral testimony to examine the factors that contributed to people's understanding of their place, and the processes that resulted in the public contestation over that place. It argues that the positions taken in the sewage dispute cannot simply be perceived as a function of individual residents' responses within a bounded local context, but were a result of the complex processes of internal migration to the region since colonisation, and especially since the 1970s, that brought competing visions for the same place. In exploring the historical traces of the dispute, the thesis examines the first wave of non-Aboriginal migration to the coastal hinterland before turning attention to the second intensive wave of migration in the postwar period. Attention shifted away from the hinterland to the coast, and the chapters examine competing uses for the coast as local born residents, tourists and the influx of new settlers from the 1970s brought diverse dreams for the warm North Coast. In particular, the sewage conflict that grew into the direct-action protests at Emerald Beach provides clear insights into the flows of migration and settlement that led to the particular mix of people who fought for their divergent conceptions of place as critical to their lifestyle and residency. Without examining historical representations of places and events, conflict situations such as the sewage dispute at Emerald Beach cannot be fully illuminated. By demonstrating the force of internal migration on perceptions of, and contestation within place, this thesis provides one framework from which other places might be investigated.

Повний текст джерелаDespite all that has been written about the history of Australian education, there is little to show about how schools were experienced by the students for whom they were built. This thesis is an attempt to recover students’ experiences of schooling at one place in one type of schooling, from the 1930s to the 1950s. The study is situated in Newcastle, the largest provincial city in Australia. The analysis concentrates on the memories of forty female and male informants about their experiences at two state secondary schools which were selective and single sex. The schools were Newcastle Girls High School and Newcastle Boys High School. The thesis employs a blended oral history methodology developed for the study called ‘history-in-the round’. The analysis is multi layered. First, the thesis aims to increase knowledge about secondary education in the past from the students’ point of view. Second, utilising the analytic lens of gender, schools are examined as places where students were constructed as young women and men. Third, the thesis includes reflections upon the nature of personal and social memory. The history-in-the-round study produced a portrait of student experiences of their schooling during the period. It traced students’ progress through their schooling from the time of their selection and transition from the primary schools until their exits at various points from the secondary system. It exposed the micro practices of the schools to scrutiny with regard to such areas as students’ experiences of curriculum, teachers and extra curricula activities. Furthermore, the research affirmed the importance of factors outside of the ambit of the schools, in particular family, in the experience of secondary schooling and transition out of the schools into the workforce. The fundamental differences in the women’s and men’s stories were not at first apparent as they recalled their experiences of transition into high school. Both groups recounted similar stories, filled with anxiety about the move from primary to secondary school. The deeper the analysis moved into their experiences of high school, the greater the divergences based upon gender that were displayed. By the time both groups were ready to leave school, they were set on radically different courses arising in the first instance from their sex role differentiation. Although race was not a variable in the analysis since all of the students were European, the research did reveal the power of economic and social class to produce divergent educational experiences and outcomes for both females and males. The thesis underscores the importance of awareness of class in gendered analyses. One of the basic findings was that the boys school operated within the wider society’s hegemonic view of masculinity. The school offered no challenges to the existing social order. Instead it supported that order. The school articulated its role as producing young men who would be breadwinners, social leaders, and soldiers should the society need them. The ideal model of masculinity held up to the students was ‘the gentleman’. On the whole, the male interviewees were less conscious of the forces exerted by gender formation than were the women. On the other hand, the girls school occupied an ambivalent position. Its project was deeply subversive of traditional gender roles for women, especially for high achieving girls. This subversion happened directly and indirectly. In the direct way, for example, female students were encouraged to think in terms of careers. Indirectly unmarried professional women teachers modelled an alternative life path for women outside of the domestic norm. At the same time as it was subverting the gender order, the school was advocating and reinforcing a strict normative model of femininity based on the concept of ‘the lady’. These basic differences in orientation formed the foundation for the variations in the cultures of each school. In the final section the women and the men reflected upon the differences between the education they received and education as they perceive it now. Their conclusions form the basis for an analysis of educational mythologies that exist today and which shape ideas about schools now. In this way the past ‘lives’ and informs the politics of schooling in New South Wales.

Повний текст джерелаThe second half of the twentieth century was a period of major reform in the administration of mental health in Western democracies, when the orientation of state mental health services turned from legally certified to voluntary patients and psychiatric treatment moved from hospital to community settings. This thesis tells the story of reform of the administration of mental health during the development of community mental health services from 1960 to 1980. It positions the changing role of the patient as crucial to these reforms. I argue that Newcastle and the surrounding Hunter Valley region in New South Wales, Australia, was a site of particular importance in genealogies of patients. Newcastle, an industrial, regional city, was undergoing shifts representative of wider demographic and economic trends in the West during this period, and was the location for experimentation in the administration of mental health. These developments were linked to the emergence of patient rights and obligations, and developments influenced psychiatry and medical education. While the changing authority of patients in the administration of mental health has received little scholarly attention, in this study I argue that it has a central place in mental health histories. I demonstrate this by reconstructing the rollout of voluntary patient and community mental health services for implied patients in New South Wales in 1960-1980, with particular reference to Newcastle. I read source material against the grain to bring social and cultural perspectives to developments that shaped, and were negotiated by, patients. I draw on material from academic, health administration and community sectors, held in the David Maddison Collection in the University of Newcastle Archives, New South Wales, Australia; oral history interviews with former mental health staff and family members of patients; government reports; and interviews and published material by patients available in the public domain. In doing so I expose the lineage of twenty-first century mental health patient roles. I argue that changes in patients and services reflected an expansion in what mental health services were seen to address, and that approaches trialled in the administration of mental health have had a powerful influence on public health policy over time.
Criticos, Harry. "The effect of centralisation on regional radio: a case study of the super radio network in Northern New South Wales and South East Queensland." Thesis, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/1959.13/1312001.
Повний текст джерелаThis research presents a case study of the Super Radio Network, the largest regional radio network in New South Wales (NSW), Australia. Since the 1920s when radio, as a broadcast medium, was introduced to Australia the industry was highly regulated. This regulation extended to licensing, ownership limits, foreign investment and content. However, in 1992 the Keating Labor government further deregulated the radio industry through the Broadcasting Services Act 1992 giving licensees more freedom by removing ownership limits. Deregulation was meant to create a more diverse and localised radio industry. However, from 1992 onward, there has been an increase in the number of radio stations networking their programmes to regional Australia resulting in a perceived loss of local content and locally hosted programmes. This research examines the development of networking and the provision of local content and diversity in those networked environments. It examines, through interviews with radio practitioners, in particular programme-makers and managers within the Super Radio Network, how the role of radio practitioners as choice making agents work within the structures of legislation and radio formats to develop programme content for a local audience within a radio station’s licence area. Underlying this research is the focal theory of structuration developed by Anthony Giddens. The features of social systems and social production can be explained, according to Giddens, through the theory of structuration, specifically the notion of the duality of structure, which proposes that social systems, such as radio networks, exist through structural properties that consist of rules and resources that are both allocative (available material such as technology) and authoritative (non-material or human) and expressing the ‘mutual dependence’ of structure and agency. Interviews with radio practitioners show how these agents work within the structures in which the radio industry operates and the analysis shows how programme content is compiled and whether it relates to the local licence area. This analysis considers whether regulating local content and having locally hosted programmes adds to the localness of regional radio. Finally, as the thesis will demonstrate there is some confusion over the term ‘local’ and this confusion occurs not only in its use by programme-makers but also in its lack of definitional precision in broadcasting legislation and government policy statements. This results in problems for both the network operators and the communities they service. This research directly interrogates the question of what constitutes the local and localism by putting forward a definition of these terms to reflect the nature of regional radio as it competes with a burgeoning and fluid set of industry structures that streams audio content over the Internet.
