Kormilda, the way to tomorrow?: a study in Aboriginal education »

Publication date: 1976
Aborigines in Australia are demanding a kind of education that does not estrange Aboriginal children from their culture and their kin. This book discusses a situation in which such alienation was brought about. Kormilda College, a residential school for tribal Aborigines in the Northern Territory, is the focus of the study. In the college Dr Sommerlad observed young Aborigines trying to reconcile their own values and behaviour with those of the white teachers and administrators. Some students were unable to choose between black and white societies and became marginal members of both. Some felt their black identity degraded by the experience and were left in a state of confusion and self-doubt. If the education of these children is to be in harmony with the values and ideals of the community in which they live, educational reforms will have to be undertaken. From her experience at Kormilda, and drawing on the experience of United States workers with American Indians and Eskimoes, Dr Sommerlad suggests directions such reform might take and pitfalls it will need to avoid. This book must be read by all who wish to see Aborigines take their place in Australian society without losing their unique cultural identity.

Class and politics: New South Wales, Victoria and the early Commonwealth, 1890-1910 »

Publication date: 1976
What has class to do with Australia - the working man{u2019}s paradise, the egalitarian society, where mate is as good as master? Dr Rickard shows that class is more relevant than most Australians would care to believe. The period 1890-1910 is a critical one in Australian history. In 1890 Australia was little more than a collection of provincially minded colonies; by 1910 it was a nation, poised to prove the fact in a European war. Those twenty years saw the emergence of the labor party and of the basic party system as we know it today. As the trade unions gave birth to the labor parties, the employers worked to establish an anti-labor party. Until now historians have tended to study the Australian labour movement in isolation. This book places both the movement itself and the anti-labour forces, those of capital, firmly in the context of Australian society, its mores and its myths. For those interested in class and politics, and in the myths that give Australian class and politics their characteristic flavour, this book will be a welcome contibution.

New Guinea vegetation »

Publication date: 1976
The island of New Guinea is rich in vegetation varying from mangrove swamps through savanna to dense forests. Here, for the first time in one book, this vegetation is considered from the diverse viewpoints of the botanist, the ethnobotanist, the ecologist and the biogeographer. New Guinea Vegetation contains a wealth of information on the geographical and altitudinal distribution of the island{u2019}s flora, the way in which plants have migrated to and from neighbouring countries, the ecology of the various plant communities and the uses to which the people put the plants - as food or medicine, in magic and rituals, and for the manufacture of the goods needed in their day to day life. This usefully illustrated book will be invaluable for those interested in tropical plants, their ecology and uses.

Black, white and gold: gold mining in Papua New Guinea, 1878-1930 »

Publication date: 1976
Australian goldminers were among the first white men to have sustained contact with Papua New Guineans. Some Papua New Guineans welcomed them, worked for them, traded with them and learnt their skills and soon were mining on their own account. Others met them with hostility, either by direct confrontation or by stealthy ambush. Many of the indigenous people and some miners were killed. The miners were dependent on the local people for labourers, guides, producers of food and women. Some women lived willingly in the miners' camps, a few were legally married, and some raped. Working conditions for Papua New Guineans on the claims were mixed, some being well treated by the miners, others being poorly housed and fed, ill-treated, and subject to devastating epidemics. Conditions were rough, not only for them but for the diggers too. This book shows the differences in the experience of various Papua New Guinean communities which encountered the miners and tries to explain these differences. It is a graphic description of what happens when people from vastly different cultures meet. The author has drawn on documentary sources and inter views with the local people to produce for the first time, a lively history.

We, the navigators: the ancient art of landfinding in the Pacific »

Publication date: 1975
The peopling of the Pacific islands is one of the world{u2019}s greatest maritime achievements. Ever since Magellan entered the Pacific Ocean, European explorers have marveled at the excellence of the vessels they saw, at the skill and daring of the helmsmen and For two centuries people have argued about how the multitudinous islands of Polynesia, flung over some twelve million square miles of ocean and separated by hundreds of miles from the nearest continental coasts, came to be discovered and settled by a single people at a time when navigators of the 'civilized' world scarcely ventured willingly beyond the sight of land. Much writing and research have focused attention on the subject in recent years. Now, in a new approach to the question, the authors of this volume report on their use of computer techniques to provide new answers to some of the problems that are central to the controversy. The research project they report upon is of two-fold interest - first, for the light it throws on the riddle of the settlement of Polynesia, and, second, as an innovative demonstration of how computer technology may be applied to a wide variety of research in the social and physical sciences. The authors devised a computer program which simulated Pacific voyaging in its many aspects and variations. Data about winds, currents, islands, and many other pertinent matters were incorporated in the program. Using this model they conducted experiments which showed the outcomes of hypothetical voyages representing many possible variations which real voyages might embrace. The authors describe the experiments and discuss the results and conclusions, illustrating them with numerous maps and cartograms. Computer-drawn maps are included in an appendix. Michael Levison is a member of the department of computer science at Queen{u2019}s University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada, R. Gerard Ward is a professor of human geography at the Australian National University, Canberra, and John W. Webb is a professor of geography and associate dean for social sciences at the University of Minnesota.

The intruders: refugee doctors in Australia »

Publication date: 1975
Among the thousands of European refugees who arrived in Australia between 1947 and 1954 as immigrants assisted by the Australian Government were many highly qualified professionals. These included a number of doctors, whose fate is the subject of this book. Misled by information given them in Europe, the majority of these men and women arrived expecting to continue their careers. But, faced with the implacable op position of the Australian Medical Association and the indifference of the authorities, they found it impossible to obtain registration and most were forced to take jobs as hospital orderlies, cleaners, factory hands or labourers. This book examines the factors that led to the situation where, when there was an urgent need for medical practitioners in Australia, these qualified people were denied the opportunity of using their skills. The AMA emerges as the main obstruction in this affair but there is little to be said for the State and Commonwealth governments. The latter in particular, though quick to take advantage of the skills of these doctors in New Guinea and Antarctica, where Australian doctors were reluctant to go, did nothing to assist them to resume their careers in the mainland territories over which it had control. Though eventually most refugee doctors were able to obtain registration in Australia, for some it came too late and the wasted years and loss of skill represented a great deprivation, both to the doctors and to Australian society. This book is an indictment of the short-sightedness of those who could have helped to avoid this waste of talent.

Feudalism, capitalism and beyond »

Publication date: 1975
Capitalism has changed the face of the world. It has proved itself to be the mightiest and in some ways the most complex social formation of all time. Yet it is a historical formation too, arising at a particular period of history in one particular continent, doomed, in turn, as many would argue, to change itself beyond recognition or to be swept away before the rising tide of social revolution and social change. In the lectures collected here, historians, social philosophers and a lawyer probe deeply into the origins, development and future of the ideology of capitalism and combine to present highlights of its progress and its decline. Their views will be of vital interest to students of history, economics, politics and law and to all those who seek to understand the contemporary world.

Revolutionaries and reformists: communism and the Australian labour movement 1920-1955 »

Publication date: 1975
Communism has played a central part in Australian political nightmares for over half a century. Yet it has received scant serious attention comparable in scope and perspective with this work. This book places the Communist Party of Australia firmly in its political context, national and international, from the 1920s to the mid-1950s. It is important in its insights into the general history of Australian radicalism; its contribution to Australian history, especially labour history; and its placing of radical Australian history in a world context. It is written from the perspective of one who joined the Communist Party of Australia because it seemed the only party 'committed to the struggle for socialism and against fascism' and who left it because this 'no longer seemed the case'. Its breadth, perceptiveness, and understanding commend it to all people concerned with the continuing political struggles of the Right, the Left, and the Centre.

Australian voices: poetry and prose of the 1970s »

Publication date: 1975
In choosing the poems, stories, and essays in this volume, its editor, Australian poet Rosemary Dobson, has sought works that reflect the ideas and ideals challenging the imagination of contemporary Australian writers. Her authors look to the past, finding there material relevant to today or recreating a nostalgic time gone by. They look also to the present, at the perplexities of modern life. The poets, both those of established reputation and those of fresh young talent, look to the local or the international scene, both time past and time present. In their works gathered together here are the authentic voices of Australian writers, voices that are serious and sad, bitter, ironic and funny, wry, gay and irreverent - voices for all seasons.

Deaths and pretty cousins »

Publication date: 1975
David Campbell has served a long, serious apprenticeship in the craft and art of poetry. Now, in each new collection, structure is totally harmonised with content and each poem seems to spring effortlessly from the page, as astonishing and inevitable as the natural world where the poet moves with such ease; the senses transmitting colour, movement, shape and sound to the mind, and the mind transmuting these into the word. In many of the poems in Deaths and Pretty Cousins Campbell still draws upon this rural region which was the source of his first published poetry, and of which he has said, 'Sometimes I had the feeling that I was living and riding round in a world of my own creation'. The binding threads are as strong as ever but now he moves further and further afield in his explorations - of history, of paintings, of people: of other cultures, other times, other lives. To the reader of poetry the slow attainment of a poet's maturity is as exciting to watch as the emergence of a new talent. It is of necessity a slow process since all artists must first acquire and then discard: The gull turns on the wind and its brief shadow Falls cleanly through the wave On rippled sand. In stone its flight is stayed, A moment weathering to eternity. Campbell's brief poems on sandstone rock carvings provide a splendid example of this process. Mastery without loss of energy, knowledge without diminishment of inquiry, diversity of expression and singleness of purpose - all these combine in the work of the mature creative artist. A phrase describing the work of a poet who died nearly two thousand years ago seems equally true when applied to the work of David Campbell: 'the scales tremble, but the poet's hand is steady; it is the exciting equilibrium of mature art.' - R.D.

The Indianized states of Southeast Asia »

Publication date: 1975
In his editor{u2019}s note, Walter Vella states that this classic text "has been universally acclaimed and - the surest proof of its impact - heavily relied on by all later scholars. ... [It] remains the basic text for those who seek to understand Southeast Asia - not only its ancient past, but also its immediate present - for the Southeast Asia of today cannot be understood without a knowledge of the traditional values and institutions, which remain vital, and which present leaders seem increasingly to esteem as a guide to the future." Recognized as the unchallenged dean of Southeast Asian classical scholarship, George Coed{u00E8}s wrote for both specialists and the general public. From a lifetime of study of Chinese, Arabian, and European chronicles, and from deciphering ancient annals and inscriptions, Coed{u00E8}s has traced the story of India{u2019}s expansion that is woven into the culture of Southeast Asia. It was Coed{u00E8}s who revealed the existence and importance of the ancient state of Srivijaya in southern Sumatra, and insight into classical Khmer civilization rests upon his epigraphic research in Cambodia. In this volume are the synthesized results of these and other studies, culminating sixty years of research.

Look forward, not back: aborigines in metropolitan Brisbane, 1965-1966 »

Publication date: 1975
Aborigines who come to Brisbane from settlements and small country towns face all the problems of rapid urbanisation - housing, employment, education, morale. They have had some previous experience of white Australian society, but little of the social institutions that white Australians take for granted. In Brisbane, these social institutions and their agencies are available, yet Aborigines do not take advantage of them, partly because of their past lack of experience and partly because they do not always see such institutions as compatible with their life styles. The authors of this book believe that Aborigines can and will determine their own futures. They argue that white Australia must encourage the Aborigines to use existing social institutions and, if these are unsuitable, create new ones that will help Aboriginal Australians to a satisfying life. In redressing thus the neglect and indifference of the past, Australia might approach a multi-racial society rich in diversity.

Greeks in Australia »

Publication date: 1975
The second largest migrant group in Australia is made up of some 300,000 people who regard themselves as Greek. Not all were born in Greece - some come from ancient Greek communities in Russia, Africa and the Middle East, some were born in Australia. What they have in common is their feeling of Greekness, their loyalty to their origins, their deep concern with family ties and values. They resist marriage with non-Greeks, adhere to the Greek Orthodox religion and stubbornly preserve the Greek language and culture. This book provides an introduction to the nature and purpose of Greek societies and organisations, and explains how Greeks relate to other Greeks in Australia and to Australian people and institutions. In identifying areas where Greeks have succeeded or failed in Australia, it also shows where Australia has succeeded and failed in its dealings with them and with other migrant groups.
