Octavo, paperback,374 pp.,colour photographs. If humanity survives, Stan Breeden's memoir is destined to be a natural classic. For eight decades he has been a peerless observer and chronicler of Earthâs wilds and wildlife. In this book are some of the most poignant accounts of the human affinity with nature that have ever flowed… from pen to paper. No one has written it up with finer or easier words to read than these. In his search for meaning our human soul is pivotal. Beyond the reach of deductive science (brain) are feelings (soul) like those experienced lying beneath the giant eucalypts in Tasmaniaâs Styx forest, or at Uluá u, âoverpowering in its size, its sheerness, its isolation, its beauty and its silent mystery - a quality never captured in photographs or film.â âScience denies our soul. Art, too busy being provocative, devalues our feelings. The result is a relentless widening of the chasm between people and nature, exacerbating the creeping malaise of the Nature Deficit Disorder.â When young Breeden gave up on university, he had âwanted to feel nature with all my senses, but also with my very being, my soulâ. Later, in the dunes of Cooloola, then threatened by sand mining but now protected, he reckoned that âif we could just show people the splendorous and seemingly miraculous workings of the natural world, it would become so obvious that nature needed protecting that there would be no need for conflictâ. It was a time when we held high hopes that humankind would turn green. How wrong our expectations were. Yet Breeden has persisted as one of the worldâs finest presenters of the splendours of nature right through to this new epoch of defiant environmental activism. His presentations through National Geographic, his marvellous books on nature, and his role in establishing Queenslandâs Wildlife Preservation Society, speak for themselves. The humble Stan Breeden wants a new Shakespeare to âfind words - full of drama and imagination - that make nature come alive in our minds.â We need only read this book.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What is wrong with democracy as we know it Too many decisions are the result of political deals based on the power strategies and tactics of politicians, not on the merits of the case. The voters can only accept or reject the packages the parties offer them.The Demarchy Manifesto exploits the… possibilities of modern communications to give a new role and focus to public discussion. It proposes taking the formulation of public policy out of the hands of political parties and putting it into the hands of those most strongly affected by particular issues. The aim is to tell the politicians what we want, after serious and focused, open discussion. Burnheim explains why this needs to be done and how it can be achieved through voluntary means without constitutional change.'John Burnheim's Demarchy Manifesto isn't just an insightful and deeply pragmatic inquiry into the legitimacy and effectiveness of contemporary representative democracy but also a handbook for citizens looking for a meaningful way to bring new energy and much needed relevance to the way we determine public policy. He puts skin on the bones of what it means to find the public good by arguing for a community-based transfer of policy-making from political parties to deliberative councils, representative of those most directly affected in the case at hand.'Geoff Gallop, former Premier of Western Australia.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Despite their very different histories, Australia and France share the typical postcolonial experience of unresolved conflicts. The persistent residues of colonial violence manifest in contemporary outbreaks of violence in Indigenous Australian communities and in communities in France with a…large number of immigrants and their descendants from former colonies. In both countries structural limitations and policy failures of the welfare state have become sources of discontent and suffering, leading to interactions between marginalised groups and the state that are punctuated by instances of violent contestation.Violence in France and Australia: Disorder in the Postcolonial Welfare State examines the racial and ethnic dimensions of forms of marginality and the relationships between the welfare state and the postcolonial background to contemporary violence. The essays draw upon field research and innovations in the social theory extending the collection's comparative format and providing novel insights into the configurations of the postcolonial and the welfare state.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The adoption of White Australia as government policy in 1901 demonstrates that whiteness was crucial to the ways in which the new nation of Australia was constituted. And yet, historians have largely overlooked whiteness in their studies of Australia's racial past. Creating White Australia ta…kes a fresh approach to the question of 'race' in Australian history. It demonstrates that Australia's racial foundations can only be understood by recognising whiteness too as 'race'. Including contributions from some of the leading as well as emerging scholars in Australian history, it breaks new ground by arguing that 'whiteness' was central to the racial ideologies that created the Australian nation.This book pursues the foundations of white Australia across diverse locales. It also situates the development of Australian whiteness within broader imperial and global influences. As the recent apology to the Stolen Generations, the Northern Territory Intervention and controversies over asylum seekers reveal, the legacies of these histories are still very much with us today.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Reading Across the Pacific is a study of literary and cultural engagement between the United States and Australia from a contemporary interdisciplinary perspective. The book examines the relations of the two countries, shifting the emphasis from the broad cultural patterns that are often comp…ared, to the specific networks, interactions, and crossings that have characterised Australian literature in the United States and American literature in Australia.In the 21st century, both American and Australian literatures are experiencing new challenges to the very different paradigms of literary history and criticism each inherited from the 20th century. In response to these challenges, scholars of both literatures are seizing the opportunity to reassess and reconfigure the conceptual geography of national literary spaces as they are reformed by vectors that evade or exceed them, including the transnational, the local and the global. The essays in Reading Across the Pacific are divided into five sections: 'National literatures and transnationalism', 'Poetry and poetics', 'Literature and popular culture', 'The Cold War', and 'Publishing history and transpacific print cultures'.
