Reading Chinese Australian enterprise through insolvency and bankruptcy files, 1857–1926
Historical scholarship on Chinese diasporic enterprise has largely rejected culturalist paradigms in favour of structuralist ones, but the question of culture remains contentious. It has also been addressed primarily via case studies of Southeast Asia’s largest and most prominent Chinese firms. Through examining the collection of 101 Chinese insolvency and bankruptcy files created in Sydney between 1857 and 1926, this paper presents an unseen vie…
Marketing the Multinational in Shenbao , Shanghai, 1872–1889
Foreign multinational enterprises (MNEs) operating in China, especially during the nineteenth century, have attracted less interest from historians than Chinese firms and expatriate merchant houses. However, in this period, MNEs shaped advertising in Shenbao , China’s most vital modern Chinese-language newspaper. Through our examination of the advertisements they placed during the newspaper’s first phase of publication, 1872–1889, we argue that M…
The post-indenture of Chi, New South Wales, Australia, 1857–1908
Post-indenture has largely been neglected in historical examinations of Chinese indentured labour in colonial contexts. We know little about what happened to workers after their contracts expired. Through the life of one Chinese man, Chi, and his small farming community in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Illawarra, New South Wales, Australia, I consider this issue. Drawing chiefly on church and other records usually used for research…
Made in Chinatown
This thesis explores Chinese furniture factories operating in Australia over the period from 1880 to 1930, concentrating on Sydney and Melbourne. Established in the wake of the Australian gold rushes of the 1850s and 1860s by migrants from the Pearl River Delta of Guangdong and their descendants, these factories became an integral part of Australia’s furniture industry. Owing to a vision of Australia as a bastion of ‘white’ industry and labour, C…
Variation of DNA Methylation in Newborns Associated with Exhaled Carbon Monoxide during Pregnancy
Fetal exposure to tobacco smoke is an adverse risk factor for newborns. A plausible mechanism of how this exposure may negatively impact long term health is differential methylation of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNAm) and its relation to birth weight. We examined whether self-reported gestational smoking status and maternal exhaled carbon monoxide (eCO) during early pregnancy were associated with methylation of cytosine by guanines (CpG) sites that t…
The Market Gardens of Dark Dragon Ridge, New South Wales, Australia, 1876–1930
Long neglected within Eurocentric histories of Australian agriculture, a clearer view of Chinese market gardening in Australia has been emerging over recent decades. As a contribution to this ongoing work, this paper explores Chinese market gardens in Wollongong (known as Dark Dragon Ridge in Chinese), 70 km south of Sydney, between 1876 and 1930. Using a microhistorical framework with an emphasis on business and labour, and guided chiefly by gar…

Australia's Bankrupt Chinese Furniture Manufacturers, 1880–1930
The proprietors of almost 100 Chinese furniture factories in Australia went bankrupt during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. With a substantial stake in furniture production for decades following the gold rushes of the 1850s and 1860s, Chinese furniture factory operators were vilified and legislated against in a push for ‘White‐Australian’ industrial advancement. Historians have consistently concentrated on such campaigns when e…
Lifestyle Risk Factors for Weight Gain in Children with and without Asthma
A higher proportion of children with asthma are overweight and obese compared to children without asthma; however, it is unknown whether asthmatic children are at increased risk of weight gain due to modifiable lifestyle factors. Thus, the aim of this cross-sectional study was to compare weight-gain risk factors (sleep, appetite, diet, activity) in an opportunistic sample of children with and without asthma. Non-obese children with ( n = 17; age …
Voices of Sydney's Chinese Furniture Factory Workers, 1890-1920
Chinese furniture factory workers were the focus of a heated debate that helped shape "White Australia." Often considered a threat to the "European," or "white," working class, they were vigorously campaigned against by labour activists and staunchly defended by Chinese merchant elites, the outcome of this contest being the institution of a range of anti-Chinese legislation from the 1880s. While labour activists' claims about Chinese furniture fa…

Multi-disciplinary assessment for residential accommodation
This paper examines an example of multi-disciplinary assessment for residential accommodation (Part III) carried out in the Day Hospital of a district general hospital Geriatric Medical Unit. It is a positive example of co-operation between social services and medical, nursing and para-medical staff. Multi-disciplinary assessment was found to be of benefit to both medical and social services' staff. A number of applicants were found to have previ…
