Indigenous workplace policies
Indigenous employment is a critical policy area in Australia, with businesses adopting targeted workplace and recruitment practices to increase their levels of Indigenous employment. However, non-Indigenous-owned Australian businesses are still struggling to meet their Indigenous employment targets, and the national gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous employment rates remains wide. Despite the increased popularity of Indigenous-specific wor…

It's Self‐Determination . Blackfullas Making Right Decisions for Blackfullas”
Previous research demonstrates that businesses that are Indigenous‐owned are far more likely to employ Indigenous people than non‐Indigenous‐owned businesses (Hunter, 2015). The majority of the literature on Indigenous employment uses a deficit discourse, describing factors that prevent or exclude Indigenous people from non‐Indigenous‐owned organisations. There is markedly less literature using a strength‐based approach, detailing how Indigenous‐…

Expectations, economics, and externalities of the Indigenous business sector
The Indigenous business sector in Australia is a facilitator of Indigenous economic self-determination, community development, the utilisation of Indigenous knowledge, and the creation of enhanced employment opportunities for Indigenous people.Social impact initiatives and social entrepreneurship are a hallmark of many Indigenous businesses.Supply Nation (2018) found that for every dollar of revenue, Supply Nation Certified Businesses created an …
The importance of understanding Indigenous employment in the Indigenous business sector
Indigenous employment has been the subject of numerous policies in Australia, with governments aiming to increase the workforce participation rate amongst Indigenous people in recent years. Indigenous‐owned businesses, formally defined as businesses that are at least 50% Indigenous‐owned, have been demonstrated in previous research to maintain substantially higher levels of proportional Indigenous employment than non‐Indigenous businesses. This s…
Entrepreneurship and self-employment among Indigenous people
Despite being one of the least examined areas of minority entrepreneurship, as well as the vast unrepresentation of Indigenous populations in the Australian entrepreneurship landscape, contemporary Indigenous entrepreneurship is improving and its resurgence in development and substance can help highlight not only opportunities, but barriers to Indigenous entrepreneurs such as chronic lack of economic and human capital, cultural and social constra…
From traditional carving to plastic Tiki
Māori engagement with the tourism industry, from the nineteenth century to the present, has developed on face value into a ‘cultural Disneyland’ at Rotorua, where tourists partake in ‘native’ feasts while gazing at dancers twirling in unison on a timetable governed by bus schedules. Geysers likewise respond to tourist numbers and clicking camera shutters. While some condemn these experiences as inauthentic, others assert that they are based on th…
Can We Educate and Train Aboriginal Leaders with our Tertiary Education Systems
The concept of Aboriginal leadership often results in debate. The fundamental question raised is if Australian Aboriginal people are equal members of a pluralistic society that is based on co-operation and consensuses then how can you have a leader? Consequently who determines leadership or is a leader someone that in effect is more equal than others? Is leadership an attribute gained from within Aboriginal society or is leadership as we currentl…
The Rise of Class Culture Theory in Educational Anthropology
This article chronicles how the ideas of neo-Weberians, Marxists, feminists, and critical race thinkers have merged to create a new cultural production or class culture paradigm of schooling. Reviews of recent ethnographic work illustrates how the articulations among class, race, gender, and sexual identity practices in schools are studied without privileging one standpoint over another. This paradigm shift signals the demise of earlier cultural …

The social effects of native title
Native title has had a profound social impact in Australia. Its effects have been felt from the local level through to the national level ever since the success of the Mabo No.2 case in the Federal Court. But despite the involvement of large numbers of anthropologists in the field of native title practice (alongside lawyers, historians, archaeologists and others trained in the social sciences and humanities) there has been surprisingly little ref…

Elusive prey
John Ogbu’s work on ‘minority education’ has spawned a number of interesting and useful debates in the US. Having been both an early admirer and critic of Ogbu’s work, I reviewed his work in an Anthropology and Education Quarterly article . The present article reflects upon Ogbu’s work and upon my scholarly engagement with that corpus over the years. I discuss Ogbu’s Shaker Heights study , and offer some reasons why Ogbu is often misread as a def…

This article chronicles the cultural, political, and economic impact of casino gaming on the Mesquaki settlement. It is based on extensive interviews with tribal members conducted 9 years after the original fieldwork for the ethnography The Heartland Chronicles. The article highlights a breakdown in the Mesquaki political system that resulted in a factional split that closed the casino. Tribal elders fear that the casino has created rampant mater…

Where to Now? Cultural Liberation or Continued Subjugation
Since the 1970s considerable human effort and fiscal resources have been expended on improving the provision of education for Australian Indigenous peoples. The success or failure of such efforts and resources allocations is not clear and requires research. What is clear is that there has been an impact on the educational outcomes of Australian Indigenous peoples duringthis time. Indeed, there have been enormous advances in some areas and minor i…
