Chronic homelessness - what women’s experiences can tell us
This article reassesses the policy concept of chronic homelessness in the light of women’s experiences of long-term homelessness. Chronic homelessness, associated with long-term homelessness and high levels of emergency and homelessness service use among men, has received increased focus in research, policy and services in recent years, and despite women’s comparative housing disadvantages, the overwhelming majority of people identified as experi…
Building the Evidence for Family Violence Policy Reform: The Work of Specialist Women’s Refuges in Victoria, Australia
While specialist women’s refuges have been central to responses to family violence since the 1970s, their work is under-researched. Little is known outside the family violence sector about the support they provide and how it assists women and children. There have been some critiques of their work but there is limited knowledge of the constraints women’s refuges face. Based on interviews and focus groups with 100 professional stakeholders and twen…
Women’s Refuges and Critical Social Work: Opportunities and Challenges in Advancing Social Justice
Women’s refuges play a crucial role in responding to the needs of women and children experiencing family violence; yet there has been limited research conducted into their operations, practices and challenges faced. This article is informed by critical social work’s theoretical tradition of seeking to end social injustice and analyses key opportunities and challenges of providing refuge amidst a neo-liberal context. We draw on interviews and focu…
Governing Homelessness: The Discursive and Institutional Construction of Homelessness in Australia
This paper analyses changes in the conceptualization of “homelessness” in Australian policies, programmes and services from the 1970s to 2006. Research and commentary confirm a shift away from an understanding of homelessness in terms of “structural”, social and economic factors to an understanding in terms of “individual” issues. Research reflects this dichotomy, but attempts to reconcile the two explanations have failed in practice. Using Fouca…
Is Housing First for M ental H ealth C ommunity Support Possible During a Housing Shortage
Supported housing programmes for people with chronic mental health needs have shifted towards approaches that rely on housing first, which prioritizes access to a permanent home in the community. How do support programmes with this assumption manage the market constraints of a shortage of affordable housing? The article examines empirical mixed method data (interviews and programme data) about the experience of managing this problem in the M enta…

Sustaining transitions from welfare to work: The perceptions of employers and employment service providers
Successive Australian Governments have sought to improve the capacity of the employment service system to build jobseekers' skills and capabilities and to promote transitions from income support to paid work. Yet despite these efforts, many jobseekers experience only short periods of employment, moving repeatedly between joblessness and positions with low skill requirements, low pay and few or fluctuating hours. This article explores ways to achi…

The myth of the Renaissance in nineteenth-century writing
Few people who use the word 'Renaissance' today realize that it is a comparatively recent historical idea, or that it is a 'myth' or story constructed by writers to explain the past. In this innovative and wide-ranging study, J.B. Bullen traces the genesis of that myth back to the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The seeds of the idea are to be found in Voltaire, but Dr Bullen shows how it was taken up by French art historians and Gothic…
The Renaissance among the French Romantics
In its early phases, the Renaissance was intimately dependent on the discovery of the Middle Ages. An understanding of what constituted the ‘medieval’ was crucial to the emergence of the Renaissance. The Gothic Revival fuelled the study of European medievalism and it was in the studies of medieval architecture that the myth of the Renaissance began to take shape. This process began in France, and particularly amongst the French Romantic writers f…
