Australia’s multi‐provider social housing system: Contest or growth?
Short term rental accommodation: Models, impacts and policy responses
Value switching: Extracting profit from the city
Land and property, and the wealth extracted from it, has reappeared as a central concern in understanding the process of urbanisation under capitalism. Much of the academic discussion centres on the re-emergence of ‘rentier capitalism’ drawing on 19th-century concepts of land economics. However, the accumulation of wealth through property ownership and the development process points towards a value proposition contained in the land question that …
Mapping the frontiers of private property in New South Wales, Australia
This article addresses the process and patterns by which private property has been applied on the Australian continent. Alongside both lease-holdings that are limited by term or perpetual and squatting practices, identifying and documenting private property in both individual cases and in aggregate over a large geography offers a compelling approximation of the appearance and spread of British-Australian settlement. Plots and patterns of private …
Social housing as infrastructure and the role of mission driven financing
Australia, like many other housing systems in Western Europe and the US, increasingly relies on private financing arrangements for social housing. It is spending more than ever before on demand side assistance, yet both the production of dedicated social housing and housing affordability are declining. From the perspective of needs-based social infrastructure, this paper presents the outcomes of research into the development of a more productive …
Chinese property developers after the decline in foreign real estate investment in Sydney, Australia
This study investigates how Chinese developers responded to the changing patterns of investment in residential real estate in Sydney since 2010. The analysis also outlines the key lessons for cities around the world with high levels of Chinese foreign buyers and developers, which may experience a similar foreign real estate investment decline as a result of changing dynamics in domestic real estate markets, changes in China, and/or wider changes …
Understanding the lived experience and benefits of regional cities
This research investigates the lived experience of regional city residents (in five case studies) to understand how the benefits and disadvantages of regional city life are perceived and explore attitudes towards population growth.
Planning for Lower-Income Households in Privately Developed High-Density Neighbourhoods in Sydney, Australia
In Australia, as in many other countries, private high-density housing is typically marketed as the domain of middle- and higher-income residents. But, in practice, it accommodates many lower-income households. These households often live in mixed-income communities alongside wealthier neighbours, but, because of constrained budgets, they rely more heavily on access to community services and facilities. This has implications for public infrastruc…

Decoupling Growth from Growth-dependent Planning Paradigms: Contesting Prevailing Urban Renewal Futures in Sydney, Australia
With the population of Sydney expected to reach 7 million+ in the next 20 years, current strategic planning policy is firmly growth oriented in its aims, and growth dependent in its settings, with a key focus on promoting higher density redevelopment around rail stations through value uplift. Using the Sydenham-to-Bankstown Corridor as our case study, this paper engages with the contradictions underpinning current templates for market-driven urba…
Vertical Sprawl in the Australian City: Sydney’s High-rise Residential Development Boom
This paper examines the spatial implications of Sydney’s vertical expansion over the past decade. Enabled by a partnership between market forces and strategic planning policy, the data indicate that the city’s high-density development boom has been primarily shaped by economic viability concerns, driving a spatial policy shift to better align better with market forces. The paper concludes that in the absence of more comprehensive housing and urba…

The politics of urban renewal in Sydney’s residential apartment market
Australia has long had a deeply speculative housing property market. Arguably this has been accentuated in recent years as successive governments have privileged private-sector investment in housing property as the key mechanism for delivering housing and a concurrent winding back of direct government support for housing. This has occurred through a period in which urban renewal and flexible planning regulation have become the key focus of urban …
It depends what you mean by the term rights’: Strata termination and housing rights
Strata title was introduced in Australia over 50 years ago and offered a legal mechanism for space to be vertically subdivided and traded. Importantly, it allowed individualised property rights to be applied to multi-unit housing. In New South Wales, recent changes to the Strata Scheme Development Act allow termination of strata schemes with less than unanimous support of owners. A central feature of the discussion surrounding the implementation …

(Re)Producing Nature in Pyrmont and Ultimo
Urban political ecology (UPE), as articulated by Heynen et al., is premised on the refusal to ontologically separate nature and society. The urban becomes representative of an unbounded process of 'urbanisation', a complex interplay between ecological, political, and economic processes that produce historically and geographically contingent outcomes. Importantly, it advances a historical conception of nature, and problems in and of nature, that n…
Featured Graphic. A Community-Led Critique of Accessibility of Sydney's Public Transportation Network
The shift from auto-dependent modes of urban transportation has been a key focus of the sustainability literature for over two decades (Low, 2013; Mees, 2010). This literature argues that mobility in cities ought to be addressed through public transportation rather than individualised forms of transport as a pathway to low carbon economies. However, pathways to achieve such a city remain highly contentious. Many authors suggest that citizen actio…

The Tale of Sinuhe and Other Ancient Egyptian Poems, 1940-1640 B. C
Middle Kingdom (c.1940-1640 BC) was the golden age of Egyptian fictional literature. The Tale of Sinuhe, acclaimed as the masterpiece of Egyptian poetry, tells of a courtier's adventures after he flees Egypt, his failure to find a meaningful life abroad, and his eventual return to the security of his homeland. Other works include stories of fantastic wonders from the court of the builder of the Great Pyramid, a lyrical dialogue between a man and …

Patterns of Queenship in Ancient Egyptian Myth and History
Queens, Goddesses and Other Women of Ancient Egypt
The two works reviewed here are important contributions to the study of women in ancient Egypt and the Near East, a growing field that is the source of significant new syntheses and fresh perspectives. Ward's Essays present more of the conscientious, painstaking work that characterized his Index of Egyptian Administrative and Religious Titles of the Middle Kingdom, making inter alia the strongest case yet against the existence of harems in that p…
Egyptology
During the period 1986-1990 a number of conferences were related to the subject of Egyptology, and covering the areas of linguistics, Nubiology, religion and computer technology. All of these conferences are represented in the publication of papers. Both popular and scientific descriptions of monuments and artefacts are found in the bibliography from these years as well as, studies related to the contact between Egypt and the Mediterranean and a …
