When a state seeks to deport non-citizens, who are its citizens? Determining membership in the twenty-first century
Oral history as an analytical tool
This article adds to a growing body of literature that aims to correct the traditional lack of attention to the role of women lawyers who have exercised their power as active citizens by participating in legal reform and facilitating access to social justice for all Australians. The paper highlights the unique contribution to gender equality of one such woman, Eve Mahlab AO, through a close examination of her oral history, which was drawn from th…
The Cambridge Companion to Gender and the Law
To what extent is the legal subject gendered? Using illustrative examples from a range of jurisdictions and thematically organised chapters, this volume offers a comprehensive consideration of this question. With a systematic, accessible approach, it argues that law and gender work to co-produce the legal subject. Cumulatively, the volume's chapters provide a systematic evaluation of the key facets of the legal subject: the corporeal, the functio…
Women in the Legal Profession
Much has been said and written about the need for cultural change in professional workplaces, so that environments that encourage equality, respect, and inclusion for all participants may be created. In this context, the legal profession in Australia, after a long overdue review, has been characterized as a “man's world” badly in need of cultural change. Calls for cultural change, however, beg many questions, including: What is the culture that n…
The challenge of ‘Covid-19 free’ Australia
This paper uses Australia as a case study to analyse restrictions on international movement during the COVID-19 pandemic. Restrictions on inbound and outbound travel have been a key tool deployed by governments across the globe to suppress the COVID-19 pandemic. We use ‘COVID zero’ Australia as a case study to assess an extreme response to restricting international movement. We look at the recent complaint launched before the United Nations Human…

In representative democracy, diversity is considered to be a key element for true representation of the society. In addition, previous research has unequivocally demonstrated the positive impacts of gender equality in leadership. The COVID-19 pandemic has laid b…

Her message was that ‘when words gather together with energy, others p…

Allegiance and Identity in a Globalised World
Interrogating the concepts of allegiance and identity in a globalised world involves renewing our understanding of membership and participation within and beyond the nation-state. Allegiance can be used to define a singular national identity and common connection to a nation-state. In a global context, however, we need more dynamic conceptions to understand the importance of maintaining diversity and building allegiance with others outside border…
