Basic Income in Australia and New Zealand
Basic income is an innovative, powerful egalitarian response to widening global inequalities and poverty experiences in society, one that runs counter to the neoliberal transformations of modern welfa

Cultural Analysis
Beyond connection
In his media ethics, Roger Silverstone was particularly sceptical of the idea that increasing mediaconnectedness in itself is set to improve our overall moral condition or to foster a cosmopolitan cultural outlook. In arguing that we need to go ‘beyond connection’, he raised the broader issue of the cultural condition that an intensely connected environment is establishing, and posed questions of the kinds of relatedness, the sense of belonging, …
Globalization and Culture
In this lecture I want to think about the relationship between the globalization process and that complex human condition we call ‘culture’. But first I need to say very briefly what I understand by globalization. Globalization is a complex process because it involves

Proximity Politics
'Proximity politics' refers to a certain set of new political–cultural problems and issues that the globalization process confronts us with. Specifically it refers to the sort of engagements globalization entails as it draws us all closer together: both 'structurally', via the complex institutional interconnections of globalization, and 'phenomenologically' via the sort of experienced proximity that is provided in time-space bridging technologies…
Educated for the 21st century
Using cameos of children whose schooling spans the millennium and of teachers' attempts to foster their individuality and talents under pressures for conformity, we question whether the long‐term educational interests of pupils are being fully served. We suggest that even for the secure and stable majority the school curriculum has serious shortcomings in limiting the freedom and creativity of teachers and in prioritising technicist over humane v…

The education of 16‐19 year‐olds and the interaction of local and national policy 1970‐95
Sous les auspices de la formation continue (further education), les tertiary colleges, etablissements postsecondaires ouverts a tous apres 16 ans, voient le jour dans les annees 1970 en Angleterre. Les responsabilites financieres des differentes institutions locales et nationales ne sont pas evidentes et ce d'autant que cette nouvelle structure se surimpose a celles preexistentes, l'enquete historique faite a West Glamorgan en est l'illustration
Values
Against the background of public concern over the moral education of the young, the contemporary constructions imposed upon schools by politicians, the intellectual forces arising from post-modernism and the pressures of a pluralistic society are examined. The deep structures and slow-growing processes which can cultivate a sense of moral values in a human community are related to how some schools have successfully achieved a moral community, in …

A Phenomenology of Globalization? Giddens on Global Modernity
Anthony Giddens's account of social modernity gives prominence to the process of globalization. This article examines one specific aspect of Giddens's discussion of global modernity: his claim that `although everyone lives a local life, phenomenal worlds for the most part are truly global'. This idea is explored in three directions: in the context of Giddens's general theory of time-space distanciation; in relation to his discussion of the mediat…

The Role of Ideology in Community Work
Mainstream Australian community work has consistently attempted to present itself as an ideologically neutral professional discipline. In this paper we point to the inherent conservative nature of non‐ideological practice and suggest that through adopting leftist and feminist ideologies the people we service are advantaged
The Importance of Being Worthy
Australians consider we have a modern comprehensive welfare service, one in which charity, worthiness, and do‐gooderism are anachronisms found only in isolated welfare agencies run by obscure sects. This is not so. They remain a central feature of welfare practice at both governmental and private levels. Our modern agencies prefer not to tell people they are unworthy but social workers can everywhere be heard saying ‘I'm sorry, but you are not el…
Land Rights or Death
The effect of the refusal to cede Aborigines title to land and the importance of land rights to Aborigines are considered. An examination is made of the past and the continuing alienation of Aborigines' land. Violence is placed in perspective. Suggestions are made as how the granting of land rights will need to be supplemented if the crisis confronting both white and black Australians is to be faced

The Changing Government of Local Education
The Education Reform Bill ‐ 44 years of progress
The Education Reform Bill is contrasted with the 1944 Education Act, especially in regard to the schools sector and the responsibilities of local education authorities (LEAs). The 1944 Act is seen as part of the formation of a Welfare State after the devastation and social upheaval of the war, in which educational opportunity and notions of a just society were guiding principles. The 1988 bill is seen as based on the spirit of consumerism, indivi…

How do we value our children today? as reflected by children's health, health care and policy
The importance of children in their own right and of their healthy development for the health of society, have been affirmed at an international level by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989 and by the Children Act 1989 in the United Kingdom. In the UK fifteen years ago, the report of the Court Committee set out a framework for Child Health Services based on the same recognition of the value of children. This paper des…

Education
1963‐93 is a paradoxical period for British education. The drama of change was clear to see and vivid to experience. The opening years of high optimism and expansion were followed in the seventies by questioning and concern which led in the eighties to an unprecedented application of national control. But whether children and young people are getting a better deal in 1993 than in 1963 remains an open question

The Importance of Children in Social Policy‐danger signals from a greying society
THEME: Britain is an example of a developed country which is in danger of doing less for children and families as a result of the recent economic and social policies. In this article I echo and reinforce the address the World Council President has just given, which encouraged us towards self‐criticism, coherence and action
