Disability and innovation in virtual production
two test shoots that developed and implemented accessible VP working practices, addressing the access requirements of DDN cast and crew. These productions were conducted through cycles of co-developed participatory action research, as part of an industry-academia R&D collaboration, in which accessibility interventions were planned, implemented, observed, and reflected on collaboratively. Drawing on a case study, the paper proposes an emergent Inc…
Attenuated, transformed and re‐inscribed sacra
This paper identifies the probable features of contemporary traditional land tenure in the Northern Territory. The fragility of the intergenerational transmission of detailed knowledge of traditional country in current circumstances leads to a hollowing out of the previous concomitants of dreaming sites (stories, songs, rituals, designs). Concurrently, traditional ideas of the spirits of the Old People and associated rituals of announcement and i…
Introduction to ‘Anthropology and change over the land rights era’
This collection of papers arose from a conversation among several of us contributors with long-term experience of working as anthropologists in land and native title claims. We felt that we and others with such involvement had written relatively little about our observations at this intersection of anthropology and law, but that we all had a sense of issues and changes throughout the ‘land rights era’. By that we mean the last 50 years since the …

From Dreaming Ancestors to Human Ancestors? Post-Classical Indigenous Beliefs about Human Ancestral Spirits and Human Ancestral Remains
This paper reports on the remarkable resonances of 'classical' beliefs about Dreaming beings in 'post-classical' beliefs about the spirits of the human ancestors and the remains of human ancestors. It provides an account of such 'post-classical' beliefs derived from native title claim research in various jurisdictions, involving groups with relatively long and disruptive contact histories. Three kinds of contemporary beliefs and their context are…
An Australian Indigenous Diaspora
Some indigenous people, while remaining attached to their traditional homelands, leave them to make a new life for themselves in white towns and cities, thus constituting an "indigenous diaspora". This innovative book is the first ethnographic account of one such indigenous diaspora, the Warlpiri, whose traditional hunter-gatherer life has been transformed through their dispossession and involvement with ranchers, missionaries, and successive gov…
Global Jihadist Terrorism
This insightful book provides a unified repository of information on jihadist terrorism. Offering an integrated treatment of terrorist groups, zones of armed conflict and counter-terrorism responses from liberal democratic states, it presents fresh empirical perspectives on the origins and progression of conflict, and contemporary global measures to combat terrorist activity.

Rupture and Readjustment of Tradition
For nearly four decades, Ian Keen has been an important, challenging, and engaging presence in Australian anthropology. Beginning with his PhD research in the mid-1970s and through to the present, he has been a leading scholar of Yolngu society and culture, and has made lasting contributions to a range of debates. His scholarly productivity, however, has never been limited to the Yolngu, and he has conducted research and published widely on many …
Teachers Choosing Rich Tasks
This article reports on the pioneering use in education of Discrete Choice Experiments (DCEs) to assess teachers’ decisions regarding deployment of rich tasks. The incorporation of this quantitative method into what is usually considered the domain of qualitative researchers is an innovative feature of this study. The DCEs enabled rigorous, reliable, and efficient investigation of the relationships between attributes of the complex environment in…
Teacher Retention and Attrition
The provision and maintenance of quality teachers is a matter of priority for the profession. Moreover, teacher attrition is costly to the profession, to the community and to those teachers who leave feeling disillusioned. There is a need to investigate the experiences of early career teachers to consider how these issues contribute to decisions about staying in or leaving the profession. This paper reports on an aspect of a larger study on teach…
Indigenous Diaspora and the Prospects for Cosmopolitan 'Orbiting
This paper introduces one of the first attempts in anthropology to apply the notion of diaspora to Fourth World circumstances-namely, the Warlpiri of central Australia, many of whom have permanently migrated to towns and cities, but retain strong connections to their home settlements. Coincidently, the research project on the Warlpiri diaspora (2009-12) overlapped with an intensified public policy debate about the decline in social conditions on …

Law's Anthropology
Anthropologists have been appearing as key expert witnesses in native title claims for over 20 years. Until now, however, there has been no theoretically-informed, detailed investigation of how the expert testimony of anthropologists is formed and how it is received by judges. This book examines the structure and habitus of both the field of anthropology and the juridical
