Europe and the Transformation of the Irish Economy
Having stagnated for decades in the shadow of the UK, the Irish economy's performance improved after it joined the European Union (EEC) in 1973. This Element shows how the challenge of EU membership gave focus and direction to Irish economic policy. No longer dependent on low value-added agricultural exports to Britain, within the EU Ireland became a hub for multinational corporations in IT and pharmaceutical products. This export success require…

Combating Beijing’s Sharp Power: How Australia's Civil Society Led the Way
This essay probes the role of civil society in Australia-China relations during Xi Jinping's term in office. Varying explanations have been advanced to explain difficulties in bilateral relations, some pointing to the role of Australia's security establishment in orchestrating a 'China Panic' in civil society and prompting the Australian government to act. I argue that this confuses cause and effect. Civil society was a decade ahead of government…

Chinese Diaspora Charity and the Cantonese Pacific, 1850–1949
Charity is common to diaspora communities the world over, from Armenian diaspora networks to Zimbabwean ones, but the forms charitable activity takes vary across communities and sites of settlement. What was distinctive about Chinese diaspora charity? This volume explores the history of charity among overseas Chinese during the century from 1850 to 1949 with a particular focus on the Cantonese "Gold Rush" communities of the Pacific rim, a loosely…

Cadre Nation: Territorial Government and the Lessons of Imperial Statecraft in Xi Jinping’s China
In recent years China’s Communist Party leadership has drawn attention to the lessons of imperial history for China’s modern system of cadre (ganbu) management. The Party’s focus on history draws attention to points of continuity and discontinuity between the bureaucratic systems of the empire and the People’s Republic. This article considers the historical framework of territorial government under which officials operate and the historical traje…
Overstepping Down Under
In recent years, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has embraced the idea that China’s national culture and value system need to be spread more widely abroad if the country is to secure its foreign-policy objectives. The CCP pursues this strategy through routine public diplomacy as well as a range of unorthodox influence operations. Australia has been an early target of these activities. It has also been at the forefront among liberal democracies …
Chinese Students in White Australia: State, Community, and Individual Responses to the Student Visa Program, 1920-25
A recent archival discovery reveals that around four hundred visas were issued to students from China to study in Australia from 1920 to 1925. This article explains and explores the significance of this little-known initiative under the White Australia Policy by reference to China's global resurgence, the role of the Chinese consulate-general in local community affairs, and support and resistance among Chinese community leaders in response to the…

EU Enlargement and Migration: Assessing the Macroeconomic Impacts
Enlargement of the European Union in May 2004 was followed by an increase in migration from the poorest of the central and eastern European New Member States (NMS) to other Member States. We consider the macroeconomic impacts of these migration flows across Europe, highlighting impacts in receiving and sending countries
Images of the desire for drugs
The pharmacologically addicted body has emerged in recent times as a dominant image shaping drug discourse. Implicit in this image is a drug desire that overpowers and over-determines the individual. A key feature of this particular drug user body is the body as degenerative with drugs as the cause of social suffering through reducing the social agency of the drug user. Likewise the image of the addict with a hardwired primitive desire for drugs …
Equality, Modernity, and Gender in Chinese Nationalism
Big White Lie: Chinese Australians in White Australia
This book pays close attention to Chinese migration patterns, debates, social organisations and their business and religious lives and shows that they had every right to be counted as Australians, even in White Australia. It provides a refreshing new perspective on the importance of the Chinese in Australia's past.
Public injecting and the need for ‘safer environment interventions’ in the reduction of drug‐related harm
Background One key structural dimension in the distribution of drug‐related harm associated with injecting drug use is the injecting environment. Epidemiological evidence associates elevated blood‐borne viral risk with injecting in ‘public’ and ‘semipublic’ environments. Yet the quality of evidence on public injecting and related viral risk is variable, and is lacking in many countries such as the United Kingdom. Aim This commentary considers the…
Visual data in addictions research: Seeing comes before words

Transnational networks and national identities in the Australian commonwealth: The Chinese‐Australasian Kuomintang, 1923–1937
Chinese communities maintained a variety of institutional networks linking Australia, New Zealand, the Pacific Islands and southern China over the first half of the twentieth century. This paper explores one of these networks, the Australasian branch network of the Chinese Nationalist Party (Kuo Min Tang or KMT). By focusing on two institutional initiatives of the Australasian Kuo Min Tang—one in China and one in Australia—the paper asks whether …
Impact of Changes in Medicare Home Health Care Reimbursement on Month-to-Month Home Health Utilization Between 1996 and 2001 for a National Sample of Patients Undergoing Orthopedic Procedures
BACKGROUND: Beginning October 1, 1997, Medicare implemented a series of major changes to the Home Health (HH) reimbursement system. Reimbursements were first significantly reduced under the Interim Payment System (IPS) and then relaxed slightly until implementation of the HH Prospective Payment System (PPS) on October 1, 2000. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to examine the impact of reimbursement policy on HH care utilization. RESEARCH…
East by South: China in the Australasian Imagination
Illegal drug markets in transitional economies
The rise of illegal drug markets in transitional economies is usually conceptualized as an effect of economic transition. With the emergence of new understandings of transitional economies and contemporary thinking about global capitalism, drug markets can be understood to have a different function. In global capitalism, the illegal drug market is an apparatus of capture that choreographs a quest for pleasure, liberation, freedom and the hope for…

Safety becomes danger: Dilemmas of drug-use in public space
Local Labor Markets and Local Area Effects on Welfare Duration
The Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) has become an important tool for studying how long people stay on welfare programs because it has monthly data on a variety of welfare programs. This article presents estimates of duration models for unmarried women with children who are on the Aid to Families with Dependent Children program (AFDC) using the 1984 and 1985 panels of SIPP. A weakness in previous welfare duration studies is that …
Welfare reform and female headship
While much of the focus of recent welfare reforms has been on moving recipients from welfare to work, many reforms were also directed at decisions regarding living arrangements, pregnancy, marriage, and cohabitation. This article assesses the impact of welfare reform waivers and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) programs on women’s decisions to become unmarried heads of families, controlling for confounding influences from local econ…

There are two lemons in the larder of Modern China's history. Stalin's, dating from April 1927, is certainly the better known:Chiang Kaishek is submitting to discipline. The Kuomintang is a bloc, a sort of revolutionary parliament, with the Right, the Left and the Communists. Why make a coup d'etat? Why drive away the Right when we have the majority and the Right listens to us?... Also, they have connections with the rich merchants and can raise …

An Experimental Study of the Effects of Class Size
The study investigated the effects of four class sizes (16, 23, 30, and 37) on teachers’ expectations; the attitudes and opinions of participants (students and teachers); student achievement in reading, mathematics, composition, and art; student self-concept; and a variety of classroom process variables (e.g., teacher-pupil interaction, pupil participation, method of instruction). Teachers and students were randomly assigned to a class size in Gr…
Hedonic Estimation and Policy Significance of the Impact of Hope VI on Neighborhood Property Values
HOPE VI was designed as a program to revitalize distressed public housing. This study uses hedonic methods to test whether projects that are rebuilt with HOPE VI funds have a positive effect on surrounding property values. Comparisons are made between HOPE VI and other types of public housing programs using data on property values by census block groups from the 2000 census. We find that HOPE VI had a statistically significant positive impact on …

The Unfinished History of China's Future
This paper traces the history of thinking about the `future' in China from the late 19th to the late 20th centuries with a view to identifying China's particular `end of history'. At the turn of this century, the future of New China was prefigured in a variety of scenarios - from statist to liberal - that implied competing goals and strategies for realizing the future. These strategies were shaped by a utopian vision of Great Harmony ( datong), w…
Rescuing history from the nation
I have been asked to touch on the history that Prasenjit Duara rescues in Rescuing History, rather than on the theoretical apparatus employed in his attempt. The two are not easily separated in any case, but here the customary distinctions among empirically verifiable evidence, explanatory strategies, and historical method are especially tenuous. Duara goes well beyond the relativist claim that historical “facts” are selective and partial records…

Desire and the Abject in the City Becoming-Other
When The Age renamed the corner of Russell and Bourke streets the 'Golden Elbow' it brought the city into close proximity with an altogether different city. Neither Chang Mai, Hong Kong nor Melbourne, the Golden Elbow was defined by what it could be. Neither one thing (Melbourne) nor another (somewhere else), the Golden Elbow is a space of the city-becoming-other. Through narrative work and news media maps of no-go zones, machines mobilise fear a…

Mao in Mufti: Newly Identified Works by Mao Zedong
Mao Zedong was a prominent Guomindang (GMD) official in Guangdong for about a year between September 1925 and mid-1926, but little has been revealed about his activities during this period because his association with Chiang Kai-shek has remained a source of some embarrassment to historians on both sides of the Taiwan Straits. As the relevant files in the archives of both the GMD and the Communist Party of China (CPC) are closed to researchers, p…
A New Cultural Revolution: The Commercialisation of Culture in China
While landmark cases of artistic liberalisation or repression have been appearing with their customary regularity in China over recent years, and receiving due attention among foreign scholars, a more profound development in the organisation and marketing of all manner of cultural services appears to have passed almost without notice. A small but significant portion of the cultural network in China has become cornmercialised in the sense that cul…

The Misconceived Revolution: State and Society in China's Nationalist Revolution, 1923-26
The process of state-building in the Chinese revolution was confounded, and remains obscured, by a contest between rival claimants to state power in the Nationalist and Communist parties. There is a natural temptation to trace conflict in the state-building process to ideological differences between the two parties, as they did themselves, and to overlook their similarities and downplay the potential for political conflict and social resistance i…

Awakening China: Politics, Culture, and Class in the Nationalist Revolution
This innovative work is the first to approach the awakening of China as a historical problem in its own right, and to locate this problem within the broader history of the rise of modern China. It analyzes the link between the awakening of China as a historical narrative and the awakening of the Chinese people as a political technique for building a sovereign and independent state. In sum, it asks what we mean when we say that China “woke up” in …
