Wave Goodbye to the Future: Haunting, Music, and Cultural Stasis in the Regional Novels of Catherine O’Flynn and Joel Lane
Using Mark Fisher’s reconfigurations of Derrida’s Hauntology, this article explores the interactions between these narrative features in the works of Catherine O’Flynn and Joel Lane. Fisher reworks hauntology in relation to the distinct features of ‘futuristic’ music and ‘retro’ perceptions of what lay ahead. He links this psychic and cultural trap with ideas of the weird and the eerie. Both O’Flynn and Lane have produced eerie texts set in the o…
How we achieved “the most significant Australian child welfare reform in a generation
In Australia, on any given day, about 45,000 children and youth aged 0–17 (about 1 per cent of Australian youth) are in the care of the state, often cared for through delegation‐funded child welfare organisations. Many of these children are in out‐of‐home care of such organisations for brief periods of time, but a substantial number remain in care until their mandatory emancipation. About 3600 youth a year are obliged to leave care at 18 years of…
Digital Media Distribution: Portals, Platforms, Pipelines
A deep dive into the new era of digital content production and distribution In the twenty-first century, the platforms that both create and host content have become nearly as important as media itself. Companies such as Netflix, Spotify, and YouTube have attained a massive hold on the public imagination and have become an almost ineluctable part of people’s everyday lives. While the workings of media distribution had until very recently remained …

Doing, Having, and Getting Work: Acting as Creative Labour
In what ways does acting represent a form of work? From one perspective, the work of acting is taken to mean exercising artistic and creative craft: the techniques, actions, and procedures involved with portraying a character. Yet acting also means employment, the state of being ‘in work’ for pay. Once we begin to think about acting as a job, however, we must acknowledge how endemic job insecurity routinely sees actors regularly experiencing unem…
Pirate-states: Imagining the geography of media piracy
Intellectual property (IP) history has long pointed to certain nations as sources of copyright infringement, but these linkages are now systematically produced through annual Special 301 reporting by the US government and media industries. Exploring connections between infringement and nation, this article poses three concepts. Anti-piracy discourse produces a pirate repertoire, a stock of familiar transgressive figures deployed in efforts to com…
Hollywood, the MPAA, and the formation of anti-piracy policy
Combating piracy is fundamental to the policy ‘priorities’ of the Motion Picture Association of America, the trade association representing the major Hollywood entertainment corporations. As the MPAA implements a multitude of actions to fight piracy, it is impossible to locate the formation of the Association’s anti-piracy policy in any single source. Instead, this article sees MPAA anti-piracy policy as formed across three fronts: the legal, thr…
Female Identity and the Woman Songwriter
They appear from between a line of pillars. First Howard, elegantly curving his arms over his head. Then Robbie, who brings his hands together in prayer. Jason emerges, bends, and arches his back. Gary just sort of stands. Finally, Mark saws the air with his arms. For most of the video the boys will individually occupy separate spaces, with each lost in his own world. As the image cuts from colour to black and white, Gary – the one who sings – is…
Perceived Risk and Quitting Behaviors: Results From the ITC 4-Country Survey
Perceived risk plays a significant role in predicting quitting smoking, more so for relatively simple behaviors
Softening up on the hardening hypothesis
The hardening hypothesis has intuitive and common sense appeal: in jurisdictions that have implemented evidence-based tobacco control policies, the smokers who have a relatively easy time quitting will quit, and as the future unfolds there will be an increasing proportion of remaining smokers who cannot quit and are more resistant to quitting than smokers in the past. In this context, ‘hardening’ is a measure of a group, or population, over time.…
Quentin Skinner, intentionality and the history of education
This article attempts to reconsider and re‐evaluate the often misunderstood and mis‐conceptualised notion of “progressivism” within education by examining it through the lens of intentionality, specifically the textual kind prescribed by Quentin Skinner in his seminal work “Visions of Politics” (2002). Locating and explicating his ideas will therefore form the first part of the article. In particular, there will be an examination of his two key a…

Graphic Canadian Cigarette Warning Labels and Adverse Outcomes: Evidence from Canadian Smokers
Objectives. We assessed the impact of graphic Canadian cigarette warning labels. Methods. We used a longitudinal telephone survey of 616 adult smokers. Results. Approximately one fifth of participants reported smoking less as a result of the labels; only 1% reported smoking more. Although participants reported negative emotional responses to the warnings including fear (44%) and disgust (58%), smokers who reported greater negative emotion were mo…

The Impact of Cigarette Warning Labels and Smoke-free Bylaws on Smoking Cessation: Evidence from Former Smokers
Better Practices for Youth Tobacco Cessation: Evidence of Review Panel
Cognitive-behavioral interventions are a promising approach for helping young smokers quit smoking. Evidence is insufficient to draw other conclusions at this time
Impact of the graphic Canadian warning labels on adult smoking behaviour
Graphic cigarette warning labels serve as an effective population based smoking cessation intervention. The findings add to the growing literature on health warnings and provide strong support for the effectiveness of Canada's tobacco labelling policy

The Behavior of Sellafield-Derived 14 C in the Northeast Irish Sea
Radiocarbon is an important constituent of the low level, liquid, radioactive effluent discharged from the Sellafield nuclear fuel reprocessing plant in northwest England, but despite the fact that it gives the highest collective dose commitment of all the nuclides in the waste, its behavior in the Irish Sea is poorly defined. There is therefore a clear requirement for an improved understanding of 14 C behavior in the Irish Sea, to assist with do…

The Class of '81: A Glance at the Social Class Composition of Recruits to the Legal Profession
The legal profession has expanded enormously over the last two decades. In part at least, this is the result of a deliberate policy of recruitment by the Law Society, which in the mid-1960s was concerned to attract graduates into a profession considered at that time to be about 5,000 below strength. In the same period, the Bar, which in 1960 numbered only 1,919 practitioners, also began to increase its membership to meet a rising demand for legal…

The expression and perception of facial emotion in alexithymia: A pilot study
The term alexithymia denotes a cluster of traits including a marked difficulty in finding words to describe emotions. Despite a rapidly growing literature, the construct has not been validated adequately. The present study addressed the validity of the construct. Twenty males assessed as alexithymic or not, on the basis of the Schalling-Sifneos Personality Scale, were videotaped during tasks designed to elicit spontaneous and posed facial express…
