  • Ten-year longitudinal study of incarceration among a community-based cohort of people who inject drugs

    Open AccessJocelyn Chan, Michael Curtis et al.ARTICLEHealth & Justice2026

    People who inject drugs are over-represented among incarcerated populations. However, there are few studies elucidating patterns of incarceration among people who inject drugs, especially among community-based cohorts. Furthermore, data on drug use and injecting risk behaviours in carceral settings are limited globally. We aimed to describe lifetime patterns of incarceration, as well as drug use and injecting risk behaviours while incarcerated, a…

  • “They don’t think much of you if you’re using”

    Open AccessZoe Gleeson, Peter Higgs et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of Drug…2026

    BACKGROUND: In Australia, methamphetamine ('ice') use has been framed as a major social problem, contributing to punitive policy responses and ongoing criminalisation through which stigma is enacted. Although smoking is the predominant route of use, little is known about how people who smoke methamphetamine experience stigma. METHODS: In-depth interviews were conducted with nine people with histories of smoking methamphetamine, no lifetime histor…

  • Persian Gulf coups misrepresented

    Tancred Bradshaw, Michael Curtis et al.ARTICLEMiddle Eastern Studies2022Cited by: 1

    One of the less well-known facets of the final years of pax Britannica in the Persian Gulf was the unwritten policy that the British government overthrew rulers who breached their treaty commitments, failed to develop their states or who declined to accept advice. Between 1965 and 1970 the Foreign Office orchestrated three coups in the region: Sharjah in 1965, Abu Dhabi in 1966 and Salalah (Oman) in 1970. Various objectives were achieved includin…

  • Lifetime prevalence and correlates of self-harm and suicide attempts among male prisoners with histories of injecting drug use

    Open AccessAshleigh C Stewart, Reece Cossar et al.ARTICLEHealth & Justice2018

    BACKGROUND: Histories of self-harm and suicide attempts are common among people in prison in Australia, and substance dependence is an established risk factor for these lifetime experiences. We describe the prevalence of self-reported history of non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) and suicide attempts in a cohort of men with recent histories of injecting drug use (IDU) imprisoned in Victoria, Australia. Baseline interviews from the Prison and Transit…

    Open AccessReece Cossar, Mark Stoovè et al.ARTICLEHealth & Justice2018

    BACKGROUND: Dual substance dependence and psychiatric and psychological morbidities are overrepresented in prison populations and associated with reoffending. In the context of an increasing prison population in Australia, investigating the needs of vulnerable people in prison with a dual diagnosis can help inform in-prison screening and treatment and improve prison and community service integration and continuation of care. In this study we quan…

  • The Modern Social Conflict

    Ralf Dahrendorf, Michael CurtisBOOKModern Social Conflict2017

    Revolutions are melancholy moments in history—brief gasps of hope that emerges from misery and disillusionment. This is true for great revolutions, like 1789 in France or 1917 in Russia, but applies to lesser political upheavals as well. Conflict builds into a state of tense confrontation, like a powder keg. When a spark is thrown, an explosion takes place and the old edifice begins to crumble. People are caught up in an initial mood of elation, …

  • Jews, Antisemitism, and the Middle East

    Michael Kent Curtis, Michael CurtisBOOKJews, Antisemitism, and the…2017

    Will animosity towards Jews and the State of Israel never end? This book ventures to rectify the misrepresentations, propaganda, obsessions, and falsifications widely disseminated in the media and public discourse, explaining the motivations behind them. The issues Michael Curtis scrutinizes are complicated and controversial, sometimes even baffling, but he reviews them in as objective and rigorous a manner as possible. Curtis divides his argumen…

    Shin Y Kim, Carina Saraiva et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2013References: 27

    Objectives. We calculated the racial/ethnic-specific percentages of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) attributable to overweight and obesity. Methods.

Using logistic regression, we estimated the magnitude of the association between prepregnancy body mass index and GDM and calculated the percentages of GDM attributable to…

  • Orientalism and Islam

    Open AccessMichael Kent Curtis, Michael CurtisBOOKOrientalism and Islam2009

    Through an historical analysis of the theme of Oriental despotism, Michael Curtis reveals the complex positive and negative interaction between Europe and the Orient. The book also criticizes the misconception that the Orient was the constant victim of Western imperialism and the view that Westerners cannot comment objectively on Eastern and Muslim societies. The book views the European concept of Oriental despotism as based not on arbitrary prej…
