Third World in the First
European colonisation has marginalised the `first peoples' in industrialised countries such as Australia and Canada. In remote regions, still the homes of large Aboriginal, Indian and Inuit populations, this legacy remains strong.Modernisation - the `boom and bust' model of state and private development - and the partial and biased assistance provided by the state have eroded many communities through their disregard for socio-economic structures …
Shared Experiences
This volume of Aboriginal History presents a diverse group of papers concerned with historical and political issues and experiences of aboriginal peoples in their interactions with the 'outsiders', the adventurers, government officers, traders and settlers who came uninvited into their countries from foreign lands. They focus not only on indigenous Australians but also on indigenous minorities in New Zealand, Canada, the United States of America …
Charles Rowley – a fighter for justice and equality
death in September 1985 left all who had known him and worked with him with a deep sense of loss.Not only were social scientists, both researchers and students, deprived of the opportunity to discuss their work with Charles, knowing that they would receive wise advise and support, but also all concerned with the cause of justice for the dis advantaged were aware that one of the main protagonists had gone.But although the loss is great, Charles ha…
Resettlement and caring for the country
Caring for country, the carrying out of traditional responsibility for the land, is a process of great importance for Aboriginal people.If the country is neglected it will become infertile and fail to provide sustenance; and the integrity of its spirit guardians and progenitors will no longer be maintained.Such truths are essential to the fabric of Aboriginal society.They form the basis for definition of Aboriginal traditional land ownership, con…
Reconciliation or exclusion? Integrating indigenous and non‐indigenous land management concepts for Australia’s Native Title era
Indigenous and non‐indigenous concepts of land ownership and use are fundamental elements in Australian debate on the implications of Native Title for development. However these approaches are not necessarily incompatible but can be reconciled. Drawing on evidence from the central Australian rangelands, this paper argues that the adaptations of land use practised by indigenous people, who have converted their land tenure from pastoral leasehold t…
Sustainability, development and rural aboriginal communities
Aborigines, because of their population numbers and increasing control over land and resources, are crucial to the sustainable development of rural Australia. However, appropriate Aboriginal development requires the replacement of the ‘top‐down’ approaches generally adopted by government agencies by ‘bottom‐up’ approaches reflecting the needs and aspirations of rural Aboriginal people. Past experience demonstrates that Aborigines have faced many …
Research in Australian Geography
The IGU Sydney Conference made 1988 a memorable year for Australian geographers. It provided us with unique opportunities to meet old friends and colleagues and to forge contacts with new acquaintances; and, through our involvement in the huge range of activities associated with the meeting, it involved many of us in a global network of geographers, the benefits of which we continue to reap. Our 1988 visitors, primarily from the northern hemisphe…
Striving for equity
Aborigines and land in Northern Australian development
Northern Australian development has been based primarily on land ownership and the commercial exploitation of resources. Aborigines, lacking legally recognised tenure to land, have largely been excluded from this process. Their priorities for development have rarely been considered. Aboriginal land rights legislation theoretically transforms this situation. But, because of external pressures, Aboriginal land owners have to a large extent continue…
