Communicating with deaf and hard of hearing individuals in urgent care
Deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) individuals continue to experience inequitable access to healthcare despite federal mandates ensuring communication accessibility. Communication barriers between healthcare providers and DHH patients contribute to misunderstandings, undermining quality of care and increasing risk of adverse health outcomes. In the urgent care setting, where time-sensitive decision-making is critical, limited access to communication …

The Austin School Manifesto
Regimes of truth
This paper examines the policies and directions framing the professional practice of Australian combat photographers in the Second World War. It argues that while their endeavours to offer an account of the nation at war were constrained by predictable considerations of politics and censorship, their commitment to truth was also framed and constricted by an array of cultural considerations. The nation’s ongoing engagement with the history of the …

Familiarity Breeds Contempt? What the Australian Defence Force Thinks of its Coverage in the Australian Media, and Why
This article offers the first empirical study of the origins, nature and effects of Australian Defence Force (ADF) opinions about the Australian media's coverage of Defence issues and ADF operations. It summarises the history of fractious military–media relations in Australia, and looks at the principal contributors to the current antipathy between the parties. It argues that while the media routinely denounce the military's motivations in its de…
Shadows of Vietnam
This paper contrasts Australian and US military responses to the media coverage of the war in Vietnam. It examines the “oppositional media thesis”, considers how this shaped subsequent US military-media relations, and examines the experiences leading to the review and reform of the military's official position in relation to the media. The paper then compares the US experience with that of the Australian military, examining the factors shaping Au…
Confronting Genocide

The nineteenth-century adventure tales that argued for or justified the extension of empire were, in Martin Green's well-worn phrase, 'the energising myth of English imperialism. They were, collectively, the story England told itself as…
