Unwrapping Victoria’s general environmental duty to plastics communities: Synthetic statutes
The manufacture, storage and disposal of plastics can have significant negative impacts on communities living near plastics facilities, which we have termed ‘plastics communities’. This article discusses how the general environmental duty, under Victoria’s reformed Environment Protection Act 2017, can be utilised by plastics communities. This duty has the potential to reduce the harm caused by plastics industries and contribute towards broader en…
A consideration of love
In the most recent television production of Armistead Maupin’s Tales of the City book series, shown on Netflix, there is a moment at a dinner party where a group of ageing gay, white cismen are challenged by a younger coloured gay cisman about their use of language. The younger man is particularly annoyed about the word ‘tranny’, which operates to diminish, segment and exclude parts of the queer community. It is meant to be a provocative moment t…
Nuclear Citizens Jury: From Local Deliberations to Transboundary and Transgenerational Legal Dilemmas
South Australia is home to one of the world’s largest uranium mines for export, but does not participate in further stages of the nuclear fuel cycle.

On 12 December 2013 the High Court revealed its decision in Commonwealth v Australian Capital Territory ('Same Sex Marriage case') on the Commonwealth's challenge to the Marriage Equality (Same Sex) Act 2013 (ACT), and at the same time it reduced the possibilities for other state and territory proposals for so-called 'marriage equality laws
Plural and hybrid environmental values: A discourse analysis of the wind energy conflict in Australia and the United Kingdom
Wind energy has divided environmentalists. To understand why, disparate groups from Victoria, Australia and the United Kingdom are characterised as discourse coalitions, and their views and arguments are digested into compelling storylines. Drawing on the literature that explains environmental conflicts in terms of contrasting values, a discourse analysis approach is used to identify and define the hybrid and plural values held by the groups with…

Energy Policy in Australia: A comparison of environmental considerations in New South Wales and Victoria
World-wide, people and governments are gradually becoming more aware of the potential environmental, economic and health effects of climate change and the need for governments to take action to mitigate such impacts. This was emphasised by the creation of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), signed at the Rio Earth Summit in 1992. There has been much discussion on the greenhouse policy response of the commonwealth g…
