The Day They Dropped the Atom Bomb on Healesville
Trans-Tasman Liaison
This article examines attempts at defence policy co-ordination between Australia and New Zealand before, during and immediately after the Second World War, with emphasis upon the establishment, role and significance of the New Zealand Liaison Offices (NZLOs) in Australia across their most active lifespan of 1940–1948.Employing official correspondence housed in the national archives of both countries, it argues that, although the NZLOs facilitated…
Perceptual information supports transfer of learning in coordinated rhythmic movement
In this paper, we trained people to produce 90° mean relative phase using task-appropriate feedback and investigated whether and how that learning transfers to other coordinations. Past work has failed to find transfer of learning to other relative phases, only to symmetry partners (identical coordinations with reversed lead–lag relationships) and to other effector combinations. However, that research has all trained people using transformed visu…
True Anzacs’, Yanks and ‘yikes’
This article explores the New Zealand presence on the Australian home front during WW2, from experiences of troops in transit to the local activities of NZ voluntary aid detachments. While much has been published regarding American and other forces in wartime Australia, those from our closest regional ally have not received the same attention. Employing contemporary accounts and archival sources, this article establishes New Zealanders in their r…
This Way of Treating Friendly Aliens Seems Strange to Me’
This article explores the surveillance and internment in Australia of ‘friendly aliens’ from occupied Europe during the Second World War. Employing official correspondence of the period housed principally in the National Archives of Australia, it focuses upon the relationship between various Australian security services and consular representatives of Allied governments-in-exile, exploring how this relationship impacted upon ‘friendly aliens’ sus…
The Other Allies
This article investigates military security attitudes toward the enlistment of ‘friendly aliens’ in the Australian armed forces during the Second World War. Employing official correspondence of the period, the study positions contemporary debates regarding the enlistment of Allied nationals from Axis-occupied countries within the context of Australian conceptions of race, British nationality, and national allegiance. It is argued that, while Brit…

A sense of Nordism’
This article explores the political connections that developed between militant Breton nationalists and members of Germanic movements between 1919 and 1945. The adoption of pan-Celticism in general – and the inspiration of Irish Republicanism in particular – has been adequately investigated in recent historical literature dealing with Breton nationalism. The development of Celticism as a racialist concept within the domestic French political cont…
The Unwelcome Brothers
Shortly after the outbreak of war in September 1939, the yacht Ron Bhan put in at the Irish town of Athlone.1 On board was a family of sorts: a striking man of theatrical bearing, his wife, sister
