An Aid or an Obstacle? Parent and Teacher Perspectives on the Impact of Technology on Children's Wellbeing and School Life
The dominance of technology in the daily lives of modern‐day children has raised much concern about the impacts on their wellbeing. However, there are also many advantages and opportunities transpiring. This paper asks whether technology is an aid or an obstacle to a child's wellbeing and school life. Parent and teacher perspectives were collected from a group of seven schools in Northwest England using surveys and interviews, seeking to compare …

Snowed
Actor-director Juliet Berto (1947–1990) has the status of legend or icon in global (and particularly French) cinema, but she has not been particularly well served, to date, by film criticism and scholarship. Many accounts (including the most effusive) praise only her striking looks and her “eccentricity” as a performer in films by Jean-Luc Godard and Jacques Rivette. The 2023 DVD/ Blu-ray release of Neige (1981) has finally refocussed attention o…
Is it just conservation? A typology of Indigenous peoples’ and local communities’ roles in conserving biodiversity
As conservation initiatives expand in response to biodiversity loss, there remains limited understanding about what forms of governance and roles for different actors produce the best ecological outcomes. Indigenous peoples’ and local communities’ (IPs’ and LCs’) roles extend beyond participation to more equitable governance based on relative control and recognition of their values and institutions, but the relationship with conservation outcomes…
Diverse values of nature for sustainability
Twenty-five years since foundational publications on valuing ecosystem services for human well-being 1,2 , addressing the global biodiversity crisis 3 still implies confronting barriers to incorporating nature’s diverse values into decision-making. These barriers include powerful interests supported by current norms and legal rules such as property rights, which determine whose values and which values of nature are acted on. A better understandin…
The pitfalls of plural valuation
This paper critically examines the current political context in which valuation studies of nature are undertaken. It challenges the belief that somehow, more and technically better valuation will drive the societal change toward more just and sustainable futures. Instead, we argue that current and proposed valuation practices risk to continue to overrepresent the values of those who hold power and dominate the valuation space, and to perpetuate t…
The role of values in future scenarios
Values have been recognized as critical leverage points for sustainability transformations. However, there is limited evidence unpacking which types of values are associated with specific types of sustainable and unsustainable futures, as described by future scenarios and other types of futures-related works. This paper builds on a review of 460 future scenarios, visions, and other types of futures-related works in the Intergovernmental Science-P…
Justice, sustainability, and the diverse values of nature
Aiming at just and sustainable futures for biodiversity conservation requires clarity concerning how justice relates to the diverse values of nature. By drawing upon and expanding on the recent Values Assessment of Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services, this article discusses the implications of the diverse values of nature for different dimensions of justice. It also addresses how achieving transformative change that …

Two or three things I know about Tom
A personal appreciation of the work and legacy of Tom O’Regan, focusing on his 1994 essay “Two or Three Things I Know About Meaning”. Although O’Regan’s work is often described as being concerned primarily with social discourses and institutional contexts in the landscape of audiovisual media, he also paid close attention to the mechanisms of film and TV texts. His view of meaning was complex and multi-factorial, reflecting both his intellectual …
Body Hopping
This article is a speculative investigation into the depiction of “body hopping”—an entity inhabiting a string of different bodies—in popular cinema since the 1980s. This trope features in genres ranging from horror and sci-fi to teen films and romantic comedies. Although often a narrative premise of dubious logic, body hopping offers us a way, as spectators, to enter into an imaginatively projected fantasy of the human body and its powers. I con…
Conservationists' perspectives on poverty
Biodiversity conservation interventions have long confronted challenges of human poverty. The ethical foundations of international conservation, including conservation's relationship with poverty, are currently being interrogated in animated debates about the future of conservation. However, while some commentary exists, empirical analysis of conservation practitioner perspectives on poverty, and their ethical justification, has been lacking thus…

Sowing the seeds of sustainable rural livelihoods? An assessment of Participatory Forest Management through Redd+ in Tanzania
Togetherness
Together (2018) is not the greatest film project of Terrence Malick. Invited by Facebook, via its ‘creative studio’ component The Factory, to collaborate with Jon Boogz and Lil Buck (co-founders of the dance organization Movement Art Is) and UK visual effects company Framestore on a ‘360-degree VR experience’, the director undoubtedly seized it as an opportunity to explore and experiment with technological possibilities – as he had done previousl…

Can agricultural intensification help attain Sustainable Development Goals? Evidence from Africa and Asia
Market-oriented agricultural intensification is a major development strategy, yet its alignment with sustainable development goals (SDGs) is unclear. We apply indicators for SDG 2 (eradicate hunger) regarding income, food production, food security and land tenure to recent intensifications in Rwanda and Laos to reveal their disaggregated impacts. We find while market-oriented intensification may generate poverty reduction, it also exacerbated mar…

Unbearable Significance, or
I am writing from another country, far away; I no longer live in Australia. Meaghan Morris is partly responsible for this. Let me explain. At the end of 2011, I found myself reading the transcript of a long interview with Meaghan conducted by a Melbourne-based researcher, Lauren Bliss. In this discussion, Meaghan comments on the move, in the course of her professional life, to Hong Kong: What I really wanted to do was what lots of students from A…
Just Conservation
Loss of biodiversity is one of the great environmental challenges facing humanity but unfortunately efforts to reduce the rate of loss have so far failed. At the same time, these efforts have too often resulted in unjust social outcomes in which people living in or near to areas designated for conservation lose access to their territories and resources. In this book the author argues that our approach to biodiversity conservation needs to be more…
From food to pest
Ecosystem research focuses on goods and services, thereby ascribing beneficial values to the ecosystems. Depending on the context, however, outputs from ecosystems can be both positive and negative. We examined how provisioning services of wild animals and plants can switch between being services and disservices. We studied agricultural communities in Laos to illustrate when and why these switches take place. Government restrictions on land use c…
Justice and conservation
In light of the Aichi target to manage protected areas equitably by 2020, we ask how the conservation sector should be incorporating concerns for social justice. We focus in particular on 'recognition', because it is the least well understood aspect of environmental justice, and yet highly relevant to conservation because of its concern with respect for local knowledge and cultures. In order to explore the meaning of recognition in the conservati…
Unpacking equity for protected area conservation
There have been numerous calls to ensure that protected areas are governed and managed in an equitable manner. While there has been progress on assessing management effectiveness, there has been less headway on defining the equitable part of the equation. Here we propose a framework for advancing equity in the context of protected area conservation that was developed through a process of expert workshops and consultation and then validated at thr…
Dwoskin, centripetal and centrifugal
The question of collaboration is central to the cinema – cinema understood in the broadest possible sense as found, shaped and achieved across all available media – of Stephen Dwoskin. He collaborated frequently, with artists such as Robert Kramer, Boris Lehman or Keja Ho Kramer, in codirected projects or exchanges of video letters; the process seemed to come naturally to him. With Dwoskin there is very little of the fraught drama of crossed wire…
Global environmental justice and biodiversity conservation
This paper explores the potential for an environmental justice framing to shed new light on conservation controversies. We argue that, in order to make such progress, environmental justice analysis will need to provide a 'difference-friendly' conception of justice and that this will necessarily involve moving beyond dominant liberal conceptions of distributional fairness. We are largely welcoming of global deployments of distributive justice prin…

Environmental Conflict Between Refugee and Host Communities
Much of the existing environmental security literature examines the causal linkages between environmental scarcity and violent conflict. Such research is clearly useful for exploring the causes of violence but less useful for exploring the causes of peace. This article adopts a theoretical approach to the environment-conflict nexus that considers a range of local variables that shape the ways in which actors socially construct resource use compet…
Global environmental in/justice, in practice
This paper introduces a themed section on global environmental in/justice. In doing so it pays particular attention to two matters. First, it explores the value of a 'global' perspective on justice, highlighting how this framing reflects the nature and scales of contemporary environmental problems, the political-economic forces that pattern the uneven access to resources, and the vocabularies and narratives that are used to make claims about thes…

Understanding the co-existence of conflict and cooperation
This article contributes to our understanding of transboundary environmental management regimes through the application of an analytical framework that facilitates an exploration of the co-existence of conflict and cooperation. Rather than framing conflict and cooperation as mutually exclusive states at opposite ends of a spectrum, we seek to understand the ways in which cooperation can exist at the same time as conflict. We apply this framework …

Partnerships for protected area conservation in Rwanda
This paper seeks to contribute to Rwanda's ongoing restructuring of protected area management. The early part of the paper draws on experiences elsewhere in Africa, as well as key contexts in Rwanda, to assert that conservation of national parks may best be served by flexible and inclusive partnerships that seek to integrate conservation activities across different agents and scales. This assertion is then explored more critically through empiric…

From Ablation to Undergirding
I have always learnt new words from the writings and public speeches of Stuart Cunningham. I retain a vivid memory, from 1982, of needing to look up a dictionary after his Australian Screen Studies conference presentation on Roeg’s Bad Timing (1980), in order to find out exactly what ablation was. (And it wasn’t pretty.) Even when I more or less knew the word in question, I had never had the experience of (to embroider a phrase from Clueless, 199…

Once Upon a Time in America
Released in 1984, Once Upon a Time in America was the final work of Sergio Leone, best known for Speghetti Westerns such as The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. This testament marries the director's flamboyant, expressionistic style to a story full of profound melancholy and regret. Tracing the lives of a gang of Jewish hoods from their childhood in the New York streets of the 1920s, Once Upon a Time in America centres on the relationship between Nood…

Lessons of noise and silence
This article is an historical survey of Australian experimental cinema from the 1960s to the present day organized around the use of music and sound. Six aesthetic categories are distinguished: film as backdrop to live music; live music as backdrop to film; pre-recorded music as a ‘bed’ for images; images as a bed for prerecorded music; disjunction between image and sound; image-sound fusion. The debate over the effects of musical rhythm in cinem…

What’s happening? Story, scene and sound in Hou Hsiao‐Hsien
In the films of Hou Hsiao‐Hsien, we are constantly confronted, during our first viewing, with the question: ‘What’s happening?’ – in the storyline as a whole, and in any given scene. This is a deliberate, systematic and productive confusion created by Hou’s distinctive cinematic style; it also has ramifications for the films’ complex thematic and cultural‐political levels of meaning. By negotiating such artistic confusion, we can find a path betw…
Ozploitation compared to what? A challenge to contemporary Australian film studies
Australian exploitation cinema of the 1970s and 1980s has swiftly become a fashionable topic for analysis, rehabilitation and celebration, especially in the wake of the popular documentary Not Quite Hollywood featuring Quentin Tarantino. Is this Australian cinema's ‘return of the repressed’, at last, in the form of tough, vulgar, anarchic genre pictures—and does this show the way forward for our national cinema? This essay questions many aspects …
An idleness bordering on the wacky’
This study of the Australian filmmaker Paul Cox aims to tease out a number of contradictions in the institution of Australian art cinema from the 1970s to the present day. It looks at the cultural, social and historical factors which position Cox as a supposedly ‘maligned’ artist; the interpretive work of film criticism and analysis that helps construct the reception of his career; and recent changes in the arthouse sector that have ushered in fi…

Social Equity Matters in Payments for Ecosystem Services
Although conservation efforts have sometimes succeeded in meeting environmental goals at the expense of equity considerations, the changing context of conservation and a growing body of evidence increasingly suggest that equity considerations should be integrated into conservation planning and implementation. However, this approach is often perceived to be at odds with the prevailing focus on economic efficiency that characterizes many payment fo…
Towards an Explicit Justice Framing of the Social Impacts of Conservation
This paper proposes that biodiversity conservation practice will benefit from assessment of environmental justice outcomes, especially in contexts of poverty and social marginalisation. Whilst there is an existing body of work that implicitly considers the justices and injustices arising from biodiversity conservation interventions, we suggest that a more explicit justice assessment might complement this work. We develop some general guidelines f…
A little fiction
When Chilean-born Raúl Ruiz (1941–2011) came to adapt Proust's Time Regained in 1999, he hit upon the idea of using three actors to play three Prousts (as child, as adult and as narrator), and to combine them, at times, in the same frame. This was, in fact, the fruit of long-term exploration in his career: already a key element in his television series Manoel on the Island of Marvels (1984), and persisting to his final work, Night Across the Stre…
