Incarceration and environmental privilege: Prison labor in the ‘playground of the nation’
Neoliberal Multiculturalism and Changing Colonial Racial Hierarchies in International Development
This research examines a shift in international development discourse away from more overtly colonial and abject depictions of people from the Global South toward foregrounding positive portrayals of people from the Global South who are self-reliant and empowered through entrepreneurship and market labor. Through interviews, observations, and content analysis of university-based development programs and development organizations, we examine the r…

In this study, I add a racial analysis to this conversation, arguing tha…

However, minimal research has discussed how the …

Achievement Goals And Means: A Cultural Comparison
Recent research suggests that achievement-related behavior is culture specific and multifaceted. It is argued that achievement goals as well as means of achievement are oriented predominantly toward the individual in some cultures and toward the collective in others. A study was designed to examine achievement goals and means in two different cultures; one identified as individualist (consisting of a sample of 259 Anglo-Australians aged between 1…

The policy of multiculturalism has been enthusiastically endorsed by the Australian Government. However, the question arises as to whether this enthusiasm is matched by a similar view at the societal level. This study investigates the attitudes of Australian-born residents of Darwin in Northern Australia toward a number of issues relating to migrants and multiculturalism. Specifically, the study focuses on three research questions: (a) What is th…
