Next Steps in Decolonising Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Primary Health Care Policy in Australia: An Analysis of Key Stakeholder Views
Following a failed 2023 referendum on constitutional recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, Australian governments must work with Indigenous leaders to chart a new way forward in policy to support Indigenous health and wellbeing. Here we report on key stakeholder views on what is required to decolonise Indigenous primary health care (PHC) policy. This article reports on qualitative research conducting yarns with 20 senior st…

Is there still a need for abortion-specific laws? The capacity of the health framework to regulate abortion care
After prolonged periods of criminalisation, 20th and 21st century law reform has now moved abortion care closer to being regulated as health care in all Australian jurisdictions. However, no jurisdiction has yet tested the proposition that specific laws for abortion care are unnecessary. This article analyses the capability of health law, policy and ethics to regulate abortion comprehensively, without the need for either stand-alone laws or speci…
Public administration reform for Aboriginal affairs: An institutionalist analysis
Persistent underperformance of public policy and program implementation in Aboriginal affairs is widely recognised. We analysed the results of two case studies of attempted reforms in public administration of Aboriginal primary health care in the Northern Territory, using a framework based on the institutionalist and systemic racism literatures, with the aim of better understanding the sources of implementation failure. Implementation of the agre…
The treatment experiences of Australian women with gynaecological cancers and how they can be improved: A Qualitative Study
Gynaecological cancers are the fourth most common form of cancer and the fifth most common cause of cancer mortality for women in Australia. Definitive treatment is available in tertiary hospitals in major capital cities. This study aimed to understand how care is received by women in order to improve both their experience and outcomes. We interviewed 25 women treated for ovarian, cervical and uterine cancers in public or private hospitals in fou…
Contracting for Indigenous Health Care: Towards Mutual Accountability
In Australia and other industrialised countries, governments contract with the non‐government sector for the provision of primary health care to indigenous peoples. Australian governments have developed policies and funding programs to support this health sector, but the current arrangements are unduly complex and fragmented. The results of our study show that the complex contractual environment for Aboriginal Community‐Controlled Health Services…
The Secret War in El Paso: Mexican Revolutionary Intrigue, 1906 - 1920
This lengthy, award-winning study details the critical role played by the city of El Paso, Texas, in the violent phase of the Mexican Revolution between 1910 and 1920. The monograph is thoroughly researched using local, state, and federal sources and rests primarily on US archival materials, especially the infrequently used Federal Bureau of Investigation records. The authors show little concern with why the Mexican Revolution occurred and the un…
Analysing Contractual Environments: Lessons From Indigenous Health in Canada, Australia and New Zealand
Contracting in health care is a mechanism used by the governments of Canada, Australia and New Zealand to improve the participation of marginalized populations in primary health care and improve responsiveness to local needs. As a result, complex contractual environments have emerged. The literature on contracting in health has tended to focus on the pros and cons of classical versus relational contracts from the funder's perspective. This articl…

The ideal health minister
Has an ability to reinvent themselves In November 2001, Dr Michael Wooldridge, Australia’s health minister of nearly six years, retired from politics at the age of 45. In retiring early, Dr Wooldridge fulfilled his own longstanding prediction that the health portfolio would be his political graveyard, and in this he shared the fate of most Australian health ministers over the past 30 years. It seems that, in Australia, there is little chance of l…

Using Oral Language to Learn Acquiring an Understanding of Reading, Writing, Spelling and Punctuation
Many children come to school with a limited understanding of, and experience with, books and reading. Many do not have a clear idea of what 'words' are, nor of 'letters' and 'sounds' in words. Some of the Aboriginal children with whom we were working faced these difficulties. In addition, most of them pronounced certain sounds in nonstandard ways
Exogenous testosterone and social experience each enhance the development of aggressive behavior inCyprinodon variegatus
The combined effects of testosterone and social experience from the time of hatching on development of aggressive behaviors in Cyprinodon variegatus were investigated. Social experience was defined as a rearing condition allowing visual, tactile, chemosensory, and auditory contact with zero, three, or 15 additional conspecifics. Behaviors were videotaped once weekly from 3 weeks to 4 months post-hatching, using the focal animal method, and an eth…

To do so, Soelle inspects alternatives militarism, sexism, a…

A Plea for Medieval Studies
One would think that it was unnecessary to commend the study of history to Catholics, and that they would be quick to recognize the historical action of the Church upon the world of secular society as the chief formative influence in European civilization. Especially interesting would be the study of the "Middle Ages," as those centuries witnessed some of the most specific developments of essentially Christian ideas.By the Norman Conquest the Chu…
