Psychic Capital: Its Role in Maintaining Quebec and Other Francophone Identities
This article will demonstrate the value of Boulding’s concept of psychic capital in explaining the survival of Quebec and other North American francophone communities where French is the first language. Psychic capital holds that while in an economic unit there will be a store of financial capital which is necessary for the continued existence of an economic unit, also in a human community there is a need for a reserve of psychic capital that is …
Psychological Aspects of Cultural Sustainability: Several Case Studies
The sustainability of the culture of a community is not just a question of its intrinsic value; it can also be a question of life and death. Physical health is closely related to mental health, which consists in a level of collective mental state, such as elation, depression, energy or apathy. The mental state is related to a sense of coherence, as Antonovsky called it, and culture is the major source of the sense of coherence, in the form of ide…
The Quiet Revolution in Australian Higher Education
Quiet revolution is a term that was used to describe the fundamental transformation of Quebec society in the 1960s: a profound and permanent process that took place with very little violence or other outward signs of resistance.

This paper exami…

Language grief can over time resolve itself, as it has done in Nova Scotia, Indonesia or…

On elections, voting and participation: The origins of the South Australian DLP: A documentary note
To summarise, there were five interesting features of the election: (i) the size of the first preference movement from the major parties to the Australian Democrats; (ii) the unexpected lack of any significant swing to Labor in the two‐party preferred vote; (iii) the notable uniformity of the results from state to state; (iv) such swing to Labor as did occur was mainly in seats already held by Labor and in urban areas; and (v) the results demonst…
