Leading community engagement on climate change
Imagine a place where global climate challenges are tackled through the lens of local stories and art. Building on scholarship that frames museums as ‘lifeboats’ and ‘pathways’ through the climate crisis, this article demonstrates the unique strengths of regional institutions: their deep community embeddedness, local knowledge, and capacity for agile, place-based engagement. Regional institutions are closely attuned to the social and ecological s…
Being in and of local communities
In Australia, environmental catastrophe is part of our identity: the country and community have all been shaped by repeated droughts, floods and fires.The experience of the 2019-20 Black Summer bushfires was, however, unprecedented.It destroyed vast swathes of country, impacting places, lives, livelihoods and communities, and its duration and severity caused untold grief.These catastrophic fires occurred in close succession to sustained droughts …
Sounding Out Science
The divergent use of digital technologies provides an important opportunity for students to develop critical and postdigital approaches to learning. Despite the rising accessibility of music technology, creatively composed sound is a relatively underexplored educational tool compared to the musical elements of melody, rhythm, and lyrics. Sound’s ability to transfer spatial and temporal information renders it a transformative tool for teaching and…
Disrupting Museum Authority
Museums are wrestling with their past and exhibitions provide important spaces to create new dialogues and include previously excluded voices. This review examines two exhibitions from 2021 at museums in Sydney, Australia – Unsettled at the Australian Museum and Eucalyptusdom at the nearby Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences – as these exhibits are significant markers of fundamental changes in Australian museum practice. It examines how these mus…

Parental influences on excessive Internet use among adolescents
Purpose Using longitudinal data, this study aims to provide a greater understanding as to how parenting factors, including the employment of various disciplinary techniques, during a young person's early adolescence may contribute to excessive Internet use (EIU) in later adolescence. Design/methodology/approach Employing “Problem Behaviour” theory (PBT) as a guiding framework, this study uses data from the Growing Up in Ireland ’98 Cohort to inve…
Democratising audience experience
The art museum, as observed by Duncan, is a ‘ritual’ space ‘reserved for a special quality of attention’ materialised in a narrow set of acceptable behaviours [Duncan, Carol. 1991. “Art Museums and the Ritual of Citizenship.” In The Poetics and Politics of Museum Display, edited by Ivan Karp and Steven D. Lavine, 88–103. Washington: Smithsonian Institute Press]. In recent decades, under the auspices of the new museology, the ritualised space was …
Collecting French art in the late 1800s at the Art Gallery of New South Wales
From the nineteenth century, Sydney’s Art Gallery of New South Wales has been a marker of cultural ambition in Australia. This paper critically considers five large French paintings purchased at the end of the nineteenth century at significant expense by the gallery. Feted by contemporaries as examples of the French academic style, they formed part of plans to develop a representative collection to further understanding of art in the colony and, …

Colonial Policing and the Transnational Legacy
Suitcases, keys and handkerchiefs
This article examines the particular challenges that are associated with collecting and exhibiting objects to represent immigrant narratives. Everyday objects play a crucial role in migration history and curators need to capitalise on the representational possibilities offered by these seemingly banal objects when conceiving exhibitions. This analysis concentrates on strategies used by Australian museums – from large federal institutions to state…
The Pluralization of High Policing
High policing has long been associated with the preservation and augmentation of state interests by the intelligence community. However, this paradigm can neither be examined, nor theorized, within an exclusively ‘public’ framework; a host of ‘private’ actors must now be acknowledged on this conceptual terrain. Moving beyond well-acknowledged patterns of outsourcing intelligence, this paper brings sharper research attention to transnational secur…
Telling migrant stories in museums in Australia
Much attention in recent museum studies theory has focused on questions and practices of inclusion. The community gallery has been traditionally reserved as a space to engage and actively seek contributions from diverse communities and to open the museum up to new voices. This article considers the community gallery’s current function across different scales of museums in Australia – comparing approaches at the local and state level – where it ha…
Revenue, relevance and reflecting community
Museums are judged not solely on the basis of their exhibition quality and collection care but, within a corporate model, they are also judged on quantitative measures such as audience numbers and, in turn, their financial viability. Programming has, therefore, become a major focus of forward planning and the basis for funding development. Blockbuster exhibitions, strategically placed throughout annual programs, have been a common way to increase…

The transnational security consultancy industry
This article examines state—corporate organizational complexes within the transnational policing sphere. Its specific focus is upon the transnational security consultancy industry and its interaction with state security agencies. Exemplifying the proposed theoretical construct of state—corporate symbiosis, leading firms are held out as key facilitators for this ongoing close association between dominant interests. Their activities reflect how thi…

Eye Spy Private High’
This paper contests traditional analyses of high policing, suggesting that it needs to be decoupled (in theoretical terms) from its umbilical linkage to public actors and the preservation and augmentation of state authority. Arguing that conventional conceptualizations of high policing fail to acknowledge the role of private actors, we adopt the term ‘private high policing’ to more accurately reflect the complexity of this paradigm. In particular…
