Do skills enable the reduction of emissions from household energy use? Findings from a survey of households in rural India
We use new survey data from 1,203 households in rural Eastern India to estimate cross-sectional models of overall energy use and embedded emissions. Findings indicate that the primary driver of household energy use is household size and affluence. This is unsurprising and consistent with findings from the engineering literature on energy demand. However, there is also a substantial and significant moderating influence of skills on energy use. For…
Balancing livestock production and environmental outcomes in northern Australia’s tropical savanna under global change
Livestock production is an integral part of the global food system and the livelihoods of local people, but it also raises questions of environmental sustainability due to issues such as greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, biodiversity decline, land degradation, and water use. Further challenges to extensive livestock systems may arise from changes in climate and the global economy (particularly variation in prices for livestock and carbon). However,…
Bloody Orkney? A comparison of the perceptions held by sailors and the reality of leisure and recreational opportunities at Scapa Flow during the First World War
Scapa Flow became the primary naval base for the main Royal Navy fleet during the First World War. The ‘newness’ of Scapa as a naval base meant that it lacked any of the leisure and recreational opportunities that the ‘home’ naval ports, such as Portsmouth, offered. This led to Scapa gaining a reputation as being a poor location for sailors to be stationed. This article examines whether Scapa Flow’s poor reputation with sailors was justified. It …
Strong and Deadly Futures
School-based programs can effectively prevent substance use; however, systematic reviews and consultation with stakeholders identified a need for effective, culturally inclusive programs for Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander (hereafter Aboriginal) youth. This paper describes the development of Strong & Deadly Futures , a six-lesson, curriculum-aligned wellbeing and substance use prevention program that was designed for, and with, the Abori…
No more ‘voices from down south’
This study examines the interaction between audience and producer in the production of local content by Indigenous radio stations in remote areas of far north Queensland, Australia. In the past three years, these stations have changed from being primarily carriers of content from Indigenous and non-Indigenous radio networks in other parts of Australia (from media organizations located ‘down south’ in major cities) to a network of stations broadca…
Celebrating Odin Teatret and Holstebro
Odin Teatret, one of Europe’s oldest and most successful independent theatre groups, marked its 50th anniversary in the summer of 2014 with a celebration that included 500 invited guests and the company’s host community of Holstebro, Denmark
Embedding research into practice through innovation and creativity
This paper explores ways in which IRISS (Institute for Research and Innovation in Social Services) promotes the delivery of cost effective social services in Scotland that support the achievement of positive outcomes. The approach to evidence-informed practice is characterised as four pillars of activity. The first focuses on improving awareness and access to evidence. The second refers to strengthening the evidence base and is discussed in the c…
Connecting, Informing and Empowering Our Communities
This study provides an insight into the role and functions of a remote Indigenous radio station that broadcasts to five communities in the Northern Peninsula Area (NPA) of Cape York, Queensland. It evaluates the activities of NPA Radio in the context of previous research that investigates how community-based media forms empower and inform specific sectors of society. Using field research, the study reveals five key themes relating to the role of …
Cultural policy in South Korea
The public policy narrative in South Korea as ‘having to be multicultural’ due to a falling birth rate and a demand for labour is linked to an often fragmented and yet highly centralized policy orientation. This institutional limit is complicated by competing narratives on multiculturalism, which often reinforce cultural segregation and hierarchy while simultaneously advocating for select migrant groups a policy of assimilation usually as ‘multic…
A short history of national identification numbering in Iceland
Iceland created national identification numbers in the early 1950s as part of the process of automating civil registration. Numbers were based on a personʹs birthdate.In 1959, an additional “name number” for each person was created, based on the position of the personʹs name in alphabetical order. After Iceland began to issue personal identity cards showing the name number in 1965, the practice of using the name number as a unique personal identi…
Explaining Howard's Success
In this paper we re-evaluate explanations, derived from the Australian Election Study surveys, for the Coalition's winning office in 1996 and holding it ever since. We show that, in occupational terms, electoral support for the major parties is less distinct than it was in the Hawke and Keating years. We document the shift to the Coalition, net of other factors, among older respondents, those with little education, and Catholics. And we show the …
One Nation's Electoral Support
While acknowledging that our study represents “a considerable advance on other studies of One Nation, its electoral support and social foundations“, and “correctly identifies the importance of conservative social attitudes of One Nation supporters“, Turnbull and Wilson take issue with three things: one of our key findings, based on the 1998 Australian Election Study (AES), that the vote for One Nation was driven by attitudes to immigration (among…
One Nation's Electoral Support
This paper does three things. First, it offers a critique of the academic literature on the One Nation vote, focusing on the limitations of the work of political geographers and the methodological shortcomings of survey researchers. Second, it re‐examines data from the 1998 Australian Election Study in order to explore the demographic and attitudinal forces that both drove the One Nation vote and distinguished it from the votes secured by the Lab…

How Nations Choose Product Standards and Standards Change Nations
Nations use product standards, and manipulate them, for reasons othen than practical use or safety. The Soviets once cultivated standards to isolate themselves. In the United States, codes and standards are often used to favor home industries over external competition, and to favor some producers over others. Krislov compares and contrasts the United States, the EC, the forner Eastern bloc, and Japan, to link standard choice with political styles…
The Actor's Way
Music While You Work’
Teenage women have been particularly disadvantaged by the collapse of the youth labour market over the last 20 years. This article outlines the dimension of that problem, comparing the position young women held in the teenage labour market in the late 1940s with their position today. While the 1950s and 1960s saw growth in some areas of paid work for teenage women, the 1970s marked a watershed. With the major exception of saleswork in the retail …

Class Memory
Images of society are not only a product of present milieux, but of present milieux interpreted in the light of past experience and expectations for the future, individual and collective. As Elizabeth Bott commented, '... when an individual talks about class he is trying to say something, in a symbolic form, about his experiences of power and prestige in his actual membership groups and social relationships, both past and present'... Images of so…
Education, Class and Culture
The ethnographies of youth culture and schooling produced by the Birmingham Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies and its followers had a major impact on educational sociology during the late 1970s and 1980s. Despite this invaluable contribution, important theoretical and methodological problems emerged in their treatment of class and culture. In particular, the untheorised presence of the ‘new middle class’ and a confusing notion of ‘dominant…
Beyond Industrial Sociology
Life History Meets Economic Theory
Life history methodology has undergone a major revival in the last two decades but its impact on economic theory has been minimal. The dominance of quantitative methodologies within economics has precluded the contribution which qualitative approaches, such as life history method, can make to questions of human agency and individual decision making. Three case studies of working-class women in a local labour market are used to explore these theme…

Eastern and Western Influences on Performer Training at Eugenio Barba's Odin Teatret
The Odin Teatret, which continues to produce new and exciting works, was originally formed in Oslo, Norway, in 1964. In 1966 the company moved to Holstebro, a small town near the west coast of Denmark, where it has been based ever since. In its 23-year history the company has mounted productions ranging from intimate studio pieces, for audiences as small as sixty or less, to huge street spectacles encapsulating whole villages at a time. The Odin …
