Framing collaborative processes of digital transformation in cultural organisations
At a time when it is particularly urgent to identify models of intersection across the digital and cultural sector to respond to an emergent funding and policy environment, this article contributes to a body of scholarly work around designing digital interventions for museums by identifying the role of cultural content in shaping design spaces for collaboration. The context of the article is a research project that brought together magical realis…
Co-Producing Collections
In this article, we describe findings and methodological implications from a research through design (RtD) process conducted as part of larger research project in Istanbul, Turkey. The project aimed to identify and valorise alternative heritage narratives from communities around Istanbul concerning a UNESCO heritage site, The Theodosian Land Walls. Following a large-scale ethnographic phase, we produced and deployed ‘cultural probes’: sets of cre…

Drinking Cultures” in University Residential Colleges
Young people’s heavy alcohol use has been widely linked to their “drinking cultures.” Recent scholarly commentary, however, suggests that prevailing conceptualizations of drinking culture, including those in “public health-oriented” research, tend to oversimplify the complexities involved. This article contributes to the conceptual clarification and development of young people’s “drinking cultures.” We provide a case study of a highly publicized …
Just choose the easy option’
Previous research into young people’s drinking behaviour has studied how social practices influence their actions and how they negotiate drinking-related identities. Here, adopting the perspective of discursive psychology we examine how, for young people, social influences are bound up with issues of drinking and of identity. We conducted 19 focus groups with undergraduate students in Australia aged between 18 and 24 years. Thematic analysis of p…
Social Stuff” and Institutional Micro-Processes
The literature on alcohol consumption among university and residential college students in Australia and comparable countries shows a high incidence of heavy and/or frequent drinking. In this article, we report the findings from a study on alcohol consumption among undergraduate university students living in residential colleges in Australia. The aim of the study was to examine residents’ alcohol use as part of a broader set of institutional prac…
Null By Morse
Null By Morse is an installation artwork that incorporates a military signaling lamp and smartphones. A series of Morse messages is transmitted automatically by the signal lamp. The messages are drawn from the history of Morse and telegraphy. A custom app for iPhone and Android uses the phone's camera to identify the changing light levels of the lamp and the associated timings. The app then decodes the Morse and displays the message on the screen…
Health and community services for trafficked women
The trafficking of women has attracted considerable international and national policy attention, particularly since the UN Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children (2000), of which the Australian Government has been a signatory since 2005. The provision of health and community services for trafficked women is a central feature of this Protocol, but in Australia service provision is made diffic…
Gendered organizational dynamics
Australian governments have reported an impending 'crisis' with workforce shortages in the health sector expected to deepen over the next decade. The allied health professions, however, have barely rated a mention despite the fact their retention rates are low and they are expected to play an expanded and more preventive role in the future. This article examines current Australian public policy approaches to the allied health professions in relat…
Gender and Health Inequalities
The subject of gender and health inequalities is contested territory in health policy, research and practice. Yet there is a dominant approach which I describe as a form of technocratic rationality. Its application imposes significant limitations because it represents the problem of gender and health in terms of measurable sex differences in relation to health service access and health outcomes. In doing so, it fails to address and explain the so…
Feminine Sexual Subjectivities
The relationship between discourse, sex and the body has attracted sustained interest from scholars in sociology and cultural studies over the last 20 years. It is only recently, however, that sociological analyses of sexuality have begun to explore the specificity of the body and its relationship to human agency. This work suggests that, far from serving as a passive surface upon which sexual scripts are inscribed, the body in sexual action is i…
Health inequity and its social determinants
In 2005, the World Health Organization (WHO) established the Commission on the Social Determinants of Health. It is to produce its final report in May 2008, identifying actions to address the vast health disparities that have accompanied global economic expansion and widespread political turmoil. The Commission and its anticipated report are a major part of a new research and policy approach committed to the advancement of global health equity. T…
Gender Politics and Public Policy Making
The purpose of this paper is to stimulate a re-envisioning of gender politics in public policy making by applying a new approach to understanding them. Our approach is based on, and illustrated by, a study of gender dynamics in policy-making processes in the NSW public sector in Australia. The study draws on theoretical developments in the sociological study of gender arrangements in large organisations. Central to the analysis is the concept of …

Injured workers' experiences of the workers' compensation claims process
This paper reports on the results of a recent qualitative study of injured workers' experiences of the claims process in NSW. It provides an analysis that suggests that recent legislative amendments to improve the process have been of limited value. The paper argues that the obstacles to reform derive from the institutional practices associated with the day-to-day management and administration of the claims process. While these practices are info…

What does 'gender and health' mean
‘Gender and health’ is a contested concept whose various meanings have evolved in the course of the emergence and development of social movements concerned with the health of men and women. At the heart of the meaning of ‘gender and health’ advanced by the women’s health movement is the idea of a relationship of social and political inequality between men and women in the field of medically dominated health services. Population health discourse, …
Understanding Men's Health and Illness
Men's health has emerged as an important public concern that may require new kinds of healthcare interventions and increased resources. Considerable uncertainty and confusion surround prevailing understandings of men's health, particularly those generated by media debate and public policy, and health research has often operated on oversimplified assumptions about men and masculinity. A more useful way of understanding men's health is to adopt a g…

Social isolation in old age
This paper presents findings from a qualitative study of social isolation in the context of service provision to older people. It draws on in-depth interviews with 18 Australian aged care practitioners about their perceptions of social isolation among their clients. The findings show that service providers experience significant levels of concern and frustration and a sense of powerlessness in meeting the needs of such clients. In analysing these…
