Download or read book White Dust Black Death written by Peter Webster and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: White Dust Black Death is primarily focused on the Baryulgil Asbestos Mine (Northern NSW) owned and operated by Asbestos Mines Pty Ltd, a former subsidiary of James Hardie Industries NV. Secondary focus is the cultural interface between the dominant 'white' Australian society and Indigenous Australian cultures. Tertiary focus is upon endemic/institutionalised racism, both black and white. This book is positioned within cross-cultural and indigenous studies, racial theory and racism, labour studies, history, anthropology and sociology. It is a subjective thesis, examining a common series of threads in a cultural tapestry, which seeks to unite, inform and respectfully interact with Indigenous Australians. It is written in accord with the Japanangka Teaching and Research Paradigm, the creation and vision of the author's late elder (adoptive) brother, Palawa Elder Japanangka Professor E. West.

Download or read book Memory in Place written by Cameo Dalley and published by ANU Press. This book was released on 2023-11-23 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Memory in Place brings together Indigenous and non-Indigenous scholars and practitioners grappling with the continued potency of memories and experiences of colonialism. While many of these conversations have taken place on a national stage, this collection returns to the rich intimacy of the local. From Queensland’s sweeping Gulf Country, along the shelly beaches of south Sydney, Melbourne’s city gardens and the rugged hills of South Australia, through Central Australia’s dusty heart and up to the majestic Kimberley, the collection charts how interactions between Indigenous people, settlers and their descendants are both remembered and forgotten in social, political, and cultural spaces. It offers uniquely diverse perspectives from a range of disciplines including history, anthropology, memory studies, archaeology, and linguistics from both established and emerging scholars; from Indigenous and non-Indigenous contributors; and from academics as well as museum and cultural heritage practitioners. The collection locates some of the nation’s most pressing political issues with attention to the local, and the ethics of commemoration and relationships needed at this scale. It will be of interest to those who see the past as intimately connected to the future.
Download or read book In Search of Corporate Accountability written by Stefan H. C. Lo and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is currently much debate over corporate social responsibility on whether business companies should look beyond shareholder primacy and profit maximisation to act for the benefit of others. It is generally agreed, however, even amongst advocates of shareholder primacy, that profit maximisation should only be achieved within the framework of external laws regulating the conduct of individuals and companies generally. If the objectives of such external laws are not to be defeated, then it is important for controllers of companies to ensure corporate compliance with the law. Despite this, controversies have arisen where corporate enterprises may have improperly flouted or evaded liabilities under the law. Against this background, it is argued in this book that it is necessary to ensure that responsible persons are accountable under the law so as to promote compliance with legal regulations in the corporate context. Individuals or entities behind the company who are responsible for wrongful conduct should be held liable under the law – whether it be tort law or statutory regulation. Some counter that the corporate law principles of limited liability and separate entity have the primacy to effectively shield those behind the company from at least certain types of liability. However, it is undesirable for corporate insiders to hide behind the company to avoid tortious or statutory liabilities. This book adopts a theory of interactive (corrective) justice that is applied in the corporate context to justify the imposition of civil liability on responsible directors, shareholders and other corporate participants under Anglo-Australian law. In light of this theoretical framework, possibilities of rectifying deficiencies in the law through judicial development of existing legal principles are examined. To the extent that appropriate directions in the law cannot be achieved via judicial development of the law, the book also investigates possibilities of statutory reform.
Download or read book Public Health Practice in Australia written by Sally Fawkes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-16 with total page 809 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public Health Practice in Australia offers a thorough introduction to what public health practitioners do, and the 'effort' involved in improving the health of the public. This second edition has been fully revised and updated in line with current policies and practice. It highlights common threads that underlie seemingly disparate activities, ideas and entities that comprise the organised effort of public health practice. The emphasis is on securing and maintaining the conditions in society that enable people to live healthy and fulfilling lives. The authors examine the impact of historical, social, economic, environmental and political factors on the health of individuals, communities and populations. Taking an applied, multidisciplinary approach, they outline the strategies and tools that public health practitioners use to improve health outcomes: identifying infrastructure needs in the workforce, public and private sector organisations, and in regulation; gathering, analysing and using health data; applying interventions in health policy, provision of health services and health promotion. Public Health Practice in Australia draws on current international and Australian research and the interwoven case studies make the theories and concepts come alive. It is a valuable resource for students and professionals across the health sciences including public health, medicine, environmental health, health promotion, health information management and health administration. 'The book is impressive in the completeness, clarity and consistency of the material covered, and for the way in which many of the theoretical issues are related to current practice. An extremely useful and valuable reference for both students and practitioners alike.' - Thomas Tenkate, Environmental Health
