Abstract:

This thesis presents a comparative analysis of the operation and significance of elections in the British colonies of Jamaica, New South Wales and the Cape, from 1849-1860, with a particular focus on the creation and reconstruction of ideas of politically-entitled British subjecthood over this period. Beginning with the first elections under a system of representative government in New South Wales and the Cape, and the early elections of the post-emancipation period in Jamaica, it questions how residents within these sites engaged with elections via the cultures of the canvass, public meetings

Abstract:

Australian Constitutional referendums have been part of the Australian political system since federation. Up to the year 1999 (the time of the last referendum in Australia), constitutional change in Australia does not have a good history of acceptance. Since 1901, there have been 44 proposed constitutional changes with eight gaining the required acceptance according to section 128 of the Australian Constitution. In the modern era since 1967, there have been 20 proposals over seven referendum votes for a total of four changes. Over this same period, there have been 13 federal general elections

Abstract:

This thesis is focused on Australian citizens who are not interested in politics and finds that there are at least twenty percent of Australians who are politically uninterested. The major finding is that uninterested voters determined the outcome of the 1987, 1993 and 2010 elections in favour of Labor. They also decide around eight House of Representative seats at each election. We are all affected as major political parties focus on uninterested swinging voters in order to attract their attention resulting in fringe issues hijacking politics.

Voting is a fundamental decision making instrument in any consensus-based society. It is employed in various applications from student body elections, reality television shows, shareholder meetings, to national elections. With the motivation of better eciency, scalability, speed, and lower cost, voting is currently shifting from paper-based to the use of electronic medium. This is while aiming to achieve better security, such that voting result reflects true opinions of the voters.

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis is to test a number of hypotheses concerning the electoral impact of tax by undertaking a historical and statistical analysis of the relevant evidence in Sweden, a high tax country, and Australia, a low tax country, over the period 1958 to 1988. My results give some support to all the major hypotheses tested: Sweden's higher tax levels were associated with higher tax aversion than in Australia; the largest tax rises were associated with incumbent governments losing votes at the next election; and the introduction of major new taxes was also associated with inc

Abstract:

This thesis in political communication details a qualitative investigation into how citizens receive and make sense of political discourse in a twenty-first century democracy. Recognising criticism of the national discourse as ‘dumbed down’, it explores with a cohort of Australian citizens what meaning they receive from contemporary discourse and how it affects their engagement with democracy. The project employs an innovative method of recruiting participants at a polling booth in Australia’s most typical suburb, followed a month later by same day data collection from three wide-scope groups

Abstract:

Discussions of election campaigning and strategy often focus on winning. Researchers and practitioners alike aim to tease out the campaign tools and methods that help parties pull in votes, while positing a desire to win as the rationale behind almost every campaign decision. But is winning the only goal that parties hold when embarking on an election campaign? Drawing on qualitative interviews with more than 50 representatives from 13 Australian parties, this research finds that parties actually articulate a broader range of goals, including taking (or retaining) majority government, preservi

Abstract:

Electoral boundaries in South Australia are currently a contentious issue in politics, with allegations that the current boundaries are unfair. South Australia has fairness provisions that are unique in Australia governing the boundaries of electoral districts. However, in three of the last six state elections, the objective of fairness as characterised by these provisions has not been met. Boundaries are drawn by the independent Electoral Districts Boundaries Commission, and are revised after every general election in South Australia. The Commission's method uses estimates for the voting beh

Abstract:

University of Technology Sydney. Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences.<br>In recent years an extensive body of media research has accumulated on the representation of immigrant, refugee and asylum seeker (IRAS) debates in western liberal democracies. This research touches on the work of two structuralists, Propp and Levi-Strauss, to suggest that a grand narrative became instrumental in Australian press coverage of IRAS boat arrivals during the federal election campaigns of 1977, 2001 and 2013. It argues that the news narrative of the ‘boat’ is fundamentally a sequence of cycles between binary e

Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)<br>What makes a political speech persuasive? Which approaches can be used to understand the mechanisms of strategic language in political speechmaking, and determine their influence? Political actors in all political systems from despots to democrats use political rhetoric in many aspects of their role. These rhetorical activities are so central to the way we understand politics that they have become an integral part of the way we are governed. Since politics involves the contest of ideas, beliefs and meanings, analysis should focus on argumentat

Abstract:

Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)<br>Policy regarding people arriving by boat in order to seek asylum, was a key focus of political discourse during the 2013 Australian Federal Election campaign. Evening television news reports on the unfolding election revealed a bipartisan push for increasingly punitive approaches to the treatment of people seeking asylum. Distinctive rhetorical techniques drawing on several problematising narratives aligned with asylum seeker discourses were central to exclusionary arguments made by Australian Labor Party and Liberal-National Coalition politic

Abstract:

Purpose – Many theoretical financial theories attempt to explain the behaviour of stocks and the structure of their returns, namely the Portfolio Theory, the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH), and Behavioural Finance. These theories, however, have provided incomplete and contradictory explanations regarding stock market anomalies. The aim of this research is to analyse the theory of anomalies and develop a comprehensive theoretical model based on the extant financial theories to develop an improved explanation about stock market anomalies.
