Abstract:

During 1996 and 1997 an Australian parliamentary committee conducted an inquiry into greater autonomy for Torres Strait Islanders, but by 2000 the future of the issue seemed unclear. This thesis explores what the notion of autonomy has meant for Torres Strait and for Torres Strait Islanders in the past, and what it might mean in the future. The thesis uses material from the period before European contact to just after the end of the parliamentary inquiry. ¶ Several analytical tools were utilised to explore the concept of autonomy. Major among these to propose and then analyse the relationship

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis is to examine and analyse the scope and extent of judicial involvement in international commercial arbitration, with specific emphasis on its consequences for Iran. As an alternative form of dispute resolution under the jurisdiction of national courts, arbitration involves the establishment of a private jurisdiction over disputes, and is implemented through the creation of commercial contracts that derive their authority from the parties’ free will and autonomy. However, in reality, arbitration is not a separate and free-standing system of justice. It is a system est

Abstract:

Reconciliation of human plurality, with the commonality requisite for egalitarian political order, is arguably the central question confronting political thought today. The thesis is a response to Hannah Arendts insight that in the wake of the twentieth-century demise of metaphysical ultimates, we must affirm human capacity for autonomous judgment as fundamental to sustaining a world fit for human habitation. It consists of a theory of autonomy (or practical reason) designed to fully address pluralism, historicism and the critique of identity/difference. In the light of Onora ONeills c

Abstract:

Contrary to popular belief, teenage mothers are a declining proportion of birthing women; however they receive much negative public attention. Of particular public concern is the high cost of supporting teenage mothers, in terms of financial, health and welfare resources. Historically, the typical founding mother of white Australia was single, but post-war changes in the family structure incorporated the expectation that children be born into two-parent households with the male as the breadwinner. Policy changes in the seventies saw the introduction of the Sole Parents Pension which meant that

Abstract:

In recent years, the Australian Government's (Commonwealth) relationship to universities has become one of greater involvement as political circles recognise the escalation in the significance of higher education as a key determinant in Australia's economic, social, cultural, and intellectual development. The increasing role of the Commonwealth in Australian universities is largely a consequence of this recognition, but it is also due in part to changes in the way governments approach the public sector and publicly funded institutions.

Abstract:

The nature of human well-being has been debated in psychological research since the beginning of the study of human behaviour. Mechanistic perspectives regard humans to be independent objects motivated by external contingencies, with needs to be both self sufficient and self-enhancing. Organismic perspectives describe humans as having innate self-organisational tendencies, which partly depend on qualities of relationships with others. Basic needs for well-being include being self-determined and socially integrated. Both perspectives claim empirical support. Drawing on Self-Determination Theory

The basic philosophy of shared governance includes the right for staff nurses to practice in an environment that allows participation in the decision making process at all levels of the organization.

Child malnutrition is a problem in all countries and centers in poorer communities. Biological and socioeconomic factors alike contribute to malnutrition with recent studies focusing on aspects of maternal autonomy as an influencing factor. In this study, maternal autonomy is defined as the independence in her actions and control over resources a mother has within her household and is made up of several factors, including decision-making power, opinion of domestic abuse, and financial independence.

This thesis examines some of the implications for social policy of an account of human nature frequently associated with liberal political theory. Taking as its starting point the claim that the objectives of social policy are contested, it seeks to develop an account of autonomy that will serve as a neutral 'organizational principle' around which to construct social policy. A particular version of personal autonomy is developed and defended against both abstract Kantian moral autonomy, and the individualism often associated with liberal theories.

This thesis seeks to clarify the role that democratic decentralisation reforms play in dynamics of state building in developing societies where states are often qualified as weak. Within the literature, on natural resource management, democratic decentralisation is seen to either erode public authority in favour of non-state actors, or to strengthen it, as a repertoire of domination hiding an illegitimate recentralisation of control. In the light of these contradictory statements, I propose positing the exercise of public authority as an empirical question. Situating my work within geography a

In this thesis it is argued that while the concept of freedom of religion or belief itself is opaque and difficult to define, the right to religious freedom must contain certain basic factors – most importantly the right to individual (religious) autonomy. The individual autonomy approach is seen here as providing the necessary rationale for the protection of freedom of religion or belief. This rationale is not cemented in stone in the practice of the Convention and this has caused the Court to lose its focus on individual freedom. It is a dangerous tendency. It allows the focus to be placed o

Abstract:

La prescription extinctive a fait l’objet de nombreuses études en droit privé ou en droit pénal. Elle constitue à l’inverse un angle mort de la recherche en droit public. La réforme opérée en matière civile par la loi du 17 juin 2008, ainsi que le renouveau contemporain du débat sur l’existence d’une théorie générale des obligations publiques, justifient pourtant une analyse approfondie en droit public. Prenant ses racines dans le Code civil, la prescription extinctive tient une place non négligeable dans les rapports obligataires des personnes publiques. La multiplication des prescriptions pr

Abstract:

La subsidiarité joue, dans le registre du droit public européen, sur deux paliers : celui de la répartition des compétences entre l'Etat et les collectivités territoriales et celui des relations entre les pouvoirs publics et les personnes privées. Applicable à la répartition des compétences entre les autorités centrales et décentralisées d'un Etat, la subsidiarité territoriale est susceptible de justifier la politique de décentralisation et les transferts de compétences subséquents, et de renforcer ainsi l'autonomie locale. Notre thèse cherche à vérifier cette hypothèse, dans le contexte engen

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which factors influencing cognitive autonomy differed for "identified" and "not identified" troubled adolescents. One hundred and nineteen residential treatment youth aged 14 to 18 and 13 7 public high school adolescents were compared using the Cognitive Autonomy Self Evaluation (CASE) inventory, which examines five elements of cognitive autonomy including evaluative thinking, voicing opinions, decision making, self-assessing, and comparative validation. Findings reveal that generally cognitive autonomy did not differ according to troubled

Abstract:

The No Child Left Behind Act directs states to establish annual assessments to measure student mastery of state-established learning expectations. American public school students in grades 3 through 8, with few exceptions, take a series of state-mandated assessments each year; students in grades 10 through 12 take a series of state-mandated assessments at least once during those years. NCLB and state laws mandate considerable consequences if students do not perform well on the assessments. Research suggests that the standardized tests associated with NCLB affect curricula and pedagogy. What is

Abstract:

In an attempt to help middle school art students to be more engaged and have more ownership over their learning experience, the researcher, who is also the classroom teacher, created and implemented student-directed and teacher-supported strategies. Using a design-based research methodology, the author conducted a qualitative study over a twelve-week period investigating the affordances or limitations of implementing more student-directed strategies. The results showed three categories of student responses. The students that were ready and capable to direct their own learning excelled, guiding
