Abstract:

This thesis aimed to assess the population demographics of Southern right whales (SRW) Eubalaena australis, in South Australia. A combination of monitoring techniques were employed between 2014 and 2016 in the form of land and vessel based count and photo identification surveys. The study uses current and historical data (1991-2016) to assess distribution, abundance and life histories of SRW at two wintering aggregations in South Australia. Results provide information for recovery assessment and conservation management.

Abstract:

This paper analyses the interactions between Australian mainstream media and social media political influencers and how these interactions amplify ideological misinformation. Social media, particularly YouTube, is increasingly a primary source of news and information for people, principally in the younger 18 – 35-year demographic. Yet while social media has opened up horizontal networks of mass self-communication that allow anyone with an internet to communicate on a mass scale, it has also precipitated a significant rise in the dissemination of reactionary right and extremist messages.

This thesis aims to provide a detailed analysis of the postwar movements active on the far right fringes of Australian society between 1945 and 2001.

The study emphasizes the longevity of right wing extremist discourses linked mainly to ideologies that drew upon fundamentalist Christian conceptions of history and politics.

Abstract:

The history of legal liability for psychiatric injury caused by negligence has been marked by judges taking different approaches, some applying general principles while others have taken a more pragmatic and arbitrary approach due to concerns including the risk of unlimited liability. This thesis applies Ernest Weinrib's and Allan Beever's corrective justice theories of negligence to such claims and suggests an approach to the duty of care which demonstrates that a choice does not need to be made between a principled but unlimited and unworkable approach on the one hand, and a clear and predic

Abstract:

In the contemporary political era, ‘populist’ parties have experienced a heightened degree of electoral prominence and success throughout a great number of Western liberal democracies. In particular, populist radical right parties have been especially successful, increasing their support and rising from the political fringes to holding positions of power. As these parties settle into being a permanent fixture of contemporary politics, it is necessary to better understand how they function. Specifically, the thesis contends that the role populism plays within populist radical right parties is n

This thesis evaluates the policy of mandatory detention for asylum seekers maintained by successive Australian governments against several core liberal principles.

The increase of buyer-driven supply chains, outsourcing and other forms of non-traditional employment has resulted in challenges for labour market regulation. One business model which has created substantial regulatory challenges is supply chains. The supply chain model involves retailers purchasing products from brand corporations who then outsource the manufacturing of the work to traders who contract with factories or outworkers who actually manufacture the clothing and textiles. This business model results in time and cost pressures being pushed down the supply chain which has resulted

An historical evolution of racism is outlined, showing that from Colonial history emerged Colonial racism, which regarded 'natives' as an inferior race destined to serve as a cheap source of labour for European colonists.

The relationship between the common law of Canada and Australia and Indigenous peoples has been one plagued by the logic of dispossession and domination.

In their respective attempts to address their own colonial histories, the Canadian and Australian courts have both begun to recognize the rights and title of Indigenous peoples to their traditional land-bases.

The nature of the human brain has preoccupied philosophers and scientists for centuries.

The right hemisphere apparently assumed responsibility for spacial, holistic processes, while the left hemisphere processed analytical, sequential tasks.

The knowledge thus produced constructs children as incomplete beings, vulnerable and unable to understand significant issues such as those associated with parental separation.
