Abstract:

The motivation for creating this thesis was primarily to research and understand if inequality existed for Aboriginal women artists from the state of New South Wales. I produced a documentary where I interviewed six Aboriginal language group women who created art in the state based boundaries of New South Wales.I also conducted a research component around the acquisition of art by the Art Gallery of New South Wales. I collected a lot of data around this and was not surprised to find that there was minimal collection of any women artists from New South Wales. My line of inquiry has established

Abstract:

This study examines how the New South Wales (NSW) club industry attained and retained the privilege to operate gaming machines, and how it has maintained a position of relative advantage over other operators in the gaming industry through favourable government regulation and concessional taxation. This favourable treatment has had a major impact on public policy and government finances. The history over five decades of the club industry’s privileged access to gaming machine operations and concessional tax treatments, serves as background to recent events — an effort in 2003 by the NSW Gover

Abstract:

Women architects are effectively absent from architectural history in Australia. Consulting first the archival record, this thesis establishes the presence of 230 women architects qualified and/or practising in NSW between 1900 and 1960. It then analyses some of these early women architects' achievements and difficulties in the profession, drawing on interviews with 70 practitioners or their friends and family. Finally it offers brief biographical accounts of eight leading early women architects, arguing that their achievements deserve more widespread historical attention in an adjusted canon

Abstract:

The history of housing policy in New South Wales has been one of consistent disengagement of government from issues of low-income housing provision. Characteristically, until the 19405, government responses were dictated from within a laissez-faire liberal framework in which housing provision was best left to the operations of market forces. This impacted severely on the availability of appropriate and affordable housing for low-income people. Insofar as low-income housing policy was addressed at all, it was usually in terms of encouraging people into home ownership. Nevertheless, the pe

Abstract:

The issue of how selected public policies of the NSW Government impacted on the everyday lives of women in Western Sydney during the period 1974-1984 is examined here in terms of class and gender inequalities. Using data from ofﬁcial departmental reports and the empirical investigation of public expenditure on community services, the thesis demonstrates that most often public policies maintained the inequalities of women living in suburban Western Sydney. The sexual division of labour was central to public policies and maintained women as dependent mothers, wives and low paid workers. The home

Abstract:

This research examined women's experiences of depression in the Riverina area of rural NSW, Australia. Using a qualitative methodology based on interviews with 27 women, the study was underpinned by an intersectional feminist lens which was concerned with the multiple meanings of gender, rurality and depression. The study found that difficult relationships, loss, and childhood abuse and violence were frequently a significant part of women's accounts of their depression. Indeed, oppression not depression was found to be a more apt characterisation of many of their life experiences. This thesis

Abstract:

This thesis studies the politicised and contested nature of history within New South Wales’ Schools. History emerged into New South Wales schools in the 18805, amidst extensive criticism that the course would inflame sectarian division between Protestants and Catholics. The type of history that was eventually instated in the Public Instruction Act of 1880 was a triumphant appraisal of British and Australian colonial achievements and has been described as the ‘drum and trumpet’ approach. In the first decade of the twentieth century there was an extensive reform movement in education that was t

Abstract:

The enactment of a Testator’s Family Maintenance Act in 1916 is rightly remembered as a signature achievement of New South Wales’ early feminists, providing protection against the destitution that a cruel will could inflict upon a testator’s family. Yet in the decades before its passage, a challenge to a husband’s testamentary capacity offered an alternative mechanism by which a widow could challenge a will. This thesis explores the stories of the widows who braved the action for testamentary incapacity, in order to recover its social and cultural significance. It identifies the courtroom as a

Health is an organising principle of contemporary neoliberal citizenship, particularly evident in the political rhetoric of individual responsibility articulated around the privatisation of public health and welfare systems.

Abstract:

Hyde Park Asylum for Infirm and Destitute Women, Sydney was the New South Wales government’s first direct initiative in social welfare for the aged with the provision of residential care for women. It was the genesis of a system of destitute asylums (later state hospitals) that lasted for more than a century. For its duration (1862-1886), Hyde Park Asylum was the only one of its type in the colony. This empirical study looks at the day-to-day lives of its inmates at Hyde Park Asylum and follows them to their new home at Newington Asylum on the Parramatta River in 1886. The external and interna

Abstract:

Our stories: women, life and intellectual disability tells part of the life stories of five Australian women with an intellectual disability between the ages of 29 and 52, who live in the suburbs of Sydney. There is an increasing body of work about intellectual disability, however, there is little written about the lives of women with an intellectual disability from their perspective, and even less about what is important to them in their lives. This thesis foregrounds knowledge and voices that are usually ignored within the dominant intellectually-abled culture.

Abstract:

Background: Severe perineal trauma (SPT) (third or fourth degree tears) sustained during vaginal birth, is associated with short and long term physical and psychological morbidities for women. Research conducted nationally and internationally indicates that the incidence of SPT is increasing, which is associated with increased rates of SPT and improved recognition and reporting by health professionals. However despite this, research on women’s experiences of SPT is limited, and the adequacy of support and health services available to women following SPT has not been examined. Developing an und
