WSWS Australian rural students face severe disadvantage By Warwick Doolan and Erika Zimmer 6 February 2002 Use this version to print Send this link by email Email the author World Socialist Web Site Overall, rural and remote students were far less likely to complete even the compulsory years of schooling. In Mosman and Ku-ring-gai, affluent suburbs in northern Sydney, 97.3 percent of 16-year-olds attended school, compared to 40.4 percent in the Kimberley region of Western Australian, 46.9 percent in southern Tasmania or 52.6 percent in south-west and central Queensland. High school completion rates showed variations for urban, rural and remote students, at 67 percent, 63 percent and 54 percent respectively. When broken down into states, even wider gaps emerged. For example in Victoria, the highest metropolitan score recorded was 81.5 percent, compared to rural Gippsland, which scored 64.4 percent. Disturbing inequality When specific groups were looked at, such as Aboriginal children, the levels of inequality were even more polarised with only 39.7 percent of Aboriginal girls and 28.2 percent of Aboriginal boys participating in the two post-compulsory years of schooling, let alone completing high school.

A Paper from the Museums Australia National Conference 2002 Adelaide The South Australian Museum's Aboriginal Cultures Gallery: a political, historical and spatial reading? Steve Hemming March 2002 It is a problem of how non-Aboriginal people and institutions relate to Aboriginal people and communities. The fundamental consideration driving change in these social relations must be the extent to which they empower us Aboriginal people to define who we are and enhance how we communicate our experience through our symbolic products (Ian Anderson 1995: 40). Until museums do more than consult (often after the curatorial vision is firmly in place), until they bring a wider range of historical experiences and political agendas into the actual planning of exhibits and the control of museums collections, they will be perceived as merely paternalistic by people whose contact history with museums has been one of exclusion and condescension (James Clifford 1997: 448). Richard West, the Director of the National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI), part of the Smithsonian Institution, recently presented a paper in the South Australian Museum's Pacific Gallery entitled, 'American Museums in the 21st Century: By Whose Authority?'. This question is equally relevant for Australian museums in contemporary Australia, and it makes a good starting point for an examination of the South Australian Museum's Australian Aboriginal Cultures Gallery (AACG). In his paper West outlined the process undertaken by the NMAI in its exhibition development. Indigenous creativity was included right from the conceptual beginnings of the process. He told us that:

Journal of the Oral History Association of Australia , No. 19, 1997 excerpt one Along with the notions of transported and transformed heritage must be included the issue of globalisation of world values and the homogenising of the character of places. When migrants came to Australia in the 1950s, Australia was culturally different from the countries of origin. Since the 1980s and 1990s, migrants arriving in Australia have tended to find many aspects of Australia similar to the countries they have left. The ways in which global capital and the media have impacted upon most large cities in the world has resulted in superficial appearances of similarity. This has removed the need for migrant groups to encode their culture in shared public places in Australia. The homogenising of contemporary world culture thus heightens the heritage significance of those migrant places created in the 1950s and 1960s when cultural differences were strong. Perhaps the major influence on migrant place values is the process of migration itself. The cultural values associated with the pioneering spirit, the enterprising ethos and its associated hard work, and the humiliations experienced under assimilation policies are some of the critical experiences. An understanding of the heritage significance of migration lies in the stories of these experiences. The importance of oral histories in migrant heritage cannot be stressed too strongly and many stories are yet to be told. They are spoken about within different migrant groups, but often in languages other than English. Sometimes they are not spoken about at all and the children of some migrant parents are brought up as Australians with no cultural connection to the country of their parents. It is only with the recording and discussion of the stories associated with migration that the rich encoding of migrant heritage places can be understood by the wider population.

Contact us OPINION back PRINT-FRIENDLY VERSION EMAIL THIS STORY Kevin Donnelly: Ideology at public expense May 03, 2004 JUDGING by the hostile and often hysterical reaction to the Prime Minister's comments earlier this year about why parents choose non-government schools over government schools, one could be forgiven for thinking that it must have been a very scathing attack. In fact, John Howard's remarks are perfectly justifiable. On being asked to comment on the reasons for the growth in non-government school enrolments, he suggested that many parents "feel that government schools have become too politically correct and too values-neutral". He's right. Evidence to support his critique is not difficult to find. The sad reality is that Australian schools, especially those controlled by government, have suffered a range of educational fads that have led to a politically correct and dumbed-down education system. A federally funded project looking at assessment and reporting discovered that, as a result of schools adopting non-graded, non-competitive assessment, many parents are also worried that schools fail to honestly report on student achievement.

Culture Specific Diseases T here are some diseases that have very limited distributions around the world due to the fact that they are caused by unique combinations of environmental circumstances and cultural practices. These are generally referred to as culture specific diseases or culture bound syndromes . Some cause relatively minor health problems while others are very serious and can even be fatal. An example of a relatively harmless culture specific medical condition is "rave rash" in contemporary England. This afflicts young women who go to "raves", or large-scale pop music dance parties that go on all night long. Aggressive dance motions without wearing a bra sometimes leads to a painful rash on their nippleshence "rave rash." K uru is a fatal culture specific disease of the brain and nervous system that was found among the South For people of the eastern New Guinea Highlands. Until recently, it was thought that kuru is caused by a virus with a prolonged incubation period. Recent microbiological evidence now points to

Questions that might be addressed include: Has postcolonial theory transformed this area of scholarship? What impact has postcolonial theory had upon historical studies in the region? What is the current fate of the concept of hybridity? Is hybridity still a useful term to describe urban indigenous practices, or does the term have more general applications?
