Politics, Policy and Public Administration in Theory and Practice
This festschrift celebrates the extensive contribution John Wanna has made to the research and practice of politics, policy and public administration. It includes both personal acknowledgements of his work and substantial essays on the issues that he focused most closely upon during his academic career: budgeting and financial management, politics, and public policy and administration. The essays address contemporary developments in public sector financial management in Australia and overseas, changing political processes in Queensland and the Commonwealth, and public governance and administration reform trajectories in Australia and internationally, including in China. A common theme is the importance of linking research to practice, reflecting John Wanna’s own style and contribution. Essays include exploration of the interface between academia and practice, including from the perspective of practitioners. The authors of the essays in this volume include eminent Australian and international scholars of public administration, experienced public service practitioners and younger scholars influenced by John Wanna.
The American Joes
The American Joes by novelist Don Otey reveals the plan of a small group of modern-day patriots who vow to return the country to the federalist principles of its Founding Fathers. Working over decades, these men and the protégés they groom have worked peacefully from within to return the government to conformance with the U.S. Constitution. In constant fear of exposure, they move slowly to reverse the trend toward socialism and big government. The quintessential hero of the novel is 'the American Joe' personified by four dedicated achievers. Their initial foes are domestic and international special interests, but they soon find the greatest threat of all is from within-corrupt, self-serving politics. Written in tense, nail-biting prose, this political thriller could be ripped from today's headlines. It is a cautionary tale that puts the reader on guard to a basic truth: each one of us shares the responsibility for insisting on a return to the principles that made our country great.
The Rise of Right-Populism
This book is framed by four over-arching narratives of inquiry. While all four are firmly anchored in Australia’s political milieu – and as such are of considerable interest to a range of actors therein (scholars and students, the media, the political class) – they will also be of interest to a global audience. First, ideation. More specifically, what is the nature of populist politics in Australia, why does it consistently resonate with particular electoral demographics, what is the basis of its appeal over and above electoral cycles, and how should we position it in relation to more familiar concepts such as democracy, nationalism and progressive-conservative politics? Second, electi...
The Palgrave Handbook of Religion, Peacebuilding, and Development in Africa
This Handbook explores the ways in which religion among the African people has been applied in situations of conflict and violence to contribute to sustainable peace and development. It analyzes how peacebuilding inspired and enabled by religion serves as the foundation for sustainable development in Africa, while also acknowledging that religion can also be a tool of destruction, and can be used to fuel violence and underdevelopment. Contributors to this volume offer theoretical discussions from existing literature, as well as experiences of practitioners, to deepen the readers’ understanding on the role of religion and religious institutions in peacebuilding and development in Africa. The Handbook provides reflections on possible future developments as well, thereby aligning with the goals of SDG 16.
Advances in Harmonic Analysis and Partial Differential Equations
This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS Special Session on Harmonic Analysis and Partial Differential Equations, held from April 21–22, 2018, at Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts. The book features a series of recent developments at the interface between harmonic analysis and partial differential equations and is aimed toward the theoretical and applied communities of researchers working in real, complex, and harmonic analysis, partial differential equations, and their applications. The topics covered belong to the general areas of the theory of function spaces, partial differential equations of elliptic, parabolic, and dissipative types, geometric optics, free boundary problems, and ergodic theory, and the emphasis is on a host of new concepts, methods, and results.
Gender Politics
Gender is a powerful force that shapes Australia’s political leadership. Gender impacts the politics, government and policies of our nation. It influences the public lives of all political leaders. It affects how they interact with political institutions and cultures, with each other and how they are treated by the media. It can also shape who we see as strong and capable leaders. Yet, there is a lack of diversity in leadership positions across the political system and accusations of bullying and a toxic culture in our political parties are rife. So what impact does this have upon how Australia is governed and what might be done about it? From the debates on gender quotas to the ‘bonk ban’, from Julie Bishop’s failed leadership bid to Scott Morrison’s cultivated ‘daggy dad’ persona, from the treatment and legacy of Australia’s first female prime minister to the machinations of our political parties and parliament, this book explores the subtle and overt operation of gender politics in Australia. Gender Politics is a provocative and urgent collection that re-examines the way we navigate power and leadership in Australian politics.
Operationalising e-Democracy through a System Engineering Approach in Mauritius and Australia
This book describes how the Systems Engineering (SE) methodology can be used to harness technology and enhance democracy within any political system. Moreover, it provides a practical roadmap for countries and politicians who are willing to change their existing system of governance to one that allows the people to have a meaningful say. In this regard, the book compares and contrasts two countries, Mauritius and Australia, highlighting how SE and e-democracy can be implemented in different contexts.
