While the Victorian Ethnic Communities Council remains critical of some aspects of state government activity (and very critical of what is perceived as Federal government inaction), there is also recognition of the extraordinary success of the political organisation of ethnic communities and the mobilisation of their networks of influence over the decades. keywords: 1970s; 2007; 2010; able; activists; affairs; alp; area; auspices; australia; background; bracks; branches; brunswick; business; calwell; ccs; ccs journal; centre; chinatown; chinese; city; civil; civil societies; class; commission; communities; community; cosmopolitan; cosmopolitan civil; councillor; creation; critical; cultural; culture; cura; david; dragon; economic; environment; ethnic; ethnicity; european; experience; family; generation; government; greek; groups; history; house; http://utsescholarship.lib.uts.edu.au/epress/journals/index.php/mcs; immigrants; immigration; important; interview; issn; issues; italian; italy; jakubowicz; john; journal; key; labor; late; lekakis; life; like; local; mayor; melbourne; minister; mmav; multicultural; new; no.3; old; online; paper; participation; party; people; place; policy; political; politics; power; premier; process; project; public; rath; research; role; settlement; social; societies; societies journal; society; south; space; state; storer; street; studies; support; sydney; things; time; transformation; university; urban; utsepress; victoria; vol; wang; war; way; welfare; workers; working; world; years; young cache: mcs-1603.pdf plain text: mcs-1603.txt item: #46 of 245 id: mcs-1651 author: Adair, Daryl title: Race, ethnicity and Indigeneity – challenges and opportunities for embracing diversity in sport date: 2010-08-24 words: 1915 flesch: 33 summary: Cosmopolitan Civil Societies Journal, Vol.2, No.2, 2010 iii ISSN: 1837-5391; http://utsescholarship.lib.uts.edu.au/epress/journals/index.php/mcs CCS Journal is published under the auspices of UTSePress, Sydney, Australia In the article ‘Speaking the unspoken: Racism, sport and Māori’, H.

The Department continued with an exculpatory statement, setting the scene for readers seeking an explanation for both the ending of the research, and its consequences: While no new research was commissioned, the number of research reports published surpassed by 20 per cent the number published during the Bureau of Immigration, Multicultural and Population Research's (BIMPR) final year of operation. keywords: 1975; access; affairs; agencies; aima; alp; associated; australian; australian government; australian institute; australian multicultural; australian social; bimpr; board; bureau; canberra; capacity; centre; citizenship; civil; civil societies; closed; coalition; committee; communities; community; concern; conservative; cosmopolitan; cosmopolitan civil; council; data; department; development; diversity; early; election; employment; end; equity; ethnic; evidence; findings; fraser; funding; galbally; government; groups; harmony; hawke; henderson; howard; immigrants; immigration; impact; inclusion; information; inquiry; institute; issues; jakubowicz; journal; key; knowledge; labor; long; major; martin; melbourne; migrant; minister; multicultural; multicultural affairs; multicultural research; national; new; no.2; number; office; outcomes; panel; people; period; plan; policy; political; population; potential; poverty; power; prime; priorities; program; projects; public; publications; questions; racism; recommendations; report; research; review; role; science; services; settlement; significant; small; social; social inclusion; social research; societies; societies journal; society; studies; study; support; survey; sydney; time; vol.6; white; whitlam; wilson; women; work; years cache: mcs-3904.pdf plain text: mcs-3904.txt item: #123 of 245 id: mcs-3914 author: Baxter, Graeme title: Rough Justice?

Most of Polish immigrants still see themselves as a political diaspora, and many of them identify themselves as ‘refugees’ and ‘political immigrants’; • rapid ageing – a reflection of reorientation of Polish migration after 1989, and especially after 2004, towards Europe, as well as declining birth rates – and, finally, • social diversification and widening political division, again, in line with the rapid diversification of the post-communist Polish society and with increasing political polarisation in Poland during the last decade. keywords: 1988; 2018; active; adaptation; ageing; ancestry; associations; australian; australian polonia; children; civil; clubs; communist; communities; community; cosmopolitan; cultural; culture; diaspora; differentiation; diversification; early; economic; ethnic; ethno; general; good; groups; high; home; identity; ideological; immigrants; institute; integration; journal; jupp; language; markowski; members; migration; national; new; no.2; number; numerous; organizations; pakulski; people; persons; poland; poles; polish; polish immigrants; polish organizations; political; polonia; post; pro; rapid; refugees; religious; schools; servicemen; social; societies; solidarity; strong; studies; sydney; university; vol.10; war; wave; wwii; years; zubrzycki cache: mcs-6002.pdf plain text: mcs-6002.txt item: #185 of 245 id: mcs-6019 author: McGregor, Ian M; Yerbury, Hilary; Shahid, Ahmed title: The Voices of Local NGOs in Climate Change Issues: Examples from Climate Vulnerable Nations date: 2018-11-25 words: 9171 flesch: 41 summary: Making available information on climate change issues in languages understood by the local communities, as in Nepal and Tuvalu, and using radio broadcasts as well as printed materials and posters are significant mechanisms for translating climate change knowledge.

Gudynas formulated 10 theses regarding extractivism under the progressive Latin American governments in the first decade of the 21st century, which can be summarized as follows: 1) extractivism remains a relevant sector in the development strategies of Pink Tide governments; 2) but under these left- of-center governments, it is a progressive style of neo-extractivism; 3) the State plays a more active role in the extractive sectors; 4) the new extractivism is subject to commercial-financial globalization, thus keeping South American countries subordinated to the whims of global markets; 5) territorial fragmentation ensues as a result of a network of enclaves connected to different global markets; 6) the key difference under progressive governments is that the ownership of sources tends to be by the state, whereas rules and operations of productive processes continue to follow classic efficiency criteria of competitiveness, profitability and the externalization of social and environmental impacts; 7) social and environmental impacts continue unabated; 8) a greater proportion of the surplus is taken over by the State, which in turn funds social programs, thus appeasing social pressures and generating legitimacy for the State and the extractivist industry broadly; 9) new extractivism, therefore, is elevated as a key driver of economic growth and social welfare; and 10) new extractivism is a novel component of the current iteration of South American developmentalism (Gudynas 2009). keywords: 2014; 2019; 2022; activities; activity; agreement; albuja; amazon; america; apparatus; article; assemblages; authors; burchardt; capital; case; century; civil; communities; companies; concept; conflicts; cosmopolitan; decrees; development; dietz; different; economic; economy; environmental; exploitation; extractive; extractivism; finance; finer; force; foreign; forest; free; fta; garcía; global; government; groups; human; indigenous; interdisciplinary; international; journal; jurema; key; land; latin; law; literature; local; logging; market; mining; natural; neoliberal; new; new extractivism; oil; oliveira; peru; peruvian; petras; policy; political; power; practices; president; private; protests; region; relations; resources; response; rights; role; security; shows; social; societies; south; specific; state; study; system; term; territory; trade; use; veltmeyer; violence; vol cache: mcs-8543.pdf plain text: mcs-8543.txt item: #244 of 245 id: mcs-8595 author: Kamp, Alanna; Dunn, Kevin; Sharples, Rachel; Denson, Nida; Diallo, Thierno title: Understanding Trust in Contemporary Australia Using Latent Class Analysis date: 2023-07-28 words: 11670 flesch: 45 summary: Also examining the broader European citizenry, Hooghe, Marien, & Oser (2017) utilised LCA to investigate the impact of democratic ideals on levels of political trust and developed a typology of distinct groups of respondents characterised by similar combinations of attitudes. https://doi.org/10.1037/1082-989X.11.3.305 Hooghe, M., Marien, S., & Oser, J. 2017, ‘Great expectations: The effect of democratic ideals on political trust in European democracies’, Contemporary Politics, vol. keywords: 0a 0a; 2007; 2017; 2020; 2021; age; analysis; article; attitudes; australia; average; barometer; change; civil; class; class analysis; classes; climate; concerned; cosmopolitan; court; covariates; covid-19; data; democracy; democratic; demographic; different; distrust; distrusting; diversity; economic; edelman; edelman trust; education; et al; european; example; family; foundation; government; groups; growth; high; higher; individuals; information; institutional trust; institutions; interdisciplinary; interpersonal; items; journal; justice; kamp; key; latent; latent class; lca; levels; life; likely; logistic; markus; media; model; multinomial; muthén; nation; national; neighbours; new; non; number; older; overseas; participants; parties; party; people; police; political; politics; public; regression; relationship; religion; religious; research; respondents; results; right; sample; science; significant; social; social trust; societies; statistics; survey; table; trust; trusted; trusting; understanding; unsure; values; variables; vol; voters; years; younger; youth cache: mcs-8595.pdf plain text: mcs-8595.txt item: #245 of 245 id: mcs-883 author: Lattas, Judy title: Queer Sovereignty: the Gay & Lesbian Kingdom of the Coral Sea Islands date: 2009-08-06 words: 4303 flesch: 46 summary: Cosmopolitan Civil Societies Journal Vol.1, No.1, 2009 129 The micronation that I focus on is itself an odd one in relation to others, in Australia and around the world.
