For The Love Of: Book Review Of Radiophilia By Carolyn Birdsall, Lucia Vodanovic
For The Love Of: Book Review Of Radiophilia By Carolyn Birdsall, Lucia Vodanovic
RadioDoc Review
Radiophilia, the new book in The Study of Sound Series, discusses radio in the context of recent literature about affects and emotions. Informed by various traditions within media and cultural studies, and guided by the work of Lauren Berlant and Arjun Appudarai, it approaches ‘radiophilia’ -love for, or strong attachment to, radio—as a wide-reaching concept that includes groups practices and social moods and that can be practised in public spaces and communities, beyond interior and domestic set-ups.

The Amplify Manifesto: Rewind, Replay, Reflect, Stacey Copeland, Hannah Mcgregor, Natalie Dusek
RadioDoc Review
We are the Amplify Podcast Network, a research project working to develop sustainable models for producing, peer-reviewing, and publishing scholarly podcasts. The Amplify Manifesto aims to capture the spirit of our network: playful, experimental, and multi-voiced. As a radically political written form, the manifesto provides a creative ground to communicate a set of ideals, goals, and intentions with purpose. In revisiting the manifesto for Radio Doc Review, we unpack the construction of the manifesto as sound-first multimodal scholarship.

A Responsible Parrhesia? A Review Of The Price Of Secrecy, Sara Tafakori
A Responsible Parrhesia? A Review Of The Price Of Secrecy, Sara Tafakori
RadioDoc Review
The Price of Secrecy immerses the listener in stories of individual trauma, of child abuse and rape, yet also draws lessons from them of wider social significance. It includes moments of narrative catharsis, interspersed with repeated reminders that the stories are unfinished and open-ended—that the solutions lie out there, in social action, rather than in the stories themselves. The series also gestures towards structural critique, especially of ‘the legal constraints’ it identifies, yet it places greater importance on changing the wider culture through challenging the culture of secrecy and shame around victims’ stories of rape and abuse. This centrally means …
The Feminist Community Of Podcast Producers In Brazil: Mapping The Profile Of Women, Aline Hack
The Feminist Community Of Podcast Producers In Brazil: Mapping The Profile Of Women, Aline Hack
RadioDoc Review
This paper goes beyond celebrating podcast growth in Brazil, analyzing 511 Brazilian podcast producers (2015-2020). Using a semi-structured form, the survey focuses on outlining the profile of female producers. Drawing from gender, cultural, and political science literature, it explores how producer presence aligns with intersectional practices in Brazilian feminisms. Results indicate that women podcast producers in Brazil mostly have a college degree, variable income and identify as feminist, contributing to a unified community that engages with and challenges the political and human rights agenda, expanding discourse through communication access.
Listening To News, A New Interaction Ritual: An Emotional Interaction Analysis Of Jump Into The Rabbit Hole, Yang Ding
RadioDoc Review
Objectivity and neutrality have always been the reporting principles followed by journalists. The emergence of audio news presents reality in an invisible way, blurring the boundary between emotion and truth. Jump into the Rabbit Hole[1], as one of the few in-depth news podcasts in China, brings immersive stories to the audience with immersive production. These stories help the audience better understand the truth of the news and also cultivate the habit of listening to the news. This paper examines how interaction rituals in news podcasts are carried out using the benefits of podcast platforms in the context of …
Some More Notes On Notes On A Scandal: Lessons From Producing Pakistan’S First True Crime Podcast, Tooba Masood Khan
Some More Notes On Notes On A Scandal: Lessons From Producing Pakistan’S First True Crime Podcast, Tooba Masood Khan
RadioDoc Review
If a country’s podcast scene could be described as a vibe, Pakistan’s would be “dude bro”; that is, politically and culturally right-leaning masculinist narrative. The format is simple: like The Joe Rogan Experience which has over 15 million subscribers and over three billion views in Pakistan, there’s a host and a guest. In addition to Rogan, other popular pods are The Pakistan Experience, Pakistonomy, Thought Behind Things, Talks that Matter, Mooroo, The Pivot, Junaid Akram’s Podcast. The conversations usually revolve around the guest’s life, their political views, the economy – whether Pakistan will default or not, will …
Podcasting-As-Care, An Exercise In Diasporic Digital Media Activism, Zoha Zokaei
Podcasting-As-Care, An Exercise In Diasporic Digital Media Activism, Zoha Zokaei
RadioDoc Review
This article draws on my experience of engaging in diasporic digital media activism on the issue of child sexual abuse in Iran, which culminated in the production of the Price of Secrecy podcast. I introduce the method of Podcasting-as-Care as a method of activism that brings notions of feminist care, activism and listening in a close conversation framed through podcasting. Without resorting to a top-down vision of activism where a notion of listening, i.e. how the victims should be listened to, is prescribed and exemplified, the Price of Secrecy podcast becomes an experience of listening to how victims are failed …

Contractors' Perception Of Success Factors For Implementing Public Road Construction Projects, Noah Mwelu, Susan Watundu, Musa Bukoma Moya
Australasian Accounting, Business and Finance Journal
The Construction industry faces challenges and is increasingly failing to meet organizational objectives. This is evidenced by unsuccessful project implementation. Project failure oscillates between cost and schedule overruns and low-quality work, with construction organizations continuously failing to meet targets and losing significant funds annually. The public road construction subsector, which is currently in the spotlight for procurement irregularities, is equally challenged by the failures. Reports show that public road construction projects are not completed on time and within estimated budgets because of shoddy work and contract variations that negatively affect the government's goal attainment. This has resulted in several administrative …

The Effects Of Management Control Systems And Leadership Style On Company Performance, Fauziah Aida Fitri, Muhammad Syukur, Dian Faradiba
Australasian Accounting, Business and Finance Journal
A management control system (MCS) is one of the tools used to evaluate performance at different organisational levels. This study employs the Levers of Control (LoC) dimension introduced by Simons in 1995, consisting of the belief system, boundary system, diagnostic control system, and interactive control system. Besides, leadership styles (transformational style and transactional style) are also believed to influence company performance. This study aims to investigate the role of MCS and leadership styles on company performance. The result finds that MCS and leadership styles have a significant positive impact on company performance. The findings also suggest that the transactional leadership …

With an emphasis on accrual-EM, the current study thoroughly examines and synthesizes the antecedents and consequences of bank EM. Notably, certain themes (such as corporate governance, international financial reporting standards, ownership structure and liquidity) emerge as universally relevant, bridging the …

Insights Into Professional Learning For Intensive Block Model: Lessons From A Participatory Evaluation For Capacity Building, Gayani Samarawickrema, Kaye Cleary, Sally Gauci
Insights Into Professional Learning For Intensive Block Model: Lessons From A Participatory Evaluation For Capacity Building, Gayani Samarawickrema, Kaye Cleary, Sally Gauci
Journal of University Teaching & Learning Practice
We share lessons gained through supporting an institution-wide curriculum innovation via a post-graduate professional learning program. At the inception of the innovation, an intensive Block Model (BM) was unfamiliar to both the institution and its professional learning facilitators. The Graduate Certificate of Tertiary Education was re-modelled with BM as the heart of professional learning so academics would encounter BM as students. The program modelled BM principles, reinforced by meta-conversations to provide students with a reflective, immersive experience. Through a participatory evaluation, professional learning facilitators’ individual reflections were distilled to generate collaborative insights into academics’ capacity building for BM. Their lessons …

Top Management Characteristics, Performance Measurement Systems Design And Strategic Change Of Reformed Public Hospitals In Indonesia, Made Aristia Prayudi, Nurkholis Nurkholis, Erwin Saraswati, Mohamad Khoiru Rusydi
Australasian Accounting, Business and Finance Journal
This study examined the impact of top management characteristics on strategic change in public hospitals in Indonesia, focusing on the mediating role of performance measurement system (PMS) design. Questionnaires were distributed to 157 top managers from Indonesian regional public hospitals undergoing reform. The findings indicate that younger, short-tenured top managers with business administration backgrounds are likelier to lead the strategic change, specifically the shift from a defender to a prospector strategy. Additionally, PMS design partially mediates the relationship between top managers' age, educational background, and strategic change. However, no significant mediation effect of PMS design was observed in the relationship …
‘Self-Sustainability’ And ‘Performance’ In Microfinance – The Contextual Relevance Of The Terms, Ashfaq Khan
‘Self-Sustainability’ And ‘Performance’ In Microfinance – The Contextual Relevance Of The Terms, Ashfaq Khan
Australasian Accounting, Business and Finance Journal
The microfinance sector’s Paradigm Shift (PS) of the 1990s caused a drastic shift in how Microfinance Organizations (MFOs) ensured their long-term survival and sustainability. The PS required MFOs to adopt a commercial approach in all their operations and pursue profitability and self-sustainability rather than depending on the provision of subsidized funds. Resorting to Schatzki’s (2002) ‘site of the social’ theoretical construct and DiMaggio and Powell’s (1983) institutional theory, this empirical paper aims to evaluate the real performance of Pakistan’s microfinance sector, following the PS, in terms of its strict adherence to its founding objectives of eradicating poverty and serving the …

Journal of University Teaching & Learning Practice
Tutors in higher education are receiving and responding to student disclosures that include racism, anxiety, loneliness, legal disputes, family upheavals, physical, emotional, and mental health, bereavement, legal battles, and harassment. In many cases, this caring aspect of the tutor role is not acknowledged, allocated time in job descriptions, or accurately remunerated. This qualitative study explored how tutors experienced and managed student disclosures, the personal and professional impact of responding to disclosures, and how tutors believed they could be better supported. Data was collected from two cohorts of participants tutoring at a University in Aotearoa New Zealand. using interviews and questionnaires …
