The Road To European Integration: Examining The Impact Of Maastricht, Melissa M. Shaw

Whittier Scholars Program

The continent of Europe has undergone more dramatic changes in the past few years than it has in the last few decades. From east to west, nearly every nation has been swept up in this tide of historic transformation. Both the crumbling of the former Soviet Union and the fall of the Iron Curtain have changed the face of Europe today. Not only have the formal boundaries between east and west been dismantled, but the Cold War has drawn to a close, ushering in a new era of peace and hope. The concept of a New World Order” may be …

Place-Identity And Homelessness : The Restorative Nature Of The Home, Marie Sadkowski

Theses: Doctorates and Masters

This research aims to address deficiencies in the Place-Identity literature and establish whether the home is a central and mediating environment within this theory. An exploration of the association between homelessness and Place-Identity provides a vehicle for clarifying the psychological role of the home and in doing so an increased awareness of this social problem is promoted. Korpela's (1989) and Kaplan's (1983) theories on place, accentuating active self-regulatory mechanisms and restorative environments, act as a catalyst and provide a solid foundation for this current research. The extensive literature on the home highlights the different conceptions that abound and the lack …

The Australian Media And The 'Push To Asia', Jefferson Lee

Research outputs pre 2011

In 1989 the Garnaut Report appeared arguing Australian trade would have to take on a new Asian focus. ¹ The Hawke Government began to implement its recommendations in 1990-91. But it was not until the ascendancy of the Keating administration that in 1992 the Federal Government launched a major national initiative to integrate Australia more closely with the Australian-Pacific Region. Various federal politicians and departmental spokespersons argued with a great deal of urgency that "Asia" was a potential economic lifeline for Australia well into the 21st Century. Federal Minister Dawkins said the time had come for Australia "to be enmeshed …

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

This article provides information on political correctness (PC). PC, as an expression, began years ago as something of a joke to describe communists who slavishly toed the party line. In the eyes of the right-wing anti-PC forces, this modern crusade toward multiculturalism sprang from the machinations of the 1968 campus radicals.
