The role of private rental support programs in housing outcomes for vulnerable Australians
This research will explore the role, extent and benefits of the diverse range of private rental support programs in Victoria, South Australia and New South Wales. It will investigate the efficacy of these programs and the potential benefits to be achieved by modification, expansion or standardisation of private rental support programs.Selina Tually, Michele Slatter, Susan Oakley and Debbie Faulkner with Sandy Horne for the Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute at The University of Adelaid
Women, domestic and family violence and homelessness: putting housing back in the equation
An assessment of the current situation in Australia with regard to the relationship between domestic and family violence and homelessness for Australian women is presented. Poverty and lack of an independent income are important factors in the vulnerability of women to homelessness and it is critical to review income support levels for women affected by domestic and family violence.Selina Tually, Debbie Faulkner, Cecile Cutler and Michele Slatte
Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)
This study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Beyond charity: The engagement of the philanthropic and homelessness sectors in Australia
Project No. FP8This report considers the intersections between the philanthropic sector and the homelessness sector, in the light of recent reforms to both sectors. The report considers the similarities and differences between government grants, and the body of philanthropic funding – annually around $2 billion. Both are provided in order to allow not-for-profit organisations to conduct their work, but they facilitate the not-for-profit sector in distinct ways. The report also considers the various factors that drive individuals and corporations to engage in philanthropy, and the implications this has for the funding of homelessness interventions.Selina Tually, Jo Baulderstone, Michele Slatter, Victoria Skinne
Climate change and the future of Australia's country towns
This chapter presents the future of Australia's country towns in the context of anticipated climate change, where it is assumed Australia faces moderate climate change as predicted by the CSIRO's MK3.5 model. It argues that the future of Australia's country towns is not simply a product of climate change and its manifestation in terms of altered rainfall patterns, increased average temperatures and more frequent extreme events. The chapter discusses Australia's country towns within the context of contemporary and anticipated social, economic and climatic trends, before moving on to discuss the estimation of vulnerability within these communities. It describes both the implications for rural communities and the paths potentially available to governments across Australia. The adaptation and future of Australia's country towns is not simply a story of a changing climate and its impacts.Andrew Beer, Selina Tually, Michael Kroehn, John Martin, Rolf Gerritsen, Mike Taylor, Michelle Graymore and Julia La
