Content available Australian Multiculturalism
100%
EN
Australian multiculturalism - a policy strategy aimed at facilitating effective social integration of non-British immigrants and managing cultural diversity - was devised in the 1950s and 60s, and adopted as government policy in the 1970s. As a number of recent publications in the European and Australian media suggest, this form of multiculturalism has been misunderstood and confused with ethnic pluralism and assimilationist, ‘melting pot’ approaches. These confusions seem particularly widespread in Europe. This is hardly surprising considering the scarcity of public clarifications of what multiculturalism is, the strong political backlash against uncontrolled migrations, and the paucity of informed debate about long term strategies of migrant settlement and adaptation. The paper outlines the principles of Australian multiculturalism, identifies its theoretical foundations, and highlights some of the widespread confusions about its meaning, focus and objectives.

Australijska wielokulturowość – strategia polityczna mająca na celu ułatwienie integracji imigrantów o korzeniach innych niż brytyjskie i zarządzanie różnorodnością kulturową – została wypracowana w latach 50. i 60. minionego wieku i przyjęta, w latach 70., jako element oficjalnej polityki rządowej. Jak pokazują liczne przykłady z europejskich i australijskich mediów, ta forma wielokulturowości była i jest wielokrotnie mylona z koncepcjami opartymi na ideach kulturowego tygla, asymilacji i pluralizmu etnicznego. Te mylne wyobrażenia wydają się szczególnie rozpowszechnione w Europie. Nic dziwnego, skoro tak mało jest w sferze publicznej działań mających na celu wyjaśnienie zjawiska wielokulturowości czy rzetelnych debat dotyczących mechanizmów osiedlania się imigrantów i ich adaptacji, a tak wiele przejawów ostrego sprzeciwu wobec niekontrolowanych migracji. W artykule przedstawione zostały teoretyczne założenia i główne cechy australijskiej wielokulturowości oraz najczęstsze błędy w rozumieniu jej znaczenia i roli.

Australia is a country built on immigration and one which is highly urbanised. The authorities have recently embarked on a policy of regional dispersal of immigrants with a view of retaining them in regions long-term so as to assist the regional demographic and economic growth. This article reviews the collaboration of the Federal, State/Territory and Local Governments in this and related policies of settlement and integration of immigrants in regions. It then evaluates the effects of this collaboration, highlights key retention factors and points to reasons behind current knowledge gaps. It offers recommendations for an enhanced retention.

Australia jest krajem imigracji i krajem wysoko zurbanizowanym. W ostatnich latach władze australijskie wprowadziły politykę zachęcającą imigrantów do osiedlania się w regionach (poza wielkimi miastami), licząc że uda się ich tam zatrzymać na dłuższy okres, co w konsekwencji ma wesprzeć wzrost liczby ludności i rozwój ekonomiczny tych terenów. Artykuł omawia współpracę wszystkich szczebli administracji w dziedzinie tej polityki i w zakresie powiązanych polityk osiedlenia i integracji. Ocenia on następnie wyniki tej współpracy, zwraca uwagę na główne czynniki sprzyjające długoterminowemu osiedlaniu się imigrantów w regionach i wskazuje na przyczyny luk w wiedzy o efektach tej współpracy. Artykuł zamykają propozycje w jaki sposób poprawić dotychczasowe wyniki osadnictwa imigrantów w regionach.

The office of Governor is the oldest constitutional office in Australia. Each of the six states was founded as a British colony, and a Governor was appointed by the British government to exercise executive authority over the colony, to represent the monarch who was permanently based in London and to perform the same constitutional and representational functions at state level, which the Governor General perform at the federal level. Current position of state governor in the Australian political system is the result of the transformation of the office, taking place from the eighteenth century, when the governors led newly emerging British colonies, as well as political and social changes in Australia and in the British Empire. The article presents the history of that office, requirements for officials and a range of their privileges and powers. The evolution of this position will be undoubtedly associated with the result of discussion on a key constitutional change, which is currently pending between the two environments: Australians for a Constitutional Monarchy and Australian Republican Movement

This article aims at considering the question whether various migration theories, especially in the fields of demography and sociology, could be useful in the analysis of migration from Poland to Australia in the 1980s. The author is not able to propose definitive answers, however he suggests that the division between political and economic migration, commonly used by researchers, does not provide an effective instrument for describing this specific social group. The article shows that the majority of Poles who did have an official refugee status did not in fact fit well into the definition of a refugee. Meanwhile, among the migrants who did not obtain the refugee status, one could find many active members of the Solidarity movement and also people persecuted by the Polish authorities. Within the research on migration motives, migration transfer, adaptation processes and, to some extent, political activity of Polish migrants in Australia, the author found the following models most useful and applicable: various social network theories, Oded Stark's relative deprivation model, the model of decision-making process developed by Gerald Haberkorn or the concept of Oddyssean and Rubicon refugees by Danièle Joly. None of these theories can provide a universal tool which could allow the researcher to cover all methodological problems related to the subject of Polish migration to Australia between 1980 and 1989 – especially in the area of understanding migrants’ public activity in the new country.

Australian economy is considered to be one of the most stable and competitive ones in the world. The country is a trading partner for more than 200 countries, with a 20% share of export in GDP. The economy is mainly based on services which constitute approx. 75% of GDP [1]. According to the UN Human Development Index, Australia is the second country in the world, after Norway, as far as quality and average length of life, health service and freedom of economic activities are concerned. The society’s wealth constitutes one of the key factors that influence the number of cars as per person. The number of cars, which prevail among the passenger means of transport, and their harmful influence on the environment forced the government to focus on limiting the number of private cars by means of, among others, the concept of constructing high-speed rail.

Migration always involves loss, which inspires potential writers and is itself often the focus of migrants’ narratives. Seen through this monodimensional attachment to things left behind and hence not particularly valued, written and unwri tten stories of migrants’ experiences are themselves prone to disappear, together with the memory of their authors. This paper exam-ines the work of a biographer and poet, Bogumiła Żongołłowicz, commited to recovering and preserving achievements of Polish post-war migrants in Australia, reclaiming forgotten or unappreciated literary works for future readers, and celebrating life and memory of those who would otherwise perish as well.

The aim of the article is to analyse the way in which Seweryn Korzeliński and Bolesław Dolański describe the geographical location of Australia (the distance that separates it from Europe). In many reports from Australia and literary texts describing the continent, written either before or after Korzeliński’s and Dolański’s memoirs, the distance that separates Australia from Europe is considered the main characteristic feature that determines the way in which other Australian phenomena are regarded. The article discusses the interesting way in which the two authors present Australian geographical location and the purpose this literary interpretation serves in their memoirs.

Zintegrowany system zapisu krajobrazów inżynieryjnych (ze śladami ich dawnych funkcji przemysłowych, komunikacyjnych lub militarnych) opiera się na zapisie rzutu lub widoku 3D i ekspozycji ich najważniejszych cech. Zapis tabelowy porównuje przeszłe, obecne i spodziewane tendencje zmian tych cech. Jest to prosty i ogólny sposób rejestracji porzuconych i nieznanych kompleksów, oczekujących na dokładniejsze studia. Metoda ta okazała się przydatna w różnych miejscach: w fortyfikacje w Polsce i Chorwacji, stare kamieniołomy pod Krakowem, historyczna droga strategiczna i linia kolejowa w Beskidach, stare lotniska i inne.

Integrated system of recording of engineering (post-industrial, post-military, post-transportation) landscape consists of a visual and schedule registration of the most important features of landscapes. A schedule compares former, contemporary and expected trends of changes of those basic features. It is a simple and general way of registration of abandoned and unknown complexes, anticipating the most detailed studies. A method became useful in various examples: fortresses in Poland and Croatia; former quarries near Krakow, historic strategic way and railway in the Beskidy Mountains, former airfields and other.

In recent time, while time is running very fast, there have been lots of constructions, are being built in everywhere. Especially, Changi Airport Terminal 3, opened its doors in the beginning of 2008. It is not a huge structure to house huge spaces, but also it is an environmental issue of today. Singapore Flyer, the sister of London Eye with a height of 135 m. from a height of 165m. says welcome to the new arrivals to Singapore from Changi. In Little India, the La Salle Art School, shines also during the night time while going to esplanade, but never reachable on time. There are several high rises residential in Singapore, Little India, besides the official skyscrapers in city center. In Australia, Surfers Paradise is full with skyscrapers as residential for summer times. The airport in Brisbane welcomes to the passengers from Singapore, and makes them go to Sydney. The city pattern of Sydney is a real copy of London, with Hyde Park, and street names around. First stop is at Sydney Opera House, surely. Its architectural and structural solution, coming from a period 1957 and 1973, is still unique in the world. From inside of the Sydney Opera House towards Harbour Bridge during night time, gives enough idea what the Harbour Bridge looks like. Towards Darling Harbour, along the streets, a lot of skyscrapers take place as offices. Around Darling Harbour, the new environmental development, named King Street Wharf, announces about lots of addresses for eating during the day, defining the new name of enjoyment in Sydney. The convention center in Darling Harbour is ready for every exhibition. And the shopping center, nearby the convention center and the sea museum at the next side of the wooden bridge for monorail connection serve for the happiness of the people in Sydney. The New South Wales Museum, just across the Royal Botanical Gardens, is a great chance to meet with talented Australian artists and their products under a huge construction. In the paper, the flow about the current issues of civil and environmental engineering in Singapore and Australia will be defined with their architectural and structural explanations.

expectations of its customers. In the last quarter of the 20th century there was an increased interest in individual low-cost journeys, which meant an increased demand for cheap accommo­dation. Thus, especially in Asia and Australia, a vast variety of accommodation facilities were created to meet the needs of a new type of tourist – a backpacker. Material and methods. This article describes an synchronous and diachronic view of the innovative changes made to the former tourist dormitory-type, ways of adapting the market expectations of hotel ser­vices to the changing needs of the consumer segment. Conclusions. Implemented innovations primarily helped to develop the competitiveness of the services and strengthen the local economy, associated with backpackers destination.

Obesity is of significant and growing concern among Australian Aboriginal children, and is linked to patterns of child growth. The aim of this paper is to show diverse patterns of growth and obesity emergence among Australian Aboriginal children using historical anthropometric data. Child growth in height, weight and body mass index (BMI) is reanalysed for children aged 2 to 19 years in Australian Aboriginal communities spanning two distinct time periods (the 1950s and 1960s; and the 1990s and 2000s) and six different geographical locations: Yuendumu, Haast’s Bluff, Beswick, Kalumburu, Gerard, and Raukkan. Comparisons of stature and BMI between the earlier and later years of measurement were made, and the proportion of children classified as overweight or obese by the International Obesity Task Force criteria estimated, to allow international comparison. Aboriginal children in the 1990s and 2000s were heavier, with higher BMI than those in the 1950s and 1960s, differences in height being less marked. While no children were classified as overweight or obese in the earlier period, 15% of males and 3% of females were classified so in the later period. The data suggests that the period of onset of the epidemic of overweight and obesity among rural Australian Aboriginal children was likely to have been between the 1960s and 1980s.
