The contemporary mass mobilisation of school students in Australia is unprecedented but also reflects the growing numbers of young people participating in the past 15 years in Australian youth-led organisations for climate and social justice (Collin, 2015). Among these, the youth-led Australian Youth Climate Coalition (AYCC) has been particularly significant: running high profile participatory campaigns, delivering climate campaigning workshops, training for school-age students and developing an extensive and decentralised model of community organising and action. With more than 150,000 members, the AYCC enables personalisable collective action: AYCC followers choose their own level of engagement and organise localised and networked actions, online and offline - hallmarks of the current climate protests.
Australia's education system reflects its history of federalism. State and territory governments are responsible for administering education within their jurisdiction and across the sector comprising government (public), Catholic systemic and other independent schooling systems. They collaborate on education policy with the federal government. Over the past two decades the federal government has taken a greater role in funding across the education sector, and as a result of this involvement and the priorities of federal governments of the day, Australia now has one of the highest rates of non-government schooling in the OECD. Funding equity across the sectors has become a prominent issue. Concerns have been compounded by evidence of declining student performance since Australia's initial participation in PISA in 2000, and the increasing gap between our high achievers and low achievers. This chapter explores Australia's PISA 2018 results and what they reveal about the impact of socioeconomic level on student achievement. It also considers the role of school funding and the need to direct support to those schools that are attempting to educate the greater proportion of an increasingly diverse student population including students facing multiple layers of disadvantage.

Australia's political system is, broadly speaking, a well-functioning democracy that delivers a decent standard of living to most members of the community. Despite one of the largest immigration programs in the world, society has generally exhibited a high level of social cohesion and inclusion, with reasonable levels of equality of opportunity and an open labor market. In consequence, successive opinion polls have shown the Australian public to have some of the highest levels of democratic satisfaction and national pride among the established democracies.

An important tactic throughout World War II was the usage of propaganda cartoons that were widely distributed -- many with the motive of sowing dissent and further degrading morale within respective groups. This colored print, titled Australia Screams, has no exact date associated with it, but through an analysis of the iconography, stylistic choices made, as well as the simultaneously occurring historical events, it can be inferred that this was most likely produced in the early 1940s. There is no signature on the print, but again through visual analysis it can be assumed that it was made by an enemy of the Allied Forces. At the top left corner reads the title, "Australia Screams". Below, a wounded and concerned Australian soldier is depicted standing on the country of New Guinea and is holding a rifle. The caption above him reads, "The Aussie: What was that scream? Something up?" Beside him is an American soldier, standing on the country of Australia, who looks back towards the Australian officer. This soldier is shown holding a woman who is clearly struggling to get out of his grasp. Her breasts are exposed and the text next to them reads, "The Yank: Sh. sh. Quiet, girlie. Calm yourself. He'll be on the next casualty list. No worry." An American flag has been placed down next to them. There is nothing on the back side of the print, but the clear folds may indicate that this piece was folded up and possibly distributed from the air. During the early 1940s, Australia, who at this time was a part of the Allied forces, played a large role in the Pacific Theater of war between the Allies and Japan. The situation in the Pacific Theater was worsening and there were constant threats of the Japanese invading Northern Australia.This caused widespread panic and incited drastic measures to be taken by Australian government to protect the country and its territories. One of these measures was the deployment of U.S. soldiers in Australia, which in the beginning was a welcomed and positive event. However, attitudes around this deployment quickly deteriorated, especially among Australian soldiers themselves who were being deployed around the Pacific while their American allies were at home with their women and families, being higher paid and receiving more benefits. The Battle of Brisbane, the result of escalating tensions, led to two nights of rioting between Australians and U.S. troops on November 26–27, 1942, including hundreds of casualties and one Australian death. I argue that this print was made by enemy forces, specifically Japan, to further exploit and provoke tensions between American and Australian allies and in turn advance their own political agenda. The style of this cartoon is reminiscent of Japanese political propaganda of this time (cf. Sterling W. Schallert Collection, WVM Mss 104, https://wisvetsmuseum.com/blog/japanese_propaganda_wwii/). This is shown through the similarly depicted American figures, as they are all exaggerated with prominent features (ie. scrunched up faces, large and emphasized bodies and facial expressions, etc.). It is also shown through their common use of symbolism within propaganda art; the Australian soldier's broken bayonet could be a metaphor for a flaccid penis, thus reflecting the loss of manhood and threat many Australians felt by American soldiers on the Australian homefront with complete access to wives and girlfriends while they were stationed overseas. This piece must have been successful in evoking a specific type of anger between the Allies and in creating a disruption, as a penis is very clearly drawn onto the print on the American soldier. This was, again, to probably emphasize the sexual threat of Americans. While specifics of the piece are still unclear, this print was done with the purpose of swaying or influencing specific groups and was often effective in inciting anger, discontent, and more. Additional copies of this piece have been found in the USMC Archives (COLL/3541) and in the Duke University Libraries, Broadsides and Ephemera Collection (bdsja10001).

This paper describes the current setting for lexicography in Australia by reviewing the place of English since the first British settlement began, in 1788. The emergence of Australian English as the national language is traced, and its relations with the Australian Aboriginal languages touched on. The greatest change in the language setting came with Australia's immigration policy in its post-World War II form. This resulted in the government's eventual recognition of Australia as multilingual and multicultural, and urgently in need of a formal policy on languages, one which treated the many community languages of Australia as an economic, social, educational asset. The paper then summarises the past and present record of lexicography, in Australian English, in Aboriginal and community languages, and in languages of its neighbours in the Pacific area. Titles of some of the most important dictionaries are listed in the bibliography. It ends by describing the outlook of the newly formed Australasian Association for Lexicography. ; Leksikografie in Australië Hierdie bydrae beskryf die huidige leksikografiese situasie in Australië deurdat daar 'n oorsig gegee word van die situasie van Engels sedert die eerste Britse vestiging in 1788. Die opkoms van Australiese Engels as nasionale taal word nagespoor, en die Australiese inboorlingtale word aangeroer. Die grootste verandering in die taalsituasie het plaasgevind as gevolg van Australië se immigrasiebeleid na die Tweede Wêreldoorlog. Dit het daartoe gelei dat die regering Australië uiteindelik as 'n multitalige en multikulturele land begin sien het. Die regering het ook die dringende behoefte aan 'n formele taalbeleid, wat die onderskeie gemeenskapstale van Australië as ekonomiese, sosiale en opvoedkundige bate sou hanteer, begin besef. Daarna word die vorige en huidige leksikografiese situasie in Australiese Engels, in inboorling- en gemeenskapstale, sowel as in tale van die Stille Oseaan-gebied in hierdie bydrae geskets. Titels van sommige van die belangrikste woordeboeke word in die bibliografie gelys. Hierdie stuk eindig met 'n beskrywing van die uitgangspunte van die nuut gestigte Australasian Association for Lexicography.

Publikacja recenzowana / Peer-reviewed publication ; The paper is based on an address to "Immigration and Multiculturalism in XXI Century. The Case of Poland", conference organised by the Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznan in April 2016. It reviews both the Australian immigration experience and Australian multiculturalism from an historical perspective and also reviews current practice in an attempt to evaluate its relevance to Europe. The paper starts with an examination of objectives and principles underlying the Australian immigration system over the last two centuries with particular focus on economic development, national security and identity issues. Then the paper outlines the settlement and multicultural policies and programs that have been put in place since 1975 to integrate migrant and refugee intake into broader Australian society. It also considers the linkages that exists between immigration and multiculturalism and evaluates the success or otherwise of these policies/programs in terms of social cohesion outcomes. Finally, the paper examines the Australian solutions and contemporary challenges and considers the applicability of the Australian model to guide the development of European responses to the 2015–16 migration/refugee crises. It concludes that at present the European Union has neither an eff ective immigration policy nor Australian style multiculturalism and settlement policies to deal with the current immigration crisis and/or its social cohesion consequences. ; Artykuł jest rozwinięciem wykładu wygłoszonego na konferencji "Imigracja i wielokulturowość w XXI wieku. Przypadek Polski", zorganizowanej przez Uniwersytet im. Adama Mickiewicza w Poznaniu w kwietniu 2016 r. Zawiera on historyczny i współczesny przegląd australijskich doświadczeń z imigracją oraz wielokulturowością i próbuje ocenić przydatność tego doświadczeń dla Europy. Pierwsza część artykułu omawia cele i zasady australijskiego systemu imigracyjnego stosowane przez ostatnie dwieście lat, ze szczególnym naciskiem na ekonomię, bezpieczeństwo i świadomość narodową. Następnie autor rozwija temat polityki osadnictwa i wielokulturowości od roku 1975, z punktu widzenia sukcesu w integracji migrantów i uchodźców w społeczeństwo australijskie. Szczególny dyskurs dotyczy powiązań pomiędzy polityką imigracyjną i wielokulturowością. Artykuł ocenia wpływ tych programów rządowych na zapewnienie społecznej jedności. W końcowej części artykuł ocenia użyteczność australijskich rozwiązań dla formowania odpowiedzi na europejski kryzys związany z masowym napływem uchodźców i migrantów w latach 2015–2016. W konkluzji autor stwierdza, iż Unia Europejska nie ma obecnie ani skutecznej polityki imigracyjnej ani programów osadnictwa, które pozwoliłyby na efektywną kontrolę granic i na zapewnienie spokoju społecznego.

The metaphor of "movement" has been applied in limited measure to indigenous action in Australia, and more to recent events (∼1960s and afterwards) than to earlier ones. This review characterizes movement in social-semiotic terms that allow consideratio
