| description |
The contributions collected in this volume result from an Australian
Research Council project initiated in 2001 by the School of Social
Work and Applied Human Sciences of the University of Queensland in
collaboration with the Queensland Government departments of the
Premier and Cabinet, and Families. The research project was initiated
because of the editors’ interest in examining the upsurge of spatially
based policy activity aimed at addressing the spatial disadvantage that
occurred in Queensland in the latter 1990s. The project’s examination
over three years of the Queensland experience also highlighted similar
policy initiatives in other Australian States. These developments mirrored
global trends. Globalisation has accentuated uneven regional economic
development, and governments throughout the world are seeking
new policy directions to address the needs of people and communities
excluded from the benefits and opportunities of citizenship by virtue of
where they live.
This book builds on the project’s three years of research activity,
which included a series of policy forums culminating in a major symposium
conducted in Brisbane during late 2003, in which leading national
and international scholars and policy practitioners examined these trends
from national and international perspectives. The book’s key theoretical
themes and content areas were debated and developed during this symposium.
Most of the chapters in this volume are based on papers given
at that symposium. They have been selected from those presented and
rewritten for publication.
The research project could not have occurred without the efforts of
many groups and people. Financial support from the Australian Research
Council and the Queensland Government was of course crucial to the
project. Staff from the School of Social Work and Applied Human
Sciences at the University of Queensland and officials from a range of
Queensland Government agencies, particularly the Departments of the
Premier and Cabinet, and Families, supported the project from its inception,
and many participated actively in the provision of administrative
support, the development of research papers, and the planning and conduct
of policy forums. |
