Item Metadata only The Metaphorical Significance of Power(Conference Organising Committee, 2011) Bosworth, WilliamItem Metadata only The influence of Authoritarianism: Democratic Support among First and Second-Generation Immigrants in Australia(Conference Organising Committee, 2011) Pietsch, Juliet; McAllister, IanAs liberal democracies tighten membership criteria for citizenship and place greater expectations on new immigrants to adopt liberal values of democracy, this paper examines whether this is necessary if democracy support is determined by other factors other than one�s political background. The paper�s main focus is on the children of immigrants born in authoritarian regimes. While previous research has shown that pre-migration socialization in authoritarian regimes influence immigrants� democratic transition, less is known whether authoritarian values are passed onto children born and educated in established democracies. Given that findings show that immigrants from authoritarian regimes lag behind the rest of the population in terms of support for democracy, this paper seeks to find out whether the influence of education in an established democracy and perceptions of government performance may take precedence over the political values learnt at home as determinants of democratic support. Using the Australian Election Study, these findings highlight the extent of adult migration experiences and evaluations of government performance on democratic support.Item Metadata only Meagre Harvest or Just Poorly Documented?(Conference Organising Committee, 2011) Andrew, MerrindahlItem Metadata only Elections, Information, and Policy Responsiveness in Hybrid Regimes(Conference Organising Committee, 2011) Miller, MichaelItem Metadata only Leadership Change, Policy Issues and Voting in the 2010 Australian Federal Election(Conference Organising Committee, 2011) Pietsch, Juliet; Bean, Clive; McAllister, IanItem Open Access Red Dragon, Green Energy: Techno-nationalism in China's Approach to Renewable Energy(Conference Organising Committee, 2011) Kennedy, AndrewChina's approach to renewable energy technologies has important long-term implications for a range of pressing international issues, from climate change to economic competition to energy security. This paper explores how the Chinese goernment has approached the development and diffusion of such technologies within China since 2005, focusing on the role of "techno-nationalism" in Chinese policy making in particular. It begins by reviewing the literature on techno-nationalism and developing a typology that differentiates between more or less techno-nationalist views. It then examines the Chinese policy discourse with respect to renewable energy technoliges to identify the extent to which the elements of techno-nationalism are present. Lastly, it evaluates the congruence between Chinese techno-nationalism and Chinese policy in the renewable energy sphere.Item Metadata only From Leading to Supporting Actor: The World Bank Group in a "Tale of Two Crises": The Response of the World Bank Group to the 2008 Global Financial Crisis(Conference Organising Committee, 2011) Bazbauers, AdrianItem Metadata only Privatizing policing on a global scale?
