Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Fragile Prosperity delivers an authoritative, historically informed critique of Australia's monetary policy, showing how flawed ideas on money, tax and inflation shaped today's economy. It reexamines deregulation, rising house prices and inequality, and reveals a system facing a stark policy dilemma with global relevance.The thrust of this excellent work is that the process and consequences of the generation of money have been widely misunderstood by regulatory and government bodies, leading Australia unwittingly clinging to a fragile prosperity. Kells sets about offering practical solutions. David Merrett Fragile Prosperity offers a fresh view of Australia's past 50 years of economic policy, arguing its core pillars are flawed and based on misunderstandings of money, taxation and fiscal accounting.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. The south-western Pacific is the only region in the world where all tuna stocks have a healthy status. It supports the acknowledged best researched and managed tuna fishery on the planet. With skipjack tuna being the most important renewable natural resource in the region, the fishery is crucial to the economic and wider social wellbeing of Pacific Island peoples, who are now largely managing these resources for themselves.Astonishingly, while many individuals, groups, organisations, institutions and governments from around the world were involved in the establishment of this gigantic fishery, it came into being mainly through the vision and tenacious efforts of a single young Australian scientist, Dr. Bob Kearney.In this book, Kearney tells the story of how he crossed paths, and sometimes swords, with philanthropists, bankers, fishing executives, scientists, lawyers, government leaders and representatives from many nations, and even the Indonesian military, in personally designing, obtaining funding for, administering, and demonstrating the scientific and commercial value of his dream experiment, carried out across more than thirty million square kilometres of ocean. The extraordinary true story of the pioneering Skipjack Programme, whose groundbreaking science transformed Pacific tuna fisheries, revealed the world's largest sustainable skipjack resource and reshaped fisheries management for generations.

Hardback small octavo, dustjacket, very good condition (in very good dustjacket), spine background colour faded jacket, minor edgewear. 163 pp. Aborigines who come to Brisbane from settlements and small country towns face the problems of rapid urbanisation - housing, employment, education, morale. They have had previous experience of white Australian society, but little of the social institutions that white Australians take for granted. In Brisbane, these social institutions and their agencies are available, yet Aborigines do not take advantage of them, partly because of their past lack of experience, and partly because they do not always see such institutions as compatible with their life styles. Encourages Aborigines to use the existing social institutions and create new ones to meet their ends. …
