Herstories - our history: a bibliography of resources on Western Australian women\u27s history

The centenary of Western Australian Women\u27s suffrage in 1999 has seen a resurgence in interest in the history of women in W.A. While there exists a substantial body of historical resources, extensive guides to these resources are lacking. The majority of general histories of Australian women and Australian suffrage rarely treat W.A. in much detail. This bibliography is intended as a guide and starting point for scholars and students interested in WA Women\u27s history and the history of childhood. Only secondary sources are represented in this bibliography. A wealth of primary sources on WA women\u27s history can be found at the Battye Library, in the Private Archives and Oral History collections

Welfare and education in British colonial Africa, 1918–1945

The relevance of historical research for an explanation of the roots of contemporary educational policy and its relationship to notions of equity, democracy and development has been sadly neglected in recent years. This means that policy makers have forfeited the advantages of reflecting on the traditions and experience of past endeavors and examining them critically for potential understandings of present and future policy making. The aim of this paper was to direct the attention of researchers to the complexities and multifaceted nature of educational policy development in inter-war era (1918–1945), with specific reference to British colonial Africa and South Africa. It will also hopefully provide a set of elementary tools for all of those interested in educational policy-making strategies that seek to promote meaningful social, economic and political change in an age of uncertainty
