“…I want the community work to take more visual symbolic space (Bourdieu, Sapiro, & McHale, 1991) These failures, however, create potent possibilities for weaving across identity To do such weaving means to resist falling away into our differences and to risk the confusing task of making connections.…”

This article explores the chimeric hybridity of portable camera, sound recorder, filmmaker, and audience as research and activist cyborg weaving. Situating filmmaking in critical qualitative, ethnographic, and sociological traditions, I share my journey into becoming woman and machine-cine-eye-ear-in the struggle for continued access to public education. Throughout this article I use lowercase letters to deemphasize the importance of the individualized human in cyborg connection.

“…While this contestation means that such practices are always subject to change, it is the dominant practices which come to define each field which characterise the peculiar logics at play. Bourdieu (1990Bourdieu ( , 1991Bourdieu ( , 1993 sees society as consisting of a number of quasi-autonomous social fields, each with their own logics of practice, but overarched by a field of power and a field of gender relations (Bourdieu 2000).…”

“…Bourdieu argued that it is this process of accumulation of particular traits, behaviours, properties, titles, academic qualifications, indeed any entity characteristic of the social world, which means that agents potentially exert influence in particular ways. Such accumulation both enables and constrains; it also confers a degree of distinction upon those who possess specific capitals (Bourdieu 1984).…”

“…Consequently, for Bourdieu (1990), fields are social sites in which actors, imbued with particular social dispositions developed over time, the habitus, engage with one another in a process of contest over the forms of capital which collectively constitute the field. Fields limit and enable the activities of those influenced by them; they enforce an individual 'nomos', or specific law, which gives each field its individual character (Bourdieu 1998a).…”

Teacher professional development as an effect of policy and practice: a Bourdieuian analysis

This article draws on Bourdieu's field theory and related concepts of habitus and capitals, to explore policy implementation in relation to a particular case of teacher professional development in Queensland, Australia. This implementation process is described as an effect of the interplay between what is called the policy field and the field of teachers' work. The policy field demonstrates intra-field tensions between the federal Quality Teacher Programme (QTP) and a raft of state policies, particularly those associated with the Queensland metapolicy, Queensland State Education 2010 (QSE2010). To investigate the effects of this complex policy ensemble, the article draws upon the experiences of principals and a group of teachers engaged in professional development across a cluster of six schools in south-east Queensland, Australia. The specific focus is on the 'Curriculum Board', a cross-school body created by the principals in the participating schools, and its mediated work in policy implementation and teacher learning. The article analyses the effects of the involvement of the principals in the creation of the board, the limiting impact of QTP requirements to involve consultants rather than support for teacher release, and the limited influence of the board on teacher learning and policy implementation in the individual schools. By doing so, the analysis shows the disjunctions between the logics of practice of the policy field and that of teachers' work, and the ways in which the differing habitus of principals and teachers and teacher members of the board affected teacher learning and policy implementation. It is argued that effective implementation requires learning within and across fields, and more reflexive habitus of policy makers, principals and teachers.

The housing security afforded by later life housing circumstances of ex-service households of Queensland: a life course perspective

This thesis investigates the relationship between service in the Defence Forces, outcomes of that service and later life housing outcomes of ex-service households. In particular, the research focuses on households eligible for Australian Department of Veterans' Affairs (DVA) benefits and support because of the past service of a household member. The outcome of key interest is housing security, defined in this study as the independence, security and control afforded beneficiaries by their household and housing circumstances.The attainment of housing security in later life is of major importance in an ageing Australia as it supports ageing in place, or the desire to remain at home or in a familiar place, and provides a sense of wellbeing and belonging necessary for successful ageing (Australian Institute Health & Welfare, 2013; Boldy et al., 2013;. Without housing security households are at risk of more frequent residential relocation Parkinson, 2010), housing affordability problems and housing stress associated with the escalating costs of maintaining adequate housing as they age (Yates & Bradbury, 2009), and potentially, premature admission to expensive residential aged care settings (Faulkner & Bennett, 2002). Housing security is broader than tenure outcomes alone A cross sectional design with a postal survey method was employed to capture recent and past events and outcomes that influenced current household and housing circumstances, and the housing security afforded the household. The self-administered questionnaire was piloted with a convenience sample of beneficiaries. The research site was Queensland, as it was the iii state with the most ex-service households residing in rental housing (Department of Veteran's Affairs, 2010).In the main study, a systematic random sample of DVA Total Beneficiaries data base of Queensland identified 3000 households for inclusion. One beneficiary from each household was invited to participate with a response rate of 25 per cent. A representative sample of 729 Queensland beneficiary households were analysed.Comparative analysis of the WWII and post WWII households reveals differences within the life domains of health, employment, income and relationships. These four life domains are heavily implicated in the attainment and maintenance of housing security Parkinson, 2010). The use of a purposively designed housing security scale to estimate the level of housing security afforded by housing circumstances provides the means of comparing between and within groups, service effects and other life domains.The majority of ex-service households are securely housed. This is demonstrated by their level of equity in their dwelling and land, and broader housing circumstances. Beneficiaries rate their circumstances as providing moderate to high housing security. While ranking of housing security is closely associated with the level of household equity in their housing, other factors intervene. A series of multiple regression analyses reveal which life course factors are significa...
