The most recent of these studies completed in 2006 by the Australian Senate Standing Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs reveals the connectedness between these policies and accounting technologies. This study examines the roles played by accounting in the constitution and implementation of such programs. The analysis highlights not only how accounting facilitated the problematisation of Aboriginal children as a site for government, but also how accounting technologies enabled the constitution and translation of the indenture programs into practice. This study provides an historical context in which to comprehend both contemporary Indigenous experiences and the role of accounting in the subordination of Indigenous peoples. The analysis reveals how the reliance on accounting techniques, and the prioritisation of accountability relations with the State in the name of good governance helped mask the extent of the inequities and the racial (and economic) discrimination against the Aboriginal population.

Research has disclosed both the negligent administration of stations by State Governments and the fraudulent expropriation of moneys held on trust for workers. Substantial evidence of fiduciary breaches of trust on the part of both the New South Wales and Queensland Governments has been uncovered. Both of these States have established compensation schemes for victims of stolen wages. By contrast the Northern Territory (which was the largest employer of Indigenous workers nationally) and the Commonwealth have failed to address the fact that, with few exceptions, Indigenous workers went unpaid for nearly half a century. This lecture will provide a moral and legal argument for Commonwealth government compensation. It is a timely call for action in the aftermath of the 2006 Commonwealth Senate Inquiry into Stolen Wages.

Researching, teaching or learning about entrepreneurship is very different to researching teaching or learning about functional disciplines such as accounting and finance. In functional disciplines there is generally a well defined skill set, this is not the case with entrepreneurship as it is as much a mind set as it is a set of activities. Identification of opportunities, learning about them and taking actions all take place within a context.

In recent years, the return of digital materials from collections worldwide has become a significant and efficacious strategy for supporting cultural survival there. The sense of history that these materials bring is proving invaluable in maintaining well-being and community in Arnhem Land amid the hardships of local life. This lecture presents early research on the ARC project currently being led by Neparrŋa Gumbula to explore rare Yolŋu materials from Arnhem Land dating from the 1920s that are held in the University of Sydney Archives, and to assess their significance to contemporary Yolŋu communities and the broader public.
