Australian is the land the rules and regulations. I don’t think I have ever lived in country that is so highly regulated like this one. Australian has about seven states and they all govern themselves thus they have their own laws that maybe different from other states. The Australian government, state and territory government legislation exists to protect businesses, consumers, individuals, the environment and the community. This enables a conducive environment for business to flourish as well as to promote fair-trading and competition. One would ask why should governments spend enough time putting place such regulations. This is because without laws to govern how businesses operate and interact with their suppliers, customers and fellow businesses, there will be chaos every well and it would be each man for himself and God for us all. Thus, regulations stipulate what can and cannot be done in the business environment and what can be done when conflict arises. For example, If Mangoes for Charity promised customers that it would refund them up to $20 if they bought 3 boxes and referred at least three new customers to buy mangoes. If this company breached such an arrangement then, the Australian Consumer law would provide a service by protecting the consumer’s right. Thus, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission could argue in favour of the consumer that the business misled customers when it informed them that they had no cooling off rights. It was not explained to
Australian Consumer Law is a single national law, which is, applies in all jurisdictions, to all business and to all industry sectors. The ACL also represents a new approach to considering consumer policy issues, with the Australian Government and the States and Territories working closely together to consider develop and implement changes.
What does it mean to be Australian? Is it our multiculturalism, our wicked sense of humour or is it our recognisable accent? We are unique, we have thousands of species of native animals and we are proud of it. Australia has its own slang, which could be counted as a language in itself and we have neighbours of all different races. Australia is multicultural and is extremely accepting of others, no matter the country from which they have immigrated from, it is an Australian value. Furthermore, we respect and accept others religions and cultures into our society.
Merry Christmas! Christmas is a special time of the year. People all around the world enjoy the Christmas season. Some traditions are specific in their country. Australia and the United States share some traditions, however, other things are completely different.
There are many diverse interpretations of the words “Australian Identity”. The national anthem, as evidenced in Stand Up, is a primarily white interpretation of Australia and the Australian identity, with many of the lines ignoring the Indigenous people of Australia (Perkins et al, 2012). Another form of the “Australian Identity” was one presented by Prime Minister Paul Keating in his Redfern Address in 1992. He proclaimed that “Australia is a first-rate social democracy…truly the land of the fair go and the better chance”. This idea presented represents an egalitarian society, where every single human has an equal opportunity at life. Yet another, shown in the songs Paul Kelly sang, but especially in “this land is mine” is the difference between the identity of Indigenous Australians and non-Indigenous Australians (Kelly et al, 2001). Each of these texts addressed a major issue. Stand Up compared the relative value of tradition and the right to freedom of expression. Keating’s speech expressed the need for justice and recognition of both the stolen generation and the injustices done to the Indigenous people as a whole. Kelly’s songs represent the importance of the land to Indigenous people and why the “returning of the land” is so important. Although they each mentioned a major issue, the texts all gave solutions to these issues, from reiterating the importance of the basic human right of freedom of speech in Stand Up, to explaining the role and qualities of the Aboriginal
Australia has been a culturally diverse society since long before white settlement. The indigenous people had many different cultures, languages and customs, even members of the First Fleet came from a number of culturally significant backgrounds. Diversity in Australia took large strides 67 years ago with the beginning of the Snowy River Scheme which promoted skilled immigrants to come here and work, because as a nation just after World War II we lacked the manpower and knowledge to complete such a large and complicated project.
In the study of Australian modern architecture, the term regionalism has constantly been discussed. In an architectural sense, regionalism can be understood as an architecture that is derived from its local setting. In relevance to this, elements of regionalism can be found in the works of Sydney Ancher and Peter Muller, two figures that had significant influence in Australian architecture discourse whose works can be seen as being Australian. Nevertheless, as much as how their works respond to regionalism, the proof of overseas principles being adopted is clear.
Australia’s national identity was built upon the hard masculine foundations using the harsh nature of the bush to exemplify these character traits. For many Australians, the ANZAC troops were the crystallization of the new identity. Following the crystallisation of the new identity, Australians started creating the ideal Australian, making the ideal Australian the traditional ideas of Australian national identity. The ideal Australian was known to be white, working class, sporty, male who were fiercely independent, and practical. It is important that we don’t go back to the traditional ideas of Australians national identity. (NEEDS TO BE FINISHED)
Have you ever noticed how not all countries have the same laws? Countries have different laws because they are in their own area away from others. This is meaning that since all of the other countries aren't joined with the U.S. they can't make us do what they do or how they do it and we can't make them do things how we do. One of the reasons countries fight is because they have differences and dislike on each other, which drives them to fight. So, in this essay you'll see how similar and different the laws are between the United States and Australia.
There are many people in and around the sports world who believe great athletes can play most any sport. Michael Jordan, Hershel Walker and Bo Jackson are great examples of athletes who had a natural ability to conquer multiple sports. Now imagine for a
Since colonial times, sporting successes especially in cricket have assisted the emerging nation of Australia to establish its identity. The prevalence of cricket in Australia constitutes what Markovits and Hellerman (2001) coin a, “hegemonic sports culture”, and subsequently represents an influential part of Australian culture. However, the modernity discourse undermines the degree to which Australian identity is taking into account British Legacy.Today the Australian culture is comprised of a differing scope of encounters, nationalities and cultures, subsequently confounding the idea that Australian identity is based on British heritage. The verbose accentuation set on Australia’s
