Women hold between 40 and 50 per cent of all academic appointments in the discipline of history in Australia. Even among the social science disciplines, which are seen as more welcoming to women than ...STEM disciplines, this fact makes history a 'success' in terms of gender equity. Measures of success, however, go beyond the presence of women. In taking a deeper dive into data I found a more complicated picture of 'success', where women's increased participation in the discipline is concurrent with men's continued dominance in 'hard' disciplinary fields such as political history, a decline in the overall numbers of historians, and increased questioning of the authority of the discipline.

From the sources relevant to the topic, the ...choice here falls on Václav Havel’s public speeches since they offer particularly rich study material. Attention is paid to the political, social, and cultural contexts that have served as a stimulus for each of the analyzed texts, as well as the intention, implicit in them, to model the environment in which they are to function. The paper also touches upon the themes of historical and cultural memory, personal choice, the intellectuals’ resignation, and the sense of cultural isolationism, among others.

Hungarians closely ...followed the National Struggle against the occupiers of Anatolia and supported it. Moreover, they and Hungarian Parliament welcomed its success alongside both the signing of the Lausanne Peace Treaty and the proclamation of the Turkish Republic. Likewise, developments in the domestic politics of the young Turkish Republic and the important laws enacted in the 1920s continued to attract the attention of Hungarians. In this study, we shall examine the launch of the Turkish Grand National Assembly and the important developments in Turkish political life during the early years of the Turkish Republic – through the lens of Hungarian sources. We also will look at the conditions under which Assembly came to be, with a particular focus on Ankara, the centre of the National Struggle. Our primary aim is to try and understand how Hungarians viewed the conditions under which the parliament. Many a report published in the 1930s by Hungarian ambassadors to Turkey during the Atatürk’s reign frequently cite the TBMM, the People’s Party, and Turkey’s political climate at the time. They furthermore talk about how the TBMM was structured and functioned, thus offering us a different perspective on political life in Turkey from the angle of foreign diplomats.

Takes issue with a recent interpretation by British High Commissioner Laura Clarke of New Zealand’s economic strategy in response to the United Kingdom’s entry to the European Economic Community ...(EEC) in 1973, beginning with the situation in 1961, when the United Kingdom first gave notice of its intention to apply for EEC membership. Looks at a representative sample of notes made from official and unofficial papers of the time, and from oral interviews with key actors. Looks at how New Zealand’s response to this threat to its economic security has been described as a ‘fight for survival’, suggesting that London abandoned its long-time trade partner, and creating at least a palpable sense of anxiety among New Zealanders at the prospect of British entry to the EEC.

Hovhannes Katchaznouni, an architect, was one of the most important members of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnaksutyun). During the Bolsheviks, who took over the administration with the ...Bolshevik revolution in Tsarist Russia, the states of Armenia, Georgia, and Azerbaijan in the South Caucasus, where Armenia is located, entered into a formation that acted separately from the Bolsheviks. However, the existence of the formation did not last long due to problems such as historical problems, border conflicts, etc. among them. After the collapse of the Transcaucasian Seym, the three states of the region, Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Armenia, respectively, declared their independence and created new independent states. Katchaznouni became the first prime minister of the newly established Republic of Armenia. However, with the Bolsheviks entering the South Caucasus region with the Red Army, Soviet administrations were established in these states. In the meantime, Katchaznouni, who fled abroad, published a series of articles in Chakatamart newspaper under the title What Should Our Way Be? While emphasizing the importance of Dashnaksutyun in his articles and mentioning that the Bolsheviks will always need them, he read a report at the party conference of Dashnaksutyun in 1923; Dashnak sutyun Has Nothing To Do Anymore.In his report, most of his thoughts had changed, he mentioned that they had made mistakes and suggested that Dashnaksutyun had nothing to do anymore and suggested that the party dissolve itself. Immediately after this article, he applied to the Soviet authorities to return to Armenia. After his application was accepted, Katchaznouni returned to Armenia and continued his profession there. Katchaznouni, who was under probation by the Soviet authorities, was arrested in 1937 on charges of continuing his Dashnak activities and died in prison in early 1938 from tuberculosis. Although applications were made by Katchaznouni's daughter to exonerate him of the crimes laid upon him, this did not happen during the Soviet period. However, in the Republic of Armenia, which was established with the collapse of the Soviet Union, it was accepted that he did not commit these crimes, which he was acquitted of the charges against him in 1992 by the decision of the Armenian Public Prosecutor's Office. In this article, Hovhannes Katchaznouni's life was examined chronologically, his arrest process and his death were emphasized, and the report of Dashnaksutyun’s Nothing to Do Anymore, which is one of the most important works he produced throughout his life, was examined in detail and various evaluations were made.
