	Where we stand
		In this scenario, Australia will retain a position of advantage, as a site for finance, education, tourism, and some high-technology industry, as well as for its natural resources, but large sections of the Australian working class will be marginalised and impoverished and the whole class reduced to a much more insecure existence.
		Australia is a centre of finance capital, of a number of multinationals, and of relatively advanced industry, although it is not a big power on the world scale.
		We had and have close links with the Alliance for Workers' Liberty and its predecessors in Britain, but we are committed to developing an analysis of the specifics of Australian politics, Australian history and the Australian working class, and to working out our tactics from that analysis, not by mechanically copying tactics overseas.

	Organising migrant workers
		The key is for Migrant Workers to gain the confidence, skills and knowledge and to get to know the union and then to be able, at an appropriate stage, to organise themselves and to integrate into the mainstream of the GMB when they have the confidence and impetus to do so.

	Statue of Liberty Books
		They found it odd that liberty should be portrayed as a woman when women were not allowed to vote in the US, and in fact only one woman and one small girl were allowed at the unveiling ceremony on the island.
		LIBERTY is chock-full of compelling--sometimes overwhelming--details, including Eiffel's revolutionary use of iron girders in latticelike grids for the internal support, and the discord in the American committee charged with raising money for the pedestal.

		WITH the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of Soviet communism, it became all too easy to pretend that the outcome of the Cold War was an inevitable result of large-scale, impersonal forces that ultimately left totalitarianism exhausted and democratic capitalism triumphant.
		There is a view that the pro-communist left in Australia in decades past was no more than a bunch of naive idealists, rather than what they were - ideological barrackers for regimes of oppression opposed to Australia and its interests.

	A vital part of a global response to international migration: Why the Migrant Workers Convention Matters - Amnesty ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-05)
		Human rights abuses of migrant workers, in particular irregular migrant workers, range from having passports or other identity documents confiscated, having their salaries routinely withheld, to verbal and physical abuse at the hands of the employers or a lack of access to proper housing and health care.
		The content of the Migrant Workers Convention is not necessarily well-understood by politicians and decision-makers, with many fearing that this would add to already existing obligations, or alternatively a lack of awareness that many existing human rights obligations already apply to migrants.
		Migrant workers often pay significant sums of money to sub-contractors and recruitment agencies for jobs and salaries that do not exist; and on arrival in the country of destination are forced to work off their debt in highly abusive conditions without legally enforceable contracts or work visas.
