SUMMARY:Book Launch: AUSTRALIA\, NO COUNTRY FOR REVOLUTIONARIES
DESCRIPTION:Dr Simone Battiston\, Senior Lecturer\, Swinburne University of Technology\, will launch No Country for Revolutionaries\, followed by a Q&A with the author Gianfranco Cresciani.  \nBetween 1971 and 1991 the Italian Communist Party endeavoured to mobilise Italian migrants in Australia in order to extend its influence and power\, attract their vote and defend their rights. Its establishment of an ‘autonomous’ Federation in Sydney resulted in a troubled relationship with the Communist Party of Australia and in grassroots surveillance of Italian migrants by the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation. This book tells their story during the Cold War.

SUMMARY:Exhibition launch: Cold War Games
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Launch \n5pm\, Thursday 7 March 2019 \nGallery Downstairs\, RHSV. \nFree event. \nResearch: Harry Blutstein \nIn 1956\, an Olympic year\, the world was beset with Cold War anxieties. Tensions between East and West had been heightened less than a month before the Games when the USSR invaded Hungary to crush an uprising. Then Israeli\, French and British armies invaded and occupied Egypt’s Sinai and Suez Canal Zone. Would the Melbourne Olympic Games be remembered as the “friendly” Games\, a sea of tranquillity in a stormy world\, or would they become a victim of the Cold War? Would our moment in the sun be blown away by revolutions and wars raging over 15\,000 kilometres away? \nReporting on the Olympic Games for The New Yorker Magazine\, sports writer John Lardner suggested that Melbourne had found the antidote for the tensions that plagued the rest of the world. “Australia is enjoying almost a world monopoly on peace\, harmony\, civility\, understanding\, and other such symptoms of civilization and good breeding\, while Europe is behaving like someone you would think twice about introducing to your sister.” \nKeeping Australia safe from the frigid winds of the Cold War was ASIO. However it had never faced a challenge like the one posed by the Olympic Games. Its forte was hunting down “reds under the beds”: local comrades in the universities\, unions and the media who might be run as agents of influence by Soviet spies. In 1954\, Australians discovered just how real the threat was when Vladimir Petrov defected\, as did his wife. He was Third Secretary at the Soviet Embassy in Canberra\, as well as being a lieutenant colonel in the KGB. \nThese factors lead to the Melbourne Olympics becoming the first Cold War Games.

SUMMARY:Vida Goldstein and Maud Wood Park
DESCRIPTION:The RHSV is delighted that distinguished historian\, Professor Marilyn Lake AO\, will deliver the RHSV’s inaugural Women’s History Lecture\, Vida Goldstein and Maud Wood Park: the political significance of Australian-American women’s friendships. \n\nMarilyn Lake\, D.Litt\, FAHA\, FASSA\, AO\nFormer President of the Australian Historical Association\nProfessorial Fellow\, University of Melbourne.\n\nAuthor\, most recently\, of Progressive New World: How Settler Colonialism and TransPacific Exchange Shaped American Reform\, Harvard University Press\, 2019. \nVida Goldstein first met American suffragist Maud Wood Park in Boston\, when on a lecturing tour following her attendance at the first International Woman Suffrage Conference\, in Washington DC\, in early 1902. Seven years later\, Park travelled to Melbourne\, where Goldstein\, president of the Women’s Political Association and editor of the Woman Voter\, introduced her to local women activists and future Prime Minister Andrew Fisher. Park came to Australia to investigate Australian women’s use of the vote post-suffrage. ‘The question is often asked\,’ she wrote\, “After woman suffrage what?” Sometimes the asker means what methods of organization will women employ; sometimes\, what ends will they seek; sometimes\, what results will they obtain’. After meeting party and non-party woman leaders\, in Melbourne and Sydney\, Park decided she had gained a ‘pretty definite idea of what women’s Causes”’ were. Convinced that an independent non-party stance was the best way forward for women in politics\, Park returned to the United States\, where\, following ten more years of relentless lobbying\, passage of the 19th Amendment was finally secured. \nIn 1920 Park became inaugural President of the non-party National League of Women Voters. \n \n\n\n\n\nDrinks 5:15pm\nLecture 6pm\nBooks will be available for sale and signing.
