The notion of home as a site separate from the public sphere of work and politics, as a private realm that provides a respite from the public sphere and facilitates making and carrying out individual preferences, is found throughout academic literature and popular notions of home. This article provides an overview of privacy as a meaning of home, with particular focus on the social, ideological, and political underpinnings of the notion of home as a private space, and its historical transformations. The article begins with an outline of what privacy means in relation to home, its historical emergence, and its social and material correlates. It then turns to an overview of privatism, as a contemporary manifestation of privacy. Finally, the article turns to the theoretical and empirical challenges that attempt to dismantle the nexus between home and privacy, and outlines a different conceptualisation. 2013-04-18T13:20:52.813Z ]]> Suburban homes [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:25250 Suburban homes are central to scholarship on house and home across diverse disciplines. This article explains and illustrates this pivotal position of suburban homes in research on home. It traces their origins in the late nineteenth century, connections to a public–private divide, and an ethos of being closer to nature. In the twentieth century, suburban houses became increasingly prevalent as the material form in which home is made across diverse parts of the world. The ideological referents of the suburban home – nuclear family, gendered division of labour, middle-class respectability – have not significantly altered in its 150-year history, though critiques of the suburban home as ideal home are becoming more voluminous. 2013-04-17T19:40:19.695Z ]]> Greenbelts [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:25229 2 pages(s) 2013-04-16T06:53:06.567Z ]]> Peace and justice service of Uruguay/Ei Servicio Paz y Justicia [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:24362 10 pages(s) 2013-02-27T05:25:01.962Z ]]> Uruguay [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:24363 7 pages(s) 2013-02-27T05:24:57.895Z ]]> Venezuela [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:24364 7 pages(s) 2013-02-27T05:24:57.735Z ]]> Fossil record [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:24404 This article is a revision of the previous edition article by Sean R.

Its primary concern is with the computational modeling of linguistic processes pursued as a theoretically oriented exercise whose purpose is either to provide models that help us gain insight into the nature of language and the human language processing mechanism or to support the development of software applications that do useful things with language (an area sometimes referred to as language technology). For some, the term “computational linguistics” is synonymous with natural language processing (NLP); however, from the perspective of the material provided here, NLP is more applications-oriented than CL. Although we provide some pointers to work that describes NLP applications, our primary focus here is on the theoretical underpinnings that CL provides to activities with a more practical focus. The first work in CL dates from the 1950s, when initial attempts were made to automatically translate Russian into English. Until the late 1980s most work in the field was concerned with what we might call symbolic systems, often involving large collections of handwritten rules to model some linguistic phenomenon. Since the late 1980s there has been a significant shift toward statistical methods, where rules and generalizations are learned from data rather than being produced manually; this has become possible only as a result of the combination of, on one hand, vast amounts of data becoming available, particularly via the World Wide Web, and, on the other hand, the immense increases in computer processing power required to execute many iterations over large data sets to derive information from them. In almost all subareas of CL one can generally divide the work pursued into the periods before and after this “statistical revolution.” The material here is organized around the conventional decomposition of linguistic study into phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics. Work that is primarily concerned with speech recognition and synthesis is not covered. Primarily concern is with work on the processing of English; again, much of the work in CL is applicable to other languages, but English holds a privileged position as the focus of most research. 2012-02-23T12:50:38.300Z ]]> Cultural capital http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:17662 5 pages(s) 2012-02-17T21:21:00.019Z ]]> Cultural statistics http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:17663 8 pages(s) 2012-02-17T21:20:52.945Z ]]> Esscher transform [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:17610 4 page(s) 2012-02-14T03:24:20.420Z ]]> Stochastic control [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:17611 8 page(s) 2012-02-14T03:24:13.997Z ]]> Medieval political philosophy [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:17525 Medieval philosophy is the philosophy produced in Western Europe between Boethius and Descartes, a period of over one thousand years. Medieval political philosophy is the part of medieval philosophy that is concerned with political matters. Philosophical writing about politics during the middle ages (as during the early modern period) was often an attempt to influence public events, and the history of the subject therefore involves reference to those events. It also involves reference to developments in medieval culture, e.g., the renaissances of the ninth and twelfth centuries, and to the development of institutions such as the legal system and the universities. The strong relationship during this period between philosophy and religion also complicates the story. These “extra-philosophical” connections are among the reasons why political philosophy underwent considerable development in the course of the middle ages, as religious and political thinking was modified by cultural developments and the stress of events.

These signals are functionally referential and have properties indicating that they encode relatively specific information about eliciting events. The classification of a signal as functionally referential requires consideration of both the caller’s behavior and the receiver’s response. Thus, signal production and perception assume equal importance. Referential signals should be structurally discrete with a degree of stimulus specificity. Responses to referential signals should be specific and incompatible with responses to alternative signals. To date, factors associated with the evolution of referential signaling include sociality, habitat characteristics, and strategies for avoiding predation. 2011-09-27T06:11:01.065Z ]]> Indigenous traditions - Australia [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:14510 The spirit of sustainability is promoted within the religion and philosophy of the Australian Aboriginal people.

That separation has historically included both an individual’s activities outside of the home (i.e., institutional segregation) and their residential location. Segregation, for example, of the African-American population in the southern states of America during the first two-thirds of the twentieth century included separate: educational instruction, public facilities, restaurants, and transportation. The most extreme form of segregation was apartheid in South Africa. Despite the removal of this institutional segregation in most developed countries the separation of people on the basis of race, ethnicity, or religion in terms of residential location persists. Much of this residential segregation relates to the low educational attainment levels of the unskilled ethnic population, which determines their position in the labor market and in turn their position in the housing market. Some of that residential segregation is viewed as a positive outcome – where it provides support for recent migrants – other forms are considered bad. Where spatial assimilation is the public policy, intergenerational residential segregation is viewed as problematic (i.e., that of the African-Americans in American cities). By contrast, under multiculturalism, the development of separate ethnic communities is desirable in the long term – a city of communities. So despite support for multicultural immigration programs in most developed countries, supporting the goals of spatial assimilation and multiculturalism are considered by many to be in conflict. 2011-05-25T22:04:20.750Z ]]> Land rights [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:12712 Property rights in general and land rights in particular have provided an underlying focus for development of intercultural relations between indigenous and settler populations in many areas. Starting with an exploration of competing discourses of property and human rights in international law, this article considers the interplay of legal, anthropological, and political discourses in delivering and/or denying indigenous peoples rights to their traditional territories. Drawing largely on the experiences of former British colonies, this article documents the importance of land rights as legal argument, cultural relationship, social movement, political proposition, and policy program. It explores the implications of this history of land rights for geographical thinking on key concepts such as human territoriality, boundaries, cultural landscapes, and human–nature relations. It advocates a wider consideration of indigenous rights as a basis for rethinking geography's relevance to indigenous futures rather than a limited focus on questions of land rights in isolation. 2011-05-25T22:04:17.142Z ]]> Ethical issues in research [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:12714 All methods in human geography raise ethical questions, and in particular, questions about ways of relating to research subjects/participants and the social role of research. While there are no agreed answers to these questions across the discipline, consistent answers are proposed within the broad methodological frameworks of quantitative, qualitative, and action research. Important ethical issues include, but are not confined to, privacy and confidentiality, consent, and power relations. Ethical issues are increasingly reviewed by a number of different peer and institutional means, and though human geographers have been critical of review by human ethics committees, greater engagement with these processes is now occurring. 2011-05-25T22:04:11.270Z ]]> Eritrea-Ethiopia Claims Commission [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:13097 7 page(s) 2011-05-25T21:48:15.078Z ]]> Inbreeding and outbreeding http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:12554 9 page(s) 2011-04-12T13:11:06.895Z ]]> Myth/mythology and fairy tales [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:11928 5 page(s) 2011-02-23T07:50:25.608Z ]]> Film and fairy tales [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:11930 5 page(s) 2011-02-23T07:50:25.254Z ]]> Lee, Tanith [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:11931 2 page(s) 2011-02-23T07:50:19.069Z ]]> Pratchett, Terry [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:11932 2 page(s) 2011-02-23T07:50:18.709Z ]]> Religion [dictionary entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:11763 2 page(s) 2011-02-11T06:21:34.987Z ]]> Asia, Central - Ancient [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:11495 5 page(s) 2011-01-27T22:30:48.812Z ]]> Alcohol [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:11485 4 page(s) 2011-01-27T02:10:34.537Z ]]> Inner Eurasia [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:11487 8 page(s) 2011-01-27T02:10:32.824Z ]]> Creation myths [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:11486 5 page(s) 2011-01-27T02:10:28.791Z ]]> Population growth as engine of history [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:11489 5 page(s) 2011-01-27T02:10:28.030Z ]]> Periodization overview [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:11488 6 page(s) 2011-01-27T02:10:27.902Z ]]> Science overview [encyclopaedia entry] http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:11490 10 page(s) 2011-01-27T02:10:24.062Z ]]>
