2)  Seminar at Deakin University - Lollies or Lolita: Contemporary redefinitions of childhood
 
Presenter:  Dr Gwenda Davey, Honorary Fellow, Cultural Heritage Centre for Asia and the Pacific
 
Worrying about definitions of childhood is not a new phenomenon:  writers such as Aries, de Mause, Freud, Piaget, Erikson and more recently Neil Postman (Disappearance of Childhood) have all written extensively on the subject.
 
Contemporary angst about childhood has come out of the academy into the general population, with concerns about obesity, child abuse and the sexualisation of children.
 
In their book Children of the Lucky Country? (2005), Stanley, Richardson and Prior contend that Australian society has let children down on many dimensions, although they acknowledge that some research is inconclusive.
 
Not only Australian society sees the need for improvement: currently Germany is mounting a campaign of kinderfreundlichkeit, to encourage nationally more positive attitudes towards children, and England's national lottery has recently funded a one billion pound project for children called PlayEngland.
 
Conversely, many primary schools in the United States have abolished playtime (recess) in the wake of George W Bush's No Child Left Behind Act of 2002.
 
Some popular anxiety about childhood can be directly attributed to the culture of fear which pervades our society, and which has been extensively discussed by writers such as the English sociologist Frank Furedi.
 
Fear has also had an effect on the implementation of the Australian Research Council Childhood, Tradition and Change project, initiated in 2006.
 
The news isn't all bad.  Some preliminary findings will be given in a short powerpoint presentation from the National Library's 2005 pilot project into children's play.
 
Traditional play is alive and well in many primary school playgrounds, and through their play children show their intelligence, sensibility and resilience.
 
There is no entry charge and everyone is welcome

INTANGIBLE CULTURAL HERITAGE: A NEW FIELD OF ENDEAVOUR
SYMPOSIUM
 
1 - 3 July 2008
 
Venue: St Peter's Hall, 15 Gisborne Street, East Melbourne
 
This exciting symposium will consider intangible cultural heritage, a relatively new concept in heritage circles. Intangible heritage has assumed considerable international prominence and all national governments have been invited to contribute to the discussion. It involves people and traditions: knowledge, skills, creativity, products, resources, spaces.
 
Questions to be considered include: What is the appropriate relationship of intangible heritage to other elements of conventional heritage such as objects, monuments and sites? What role do traditional rituals, art forms, and crafts play in the life of individuals and contemporary communities?
 
The National Trust of Australia (Victoria) is considering the opportunities and implications for the intangible cultural heritage field. A number of international speakers and well-known local speakers will investigate the concept from many different angles and promote wider debate on the issues.
