People Educated At Caulfield Grammar School
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of ...

Australian Journal Of International Affairs
The ''Australian Journal of International Affairs'' is an academic journal that was established in 1947 as ''Australian Outlook''. It is published by Routledge on behalf of the Australian Institute of International Affairs. Its forerunner was the ''Austral-Asiatic Bulletin'', which was published from 1936 by the Victorian Branch of the Institute until the Institute decided that it needed a journal "so that each branch of the AIIA could feel ownership of the publication." It has been suggested that a focus on the Australian war effort and destruction of Europe during World War II made the focus on the "Asiatic" outdated and prompted the editors of the new journal to name it ''Australian Outlook''. The journal marked a shift in focus for Australian International Relations scholarship which until then, and reflected in the ''Austral-Asiatic Bulletin'' considered questions of the development of the internal territories of Australia, particularly the Northern Territory, as an "internat ...
