This research breaks new ground by examining the history and theological education of the Adelaide Bible Institute (ABI) between the years 1924 and 1962. ABI is now known as the Bible College of South Australia (BCSA). The College is an interdenominational evangelical Protestant bible training institute in Adelaide, South Australia, and was commenced in 1924 for the purpose of training young people for missionary service. This study was undertaken to research the history and theological education of ABI, its place in the international bible college movement and its contribution to the evangelical world of interdenominational missions. / Thesis (MA)--University of South Australia, 2000

The main hypothesis argues for the strategic role of play in the constitution of 'self-making'. This is contextualised within an analytical framework of 'social praxeology', highlighting the importance of social networks to the ways the teenage participants themselves perceived and negotiated subjectivities. Argues that the young participants in this study acquired their sense of cultural (self) identities through three aspects of 'bodily praxis' - place, space and play. While the understandings of the girls and their familial and social groupings provides the focal point to the analysis, these were framed within the perspectives of sixty-five other young people and over fifty significant adults in various social institutions and wider social networks and further contextualised by a reflexive analysis of the research process itself. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Adelaide, Dept. of Anthropology, 1999

Este trabalho de dissertação tem como objetivo analisar a dinâmica de continuidade socioterritorial e econômica, dos camponeses do P.A Irmã Adelaide, bem como entender a situação socioeconômica das famílias observando as possibilidades e expectativas de continuidade socioterritorial perante as contradições do modo de produção capitalista. Para realização da análise baseou-se em uma revisão bibliográfica e leituras conceituais referentes ao tema da pesquisa, foram coletadas informações acerca de fonte(s) de renda e através de trabalhos de campo, aplicação de questionários e entrevistas, a respeito do cultivo nos lotes, número de membros das famílias residentes no P.A e fora dele, motivos que levaram à migração, dificuldades encontradas pelas famílias que permanecem. O P.A Irmã Adelaide faz parte do município de Miracema do Tocantins - TO, conta com 106 famílias assentadas, foi criado em 1998, e seu nome é uma homenagem a freira militante Irmã Adelaide, assassinada em 1985 em virtude de estar ligada às questões de disputas por terras e conflitos no sul do estado do Pará sempre defendendo o trabalhador camponês. Dentro do contexto histórico de formação do movimento que lutou pela criação do P.A Irmã Adelaide, podemos destacar a participação direta de pessoas que vieram de vários cantos do Brasil. No entanto a maioria dos trabalhadores é de origem do próprio município de Miracema do Tocantins – TO. A presença de trabalhadores de outras regiões nos faz acreditar como é alta a demanda de trabalhadores sem terra também nos outros estados brasileiros. A realidade do projeto de assentamento Irmã Adelaide não é diferente da maioria dos assentamentos existentes no Tocantins, guardada suas devidas especificidades do cotidiano e da luta por permanecer na terra. Observou-se que no assentamento predomina as culturas de ciclos curtos, como é o caso do milho, da mandioca, do feijão e do arroz, para o sustento familiar. A renda da pequena produção agrícola e da pecuária no P.A Irmã Adelaide pode se aproximar ao valor de um salário mínimo ou mais, Fo identificado a predominância de problemas sociais ainda não solucionados, e que devem ser superados, como reforma das habitações, atendimento médico no posto de saúde, a busca por créditos bancários para que possam investir no cultivo da produção. Diante disso as perspectivas dos assentados são de continuar no Projeto de Assentamento tendo em vista que esperam serem atendidos pelas políticas de Reforma agrária do governo federal. / This work of dissertation had as objective to analyze the dynamics of socioterritorial and economic continuity, of the peasants of P.A Sister Adelaide; as well as to understand the socioeconomic situation of families observing the possibilities and expectations of socioterritorial continuity in the face of the contradictions of the capitalist mode of production. The analysis was based on a bibliographical review and conceptual readings related to the research theme, information was collected about income source (s) and through fieldwork, application of questionnaires and interviews, regarding the cultivation in the lots ; number of family members residing in and outside Brazil, reasons that led to the migration, difficulties encountered by the families that remain. FrA. Adelaide is part of the municipality of Miracema do Tocantins - TO, has 106 families settled, was created in 1988, its name is a nun tribute militant Sister Adelaide. Murdered in 1985 for being always linked to issues of disputes over land and conflict in the southern state of Pará. Within the historical context of formation of the movement that fought for the creation of PA Sister Adelaide, we can highlight the direct participation of people who came from several corners of Brazil. Most of the workers are from the municipality of Miracema do Tocantins - TO. The presence of workers from other regions makes us believe how high the demand for landless workers is also high in other Brazilian states. The reality of the Sister Adelaide settlement project is no different from most of the existing settlements in Tocantins, preserving their proper specificities of daily life and the struggle to remain on earth. It was observed that short-cycle crops predominate in the settlement, as is the case of maize, cassava, beans and rice, for family sustenance. The income of small-scale agricultural and livestock production in Sister Adelaide PA can approach a minimum wage value or more, it has been identified, the predominance of social problems still unresolved, such as that must be overcome, such as housing reform, care doctor in the health clinic, and bank credit so that they can invest in the cultivation of the products, the prospects of the settlers are to continue in the PA and that they are attended by the agrarian Reform policies.

Finds that the content of the Adelaide medical course conformed with British standards, and gave adequate teaching by the standards of the day. Undergraduate teaching and postgraduate opportunities can be seen as Anglo-Australian synergies made possible by formal and informal linkages with the British empire in its last century. / Thesis (M.D.)--University of Adelaide, Depts. of Surgery and History, 2000
