It was, The Construction of the Legal Identity: ‘Governmentality’ in Australian Legal Education. I am "attempting" to use governmentality combined with critical whiteness theory to explore the construction of racialised subjectivitites within Anangu Education in South Australia's Pitjantjatjara Lands. I actually read your paper some time ago and scoured it with my very fine-toothed comb. I've only just discovered this site and signed up ... to notice your name. It's quite weird to put a face to a finely-scoured article. The strange part is, my latent vision of you appears to be quite correct. I'll put links to my articles up soon ... the journal that published them didn't end up completing the final corrections; I can't have that! So I'll post them on the web myself.

About me
I'm currently an Associate Lecturer in the School of Justice, Faculty of Law, QUT. I have recently completed my PhD.

I teach on gender and the criminal justice system, introductory sociology and criminology, and on terrorism and political violence.
Research interests
My PhD utilised Foucault's work on governmentality to examine the construction of the legal identity through practices of undergraduate Australian legla education. I hope to continue to undertake research in this area.

I am also in the early stages of developing research in the area of same-sex intimate partner violence.
Key theorists used
Foucault, Rose and Miller, Dean
