forfeited individual decision-making powers, especially
in
(1) the economic sphere
(2) law and order
(3) residence
(4) living arrangements
(5) education
(6) health (handed over to white staff)
Question: are these powers (a) personal at Strelley
(b) handed over to community
leaders
(c) handed over to white
staff
2. Autonomy
(Edward River) The staff are the directors and controllers.
The aborigines are the directed and controlled.
The staff and everything associated with them repesent
authority (The Aboriginal council and Aboriginal police
are extensions of this authority).
Authority and life-style are integrated.
Watts (1971:160)
