Working Papers
The two papers available here were presented at the 1999 CHCI Annual Meeting
in Brisbane, Australia. Entitled “The Humanities, Arts and Public Culture
in Two Hemispheres,” the conference took place at the Queensland Art
Gallery and focused on the ways in which the public cultural sphere is being
affected by processes of privatization.
