Analysis of Australian politicians speeches

While competing interpretations of Australian history occasionally attract controversy, there is a need for a comprehensive analysis, over time, of the significance of histories and history making for Australian politicians. In taking the longer view of Australian political speech and thought since the Federation, this data will provide a stronger foundation for both political engagement with historical themes and public appreciation of the continuing role of history in contemporary policy debates. The data comprises comprehensive qualitative analysis, using key search terms and themes, over time, of speeches of Australian politicians. Sources used include Hansard, other occasional speeches in public records, political party records, and Australian Parliamentary Library resources.尽管针对澳大利亚历史的竞争性阐释偶尔会引发争议，但学界仍有必要开展长期全面的分析，以探究历史叙事与历史建构之于澳大利亚政界人士的意义。本数据集立足于澳大利亚联邦成立以来的政治言论与思想发展脉络，将为围绕历史主题开展的政治实践，以及公众深化对历史在当代政策辩论中持续作用的认知，提供更为坚实的研究基础。该数据集通过核心检索词与主题，对澳大利亚政界人士的演讲文本展开了长期的全面质性分析，所用数据源包括《汉萨德议会议事录（Hansard）》、公共档案记录中的零散公开演讲、政党档案以及澳大利亚议会图书馆馆藏资源。
