  • Summary

    In this section we explore the legal, ideological, philosophical and theoretical contexts of Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand. The aim is to provide an overview of some of the important considerations in undertaking an editing assignment in these settings. It is not meant as a substitute for legal advice, nor as a treatise on any preferred political or social ideology, philosophy or theory. My own perspectives and bias will no doubt be evident, so you are advised to take it all with a large grain of salt! In other words, to be a critical reader.

    Use the discussions presented here as a sounding board and a starting point for development of your own approach to editing and editorial practice, and to underpin a sound rationale for the editorial decisions you make.
