Hi. My name is Tristan Ewins. I\'m a freelance writer - based in Australia.
I\'ve been published widely - including in \'On Line Opinion\', \'Znet\', Australia\'s \'Centre for Policy Development\', \'Australian Socialist\', \'Labor Tribune\', \'Arena Magazine\', \'Agora Magazine\', the \'Evatt Foundation\' web site, \'The Canberra Times\', and others. Also, a chapter of mine (on an \'active/critical\' model of Civics and Citizenship education) was published in \'Labor Essays 2004: The Vocal Citizen\'.
I\'m also the moderator of the left-wing Australian discussion group, \'Australian Broad Left Network\'... Feel free to join, participate or look around: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/broadleft/
Anyone reading this is welcome to join the Australian Broad Left Network\' - Australians especially...
And I\'d be glad to meet fellow Australians through Znet too. If you\'re an Australian writer for Znet, feel free to add me as a friend.
That said, I\'d be glad to make friends the world over too.
My academic background is as a First Class Honours Arts graduate - majoring in Sociology. I\'m also qualified as a teacher (insocial studies, history, and English) - but writing is my real passion; and it is something I dearly wish I could make a career from.
Depending on perspective, I guess my politics could be described as \'left social democratic\' \'or \'liberal democratic socialist.\' I hope to make a real difference to debate on the broad Left - in Australia, and worldwide. If you\'re reading this, then - I guess that\'s a pretty good start. :-)
