'This is the first major collection to reimagine and analyse the role of the creative arts in building resilient and inclusive regional communities. Bringing together Australia's leading theorists in the creative industries,as well as case studies from practitioners working in the creative and performing arts and new material from targeted research projects, the book reconceptualizes the very meaning of regionalism and the position–and potential–of creative spaces in non-metropolitan centres.'

1 'No Arms Other than Paper' : Salvador Torrents and the Formation of Hispanic Migrant Identity in Northern Australia, 1916-50 Robert Mason , 2010 single work criticism
— Appears in: Australian Historical Studies , June vol. 41 no. 2 2010; (p. 166-180)
'This article investigates northern Australia's Spanish-speaking community, in order to probe the formation of migrant identity and the perception of Australian society. The community communicated extensively with other members of the global Hispanic Diaspora throughout Europe and the Americas, and used this correspondence to reflect on their experiences in Australia. One individual in particular, Salvador Torrents, wrote a large number of articles and short stories, demonstrating the complex interplay between local and international issues. Migrants used this interaction of local and global events, and the framework provided by transnational Hispanic debate, to critique Australian society and migrants' place within it.' - Author's abstract
