Between September 1988 and February 1989, Anyinginyi Congress, an Aboriginal community-controlled health organisation, facilitated a collaborative community action against striptease shows in public bars in Tennant Creek. This action resulted in changes to the guidelines of the Northern Territory Liquor Act to regulate striptease shows in public bars and began other processes of addressing alcohol related problems in the community. The composition and strategies of both the pro- and anti-striptease lobbies are analysed within the context of changing power relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people, as epitomised in the growth and consolidation of Aboriginal community-controlled organisations in Tennant Creek. The role of the media in shaping the course and direction of the debates as well as the response of the Northern Territory government as the final arbiter in the striptease conflict are scrutinised. The use of sex to sell alcohol is a legitimate public health concern and community action for healthier public policy is an important strategy in creating supporting environments for health.
1988年9月至1989年2月期间,原住民社区控制的健康组织安因伊尼议会促成了一项针对滕南特克里克公共酒吧脱衣舞表演的社区合作行动。这一行动导致北领地酒类法案的指导方针发生变化,以规范公共酒吧的脱衣舞表演,并开启了解决社区中与酒精相关问题的其他进程。在原住民与非原住民之间权力关系不断变化的背景下,分析了支持和反对脱衣舞表演游说团体的组成和策略,这在滕南特克里克原住民社区控制组织的发展和巩固中得到了体现。审视了媒体在塑造辩论进程和方向方面的作用,以及北领地政府作为脱衣舞冲突最终仲裁者的回应。利用性来推销酒精是一个合理的公共卫生问题,社区为制定更健康的公共政策采取行动是创造支持健康环境的重要策略。
