This document discusses a presentation given by Hannah Forsyth on how the Australian Security Intelligence Organization (ASIO) viewed universities and student activism in Australia in the 1960s-1970s. ASIO believed that the spread of new ideas in universities could undermine democracy based on a "four stages of guerrilla war" theory. They saw students and disaffected intellectuals as threats who could spread ideologies opposing the status quo. The presentation examines the clash between ASIO's view of controlling knowledge and students' view of using knowledge to promote social change.
