Brett Heino is a legal scholar and historian at the University of Technology Sydney, Australia. His current research revolves around literary geography, focusing in particular upon literature as a means to understanding the spatial history and relationships of Australian capitalism. He is the author of Regulation Theory and Australian Capitalism: Rethinking Social Justice and Labour Law (2017), as well as articles on literary theory, trading hours legislation, occupational health and safety, and trade union mobilisation.

“Heino’s project is a compelling one. His efforts to demonstrate the power of literary geography to analyse class and power issues work well in relation to his analysis of The Unidentified Industrial Prisoner. His book is a timely reminder of the power inherent in Australian literature, which still deserves recognition among the ‘old world’ reading publics.” (Dave McLaughlin, Environment, Space, Place, Vol. 14 (2), 2022)
