AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Indigenous and Other Australians Since 1901 explores how, despite widespread settler belief at Federation that Indigenous people would ‘die out’, they in fact survived, and populations have grown rapidly, with debates on their position in Australian society now a defining political issue. There are important insights throughout the book and some fascinating historical material is presented from Rowse’s comprehensive research. In particular, Rowse develops a powerful devise of distinguishing between (loosely categorised) ‘South’ and ‘North’ Australia, insisting that the very idea of a unified ‘Australia’ remains a ‘Southern continental projection’ by a ‘settler-colonial nation state’.' (Introduction)

    'We seem to be experiencing a shift to a more generalised accept - ance that human-induced climate change is real. In Australia, Liberals, and liberal-progressives, are suddenly standing against the Liberal Party on climate (and refugee) grounds; the required ‘balance’ of denialist voices in mainstream media reporting seems no longer necessary, perhaps impossible to entertain; the level of activism and some common acclimatisation to, if not embracing of ‘sustainable’ agendas is noticeably broadened, if not deepened. Has some threshold been crossed? Is the sense of an ending pushing us towards new possibilities?' (Editorial introduction)
