AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'For many years, when teaching both international and domestic students about Australian history, politics and culture, I began by showing the class a copy of Richard Broome’s book Aboriginal Australians: A History since 1788 (first published 1982, latest edn 2010), only changing the book as new editions were published. I always told students that this was the most reliable, informative and up-to-date text on this subject, and his work was essential reading if they wished to really understand Australian history and politics. My positive impression has been further bolstered by the publication of Conflict, Adaptation, Transformation. I believe that this collection honouring Richard Broome’s path-breaking work in Aboriginal history is important and timely. I highly recommend this book.'  (Introduction)

    'We present our third issue of Australian Historical Studies for 2019. Here we bring together a cluster of articles exploring Aboriginal history, together with exciting new work on the Rum Rebellion and, following an emerging tradition in the journal, an important contemporary exploration of the history profession. The first article, by Shino Konishi, reflects on the ramifications of Patrick Wolfe's exposition of settler colonialism on Indigenous studies. Konishi explains how recent scholarship has moved past the logic of elimination to find more nuanced, subtle and productive ways to explore Indigenous resistance. She reflects on how this shift has altered her practice as an Indigenous woman and a historian of Aboriginal–settler encounter.' (Editorial introduction)
