'Discussion of the necessary and moral force of remembering or lack of remembering as a form of domination and argues that notions of Australia's flawed past compromises a later maturity; critique of the culture of "ennobling guilt"; includes discussion on whether "Australia's settler-society 'amnesia' concerning colonial treatment of the Indigenous is not a standard feature of juvenile humans - and the settler era represents a juvenile phase in Australian history"; "cult of forgetfulness' practised on a national scale".'
