Resumen

This thesis examines how Aboriginality, ‘Asianness’ and whiteness have been imagined from Federation in 1901 to the present. It recovers a rich but hitherto largely neglected history of twentieth century cross-cultural partnerships and alliances between Indigenous and Asian-Australians. Commercial and personal intercourse between these communities has existed in various forms on this continent since the pre-invasion era. These cross-cultural exchanges have often been based on close and long-term shared interests that have stemmed from a common sense of marginalisation from dominant Anglo-Au

Resumen

This thesis reviews the post-war Australia-Asia relationship, while investigating how and why Australia has come to try to identify itself as an Asian country. In this context, it examines how the media represent Australia's role in the Asia-Pacific region and the process of the 'Asianisation' of Australia, particularly focusing on the role of newspaper coverage. The Australia-Asia relationship has been problematic because of a particular history - in particular Australia's strong attachment to Europe. In the midst of a movement of self-definition, Australia seems to have been caught up wi

Resumen

This thesis considers the ways in which Australia has been publicly represented in ten Asian societies in the twentieth century. It shows how these representations are at odds with Australian opinion leaders assertions about being a multicultural society, with their claims about engagement with Asia, and with their understanding of what is typically Australian. It reviews the emergence and development of Asian regionalism in the twentieth century, and considers how Occidentalist strategies have come to be used to exclude and marginalise Australia.

Resumen

This thesis examines the comparatively recent concept of transnationalism by undertaking an empirical study in a context that has so far not been systematically studied in this way. The transnationalism concept was pioneered in the early 19905 by scholars in the United States. The argument is that migrants and their kin construct transnational spaces which permeate various spheres of their daily life. Studies that fail to take these transnational spaces into consideration, risk overlooking important aspects of the migrant adaptation process and the lives of migrants and their kin. This study

Resumen

This thesis is an examination of the discourse on Asia in Australia from 1983 to 1996. It starts from a position that Asia is a linguistic convention, an interpretation, and as such exists as an interpretive space in which certain representations of Asia are negotiated and contested. I argue that the reality of Asia during the period under review existed due to a complex network of language, terms, ideas and interests. It is the contention of this thesis that an examination of Asia as a linguistic convention allows us to witness the fluidity, heterogeneity and fragility of an imagined Asia.

Resumen

In 2006, Prime Minister John Howard’s call for the root and renewal of Australian history initiated an ideologically driven process of developing an Australian national history curriculum which was completed by the Labor Government in 2012. Rather than being focussed on pedagogy, the process was characterised by the use of the curriculum as an ideological tool. This thesis provides accounts of the some of the key events during this period and engages with the conceptual debates that underlie the history curriculum being invested with such potent cultural authority.

Resumen

<p> This thesis examines Japanese writer Saotome Katsumoto and his efforts to create a pacifist message in his 1991 film <i>Senso to Seishun</i> (War and Youth). The story presents multigenerational viewpoints on the Pacific War, and is significant for being the first film to depict the Great Tokyo Air Raid of March 9–10, 1945. I discuss how Saotome's use of fiction, metaphor, and autobiographical techniques assist the film in creating a pacifist narrative. The film's pacifist message continues to hold relevance today, as nationalist and conservative groups push strongly for revisions to

Resumen

This dissertation is a history of the idea of travel in South Asia as it found expression in Urdu travel writing of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Though travel has always been integral to social life in South Asia, it was only during this period that it became an end in itself. The imagined virtues of travel hinged on two emergent beliefs: that travel was a requisite for inner growth, and that travel experience was transferable. Consequently, Urdu travel writers endorsed travel not to reach a particular destination but to engender personal development, social advancement and communal

These findings support the hypothesis that ethnicity plays a significant role in developing metabolic syndrome in populations.

Resumen

The purpose of this exploratory study is to examine the influence of acculturation on sexual knowledge, sexual attitudes and sexual help-seeking behaviour of South Asian women in Australia. A cross-sectional convenient sample of 194 women from India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Pakistan completed self-administered online or pen-paper survey. Socio-demographic variables, sexual knowledge, sexual attitudes (BSAS), help-seeking behaviour, breast and cervical cancer screening behaviour were measured. Acculturation (SMAS) was assessed using two domains: dominant society immersion (DSI) and ethnic so

Resumen

Some minorities identify as bicultural seeing both their ethnic and national cultural identities as important to their self-concept. Importantly, recent research and theory is suggesting that a bicultural identity is not always captured by these existing identity categories. Alternatively, some minorities identify with an additional hyphenated identity (e.g., Chinese-Australian). This identity, however, may not always be acknowledged by majority individuals. This thesis explores ways in which such misrecognitions can be addressed within Australian society by i) exploring the relevance of hyph

Resumen

Citizenship is central to understanding the nature of Chinese migrants and their relationships within the social and political environment in Australia. Utilising the concept of citizenship can be a new way to interpret the human experience of the Chinese survival in Australia and to show that a historical balance can be found between the Australian social environment on the one side and the Chinese experience in Australia on the other. How the Chinese community reacted to the changing issues in citizenship and attitudes towards Asian immigration become the focus of the thesis. This research i

Resumen

Despite a wide recognition that external relationships are a significant force in shaping the pattern of Australian economic and political history, available theories for analysing the interplay of external and internal processes -- political sociology, dependency and world systems theory -- do not provide a reliable basis for coming to tenns with this aspect of Australia's historical experience in a contemporary setting. The world-historical perspective, as developed in an Australian context by McMichael, does addresses this problem usefully, but it is of limited contemporary utility since it

Resumen

This study is in response to the persistent ambivalence characterising the Australian narrative on engagement with China. This ambivalence, between fear and friendship, can be framed as a tension between expected China opportunity and anticipated loss. Ambivalence is evident at the level of public policy development and implementation (the behavioural); at the level of popular policy endorsement (the attitudinal); and at the institutional level. This narrative of ambivalence includes the hopeful expectations of the Gillard Government’s 2012 White Paper, that ‘in this Asian century we [Australi

Resumen

My rationale for tackling this particular issue for my thesis work stems from the immense fascination in the rhetoric, appearance and rationale of extremist right-wing and ultra-nationalist pohtical organizations I have personally experienced. I desired to determine whether an Australian national racist organization, namely Australian National Action (NA), could in the future be a force to be reckoned with, or whether they will forever remain as an insignificant and languishing fringe group. To explore this possibiUty, I had hoped to delve into the dynamics of this organization via the u
