HSTY2677: Australia: Politics and Nation
This unit examines the intersection between political culture and nationalism in Australia with particular attention to the question of when and if Australia became an independent nation. It examines the content and character of British race patriotism in Australia before 1945 and the gradual unravelling of this British myth in the postwar period. Among other issues the unit explores the end of White Australia, the rise of multiculturalism, engagement with Asia, Aboriginal reconciliation and republicanism.
