The Politics of Fear: Lighting the Wik

Pearson Education Australia, 2005. Softcover. For undergraduate and postgraduate courses in political science, Aboriginal and Australian studies. The Politics of Fear: From Wik to Woomera focuses on racism and the politics of fear that has become a feature of politics in western nation states. In the Australian context such fears centre on a range of rights and issues such as native title, reconciliation, and the Government response to the stolen generation, along with social policy on multiculturalism, immigration and asylum seekers. This text brings together a range of disparate policy areas in an analysis of racism and fear in contemporary Australia and addresses the broader issues of racism confronting contemporary Australia.Introduction: A Culture of FearDiscourse on RaceNative Title and the Politics of FearReconciliation and the Politics of RaceMulticulturalism and the Politics of DiscontentImmigration and the Politics of DivisionImages of Australia in AsiaFrom Wik to Woomerapp. v, 188.
