Funded Activity Summary

White man's country and the critics: a trans-national history. The project will offer new understandings of the history of White Australia through an investigation of the idea of the ?white man's country? as a defensive response to a changing world order. It will investigate the historical emergence of the ?white man? as a new mode of identitication in the context of the trans-national circulation of knowledge especially between Australia and America. It will investigate the ways in which the racial identities of the federal fathers informed the project of nation-building. It will also chart opposition to the project noting the recourse of subordinated groups to international networks and organisations.
