Funded Activity Summary

The Indigenous Histories of Settler Societies. Until recently, Australia was officially engaged in Aboriginal Reconciliation. Yet the position of Aboriginal Australians in the wider society has not improved significantly. In this context, history and the way history is discussed are very important issues. The Australian community will benefit from an increased awareness of global trends regarding some inclusion of indigenous understandings in representations of national identity. The Australian community will benefit as well from a comparative analysis of the ways in which indigenous histories are produced and received. This project will provide an inclusive analysis of comparable debates and an assessment of the degree of recognition being acquired by indigenous communities elsewhere.
