Funded Activity Summary

Nation, Race, Rights and the New World Order, 1945-1966. Given the beleaguered status of international organisations, the postwar universal human rights agenda, and race relations, the history of the ideas of nation, race, and rights is ripe for an analysis that seeks to understand the formative post-Second World War period. This project examines the contribution to international discussions and legislation concerning rights and racism, made by representatives of a nation that continued to adhere to a policy of 'white Australia' after the Second World War. As a result it places the history of race and nationalism in Australia in a comparative and international context.
