Funded Activity Summary

The changing nature of national identity and its relationship to other forms of identity. By providing a cultural understanding of the relationship between nationalism and other forms of identity, this project sets the background for understanding the nature of Australian identity as we embark upon the difficult passage from a post-imperial peripheral jurisdiction to a potentially more open, generous and constructive polity. The project contributes to the recently added National Research Priorities category, 'Safeguarding Australia: Understanding our Region and the World' - not in the sense of identifying 'the threat' to Australia, but rather in the much more important long-term sense of understanding ourselves in a global, historical and comparative context.
