Funded Activity Summary

Ancient and Medieval Identity-shifts and the Construction of Identities in Post-Yugoslav Space. The most significant benefit would be in the area of multicultural policies, an area in which Australia is already seen as a model for other countries. Specifically, the issues of acculturation, formation, hybridization, and the disappearance or persistence of ethnic identities over time are integral to developing culturally sensitive and socially advantageous policies of multiculturalism and immigration. Australia also has a significant cultural interest in the Balkans, as large numbers of its citizens perceive cultural identity from the region. For that reason, this research has significant potential to arouse wider community interest, and stimulate dialogue between different communities in Australia.
