ABST100: Introduction to Australian Indigenous Studies |
In this unit we consider past and current ideas about how Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples understand the social category of Indigenous, particularly in Australia.
We will also begin to explore various constructions of Indigenous identity and how these constructions are culturally represented.
Finally, we examine how the ides of "Indigenous" has become part of government policy and how this has, in turn, affected Indigenous lives in this country.
