HIST109: The Making of Australia
The Making of Australia considers how Australian experience has been shaped by both material forces and projections of imagined identity and values onto the land, its indigenous people and the evolving development of a white settler colony and nation. The expansion of European settlement, the developing regimes of industry and work and Australia's relationship with the region and the world were accompanied by narratives of progress, race, empire and identity which shaped the young Commonwealth and generated conflicts and ambiguities which remain contested.
