Ever since the ‘Eureka Stockade’ of 1854 Australia has indulged in 
periodic outbursts of nationalism. Thus, of Australia’s short history as a 
European settler society, three quarters are characterized by a variety of 
nationalist sentiments and practices. But in the 1970s, when Australia 
officially embraced ‘multiculturalism’, the view emerged that Australian culture 
had successfully transcended the paradigms of the past. However, the electoral 
victories of the racist and xenophobic One Nation party in 1996 and 1998 
have severely dented such notions. Time therefore to re-assess the values and 
dangers of nationalist policies and discourses, to examine the boundaries of 
multiculturality, to evaluate anti-nationalist strategies and to look ahead into 
the future of nationalist practices in an post-modern 
age. |
