Australia's ambivalence towards Asia : politics, neo/post-colonialism, and fact/fiction (rev. ed.) J.V. D'Cruz and William Steele Published by Monash Asia Institute (2003) |
Book description
This book was triggered by Blanche D'Alpuget's
novel Turtle Beach which is set in Malaysia and depicts Asians in an
unflattering way. Australia’s
ambivalence towards Asia analyses the difficulties Australia has in
establishing a meaningful relationship with Asia. It presents contemporary and historical examples from
Australian culture, politics, media and society, contrasting Asian traditions
and the experience of non-Anglo migrants in Australia.
