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.
