White Politics and Black Australians by Scott Bennett

Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Marks on foredges.

No account of the nature of Australian politics or discussion of the future of Australian society can be complete without consideration of the Aboriginal interest. Citizens, regardless of their political preferences, are learning that the Aboriginal demand for a full role in society profoundly impacts public life.

In White Politics and Black Australians, Scott Bennett coolly and dispassionately describes how the aspirations of Aboriginal Australians are expressed through a political system designed, first and foremost, for the white majority. Mabo, Wik, Native Title, Stolen Generation - these are just some of the issues discussed here. (back cover)
