Shimmering Screens
By: Deger, Jennifer
Published by: University of Minnesota Press

A rich ethnographic study, Shimmering Screens examines the productive, and sometimes problematic, conjunctions of technology, culture, and imagination in contemporary Yolngu life. Jennifer Deger offers a new perspective to ongoing debates regarding “media imperialism.” Reconsidering assumptions about the links between representation, power, and “the gaze,” she proposes the possibility of a more mutual relationship between subject, image, and viewer. more...

Struggle Country
By: Davison, Graeme (ed.); Brodie, Marc (ed.)
Published by: Monash University ePress

The decline of Australian country life is not new – either as a phenomenon or as a popular fear. Contemporary interest in this area is often highlighted in hopeful policy frameworks for the revitalisation of town and countryside. The continuing interaction between our dreams of the Australian countryside and the reality of its decline is the key focus of Struggle Country: The Rural Ideal in Twentieth Century Australia. Linking present concerns to history, this collection of essays looks at how the dreams of progress that captured the imagination of country towns and regions, city politicians, and historians themselves, led to specific positive and negative outcomes in these areas, which in turn influenced how these regions were treated. Struggle Country revitalises the field of rural history, bringing a nuanced approach to studies of ‘the bush’ that distinguishes between farmers and country town dwellers and their different experiences and beliefs. It provides both historical and contemporary analyses that place recent problems within the broader context of the development of rural Australia. And it examines the perspectives from which country people have seen themselves and their future, and how this has affected development in country areas. Struggle Country will be of great interest to historians and students of Australian history, as well as to those interested in the relationship between rural dreams and the underlying realities of rural life. more...
