Description

Examines pre-colonial and colonial Aboriginal Australia in areas such as social organisation, Indigenous knowledge and connections to country. The effects of European colonisation from policies of 'protection' through to those of 'assimilation' are explored. Also critically examines the legacy of colonisation and the continuing consequences of this history for contemporary society through the study of film, Indigenous languages, education and the archival record.

Note: The course is distinct from, but complementary to ATSI2002.

Students who have completed ATSI2001 can not enrol in GENX0101
