INDG19016 Contemporary Indigenous Issues

Course details

In this course students should be able to develop insights into the central issues facing Indigenous people in Australia today: political voice and representation; law and justice; health and housing; education; employment; the Stolen Generations; land rights; and cultural expression. Students should be able to place these issues within the context of history, social structure and race relations. Students examine recent controversies surrounding the history of race relations in Australia, and whether or not this history is relevant when examining the contemporary situation of Indigenous people. Students should be able to evaluate political debates and policies concerning Indigenous people and their relationship with non-Indigenous people.
