“The Homo Europaeus in Australia”
Mandy
Kretzschmar, PhD student
The Australian perception of the European person constitutes the
focus of the research project. How communicated, developed and transformed
Australians their image of the European? The project follows the
Australian debate about the European, his specific characteristics
as well as his position in the history of the Fifth Continent. It
is concerned to identify the participating actors of the debates,
the processes of acceptance and rejection as well as mutual influences
of inside and outside perspective on the European. As a time frame,
the period between the two world wars (1920s/30s) as well as the
period of the Cold War (more precisely 1960s/1970s) have been chosen.
