商品の説明
内容説明
This book provides an arresting interpretation of the history of Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific from the earliest settlements to the present. Usually viewed in isolation, these societies are covered here in a single account, in which the authors show how the peoples of the region constructed their own identities and influenced those of their neighbours.
By broadening the focus to the regional level, this volume develops analyses - of economic, social and political history - which transcend
national boundaries. The result is a compelling work which both describes the aspirations of European settlers and reveals how the dispossessed and marginalized indigenous peoples negotiated their own lives as best they could. The authors demonstrate that these stories are not separate but rather strands of a single history.

Good in spite
2005/9/30
形式:ハードカバー
There are not many up-to-date histories which treat Oz together with NZ and the Pacific Islands. The chief author of this one is--as all writers of history are nowadays--a raving, dribbling, ultra-PC lefty who is convinced that "history" is nothing but a white man's construct to keep the rest of the world down, and who confesses at the book's beginning that he accepted the commission to write it more or less as a feat of subversion. However, the Pacific area has little to offer in the way of nation-state narratives, and must be studied in terms of ethnology, anthropology, and social research to bring out its history, and this is the sort of work at which these people excel. At least the authors don't insist on calling New Zealand "Aotearoa" all the time. Recommended for the generous-hearted reader who knows how to peer around the slant into all the data.
