Aborigines in Australia are seldom thought of as living in urban areas. There has been little research on how Aboriginality survives or is reproduced in suburban or urban conditions. Gillian Cowlishaw, one of Australia's best-known anthropologists, has written a brave, honest and compelling account of her fieldwork that will resonate very widely. This honest and compelling book follows the fraught, exciting and painful process of getting to know 'others', in this case Australian Aborigines in the suburbs who are already 'known' through shocking images and worrying statistics. Gillian Cowlishaw has written a book about the intimacy of the encounter, the practical and ethical dilemmas of research and the fun of engagement in the city's outback. |
