Australia’s constitutional referendum, the Israel-Palestine War and British imperialism, MRonline, 21 October 2023

Research output: Contribution to specialist publication › Professional blog or online forum

Abstract

The 2023 referendum may go down in history as the worlds’ first referendum on identity politics, which was entertained by both sides in Australian politics, but rejected by the Australian people. Yes- we must seek a new way forward to address the enduring problem of colonialism and imperialism, and by doing so, we need to discard empty gestures and do something substantive.
