Against Paranoid Nationalism
Searching for Hope in a Shrinking Society
Ghassan Hage
Socio-political thesis explores the effects of politically induced neo-liberal anxiety on White Australian society. 'White paranoia' is placed in the context of such contemporary events as the Tampa situation, border protection, mandatory detention of asylum seekers, delayed reconciliation with the Aborigines, and Pauline Hanson's One Nation Party. Promotes the notion of a 'caring society' that generates citizens who support and nurture each other. Author teaches Anthropology at the University of Sydney and has also written 'Arab-Australians Today: Citizenship and Belonging' and 'White Nation: Fantasies of White Supremacy in a Multicultural Society'.
