Kompletný popis

What does an Australian look like? Many Australians assume that there is such a thing as an 'ethnic' face, and that it indicates recent arrival or refugee status. This volume contains nine life narratives by Australians who reflect on the experience of being categorised on the basis of their facial appearance. The problem of who is 'us' and who is 'them' is at the heart of some of the most important challenges facing the contemporary world. Assuming that facial appearance and identity are inextricably linked makes this challenge even harder. The introduction by the editor provides the theoretical framework to these narratives. It discusses the relevance to notions of belonging and identity of the term 'mixed race', and concludes that we are all mixed race, whether we look white, black or 'ethnic'.
