White Man Got No Dreaming. Essays 1938-1973
White man got no dreaming
AThis book looks at 'the Aboriginal problem' from an unusual viewpoint - that of the Aborigines themselves, for whom 'the Aboriginal problem' is the white Australian.

T…

Aborigines and Australian Society
Rationality and Irrationality in Economics
Aborigines in the affluent society
At a symposium held at the University of Western Australia, several speakers addressed themselves to a common theme from different points of view, in order to explore more deeply a question over which there is concern and a division of opinion. For my part, I propose to spend no time on proving the fact that there is a gap between the average real standard of Aboriginal Ufe—and, for that matter, death—and our own, or that the gap is widening. To …

Postwar Fiji
T HOSE seeking to implant new ways of life and new social goals among dependent colonial peoples whose roots are still deep in their own cultural traditions are all too often handicapped by a lack of fundamental data bearing directly upon the problems of ends and means.
