Re-discovering the Australian Multicultural Literature Collection
In late 2020, Daniella and Michel interviewed Sneja Gunew, founder of The Australian Multicultural Literature Collection (AMLC), to get an overview of the archive: how it started, what the collection methodology was, and why it was, and continues to be, crucial for critically studying and theorizing Australian multiculturalism, ethnicity and race, and migrant life and writing in neo-colonial Australia
Cosmopolitan Planetarity
As an umbrella term, the planetary has become a type of placeholder for many different ways of rethinking how the human and the non-human interact in relation to space and time (national time, colonial time, deep time). As well, when we engage with marginalized epistemologies associated with, for example, Indigenous and other nonEuropean cultures, what kind of planetarity is constructed then? And what types of affect does planetarity generate (fo…
Migrant Housing
Around 25 years ago I was asked to assess a doctoral thesis that was broadly situated in the field of architecture with a specific focus on gender. One of the chapters used Kristeva’s theory of abj
Feminism and the Politics of Difference
Feminism and the politics of irreducible differences
This chapter examines the tensions between ethnicity, race and women in relation to literature and multiculturalism. It explores why debates around ethnicity are consistently conflated with those of race. The fight to establish Australian literature was intimately bound up with the battle to secure Australia’s cultural independence from its British colonial heritage. Ned Kelly becomes the quint-essential Australian hero and writers from Furphy to…
Trajectories, institutions, and re-locations
This conversation explores the resonances of the Inter-Asia project outside the geographical boundaries of Asia. The participants, who represent diverse national, institutional, and professional experiences, discuss the following topics: how Asia and the Inter-Asia project has affected their intellectual trajectories; navigating academic institutions and formations; the changing meaning of diaspora and migration and their effects on language and …

Introduction
Haunted Nations
Postcolonialism has attracted a large amount of interest in cultural theory, but the adjacent area of multiculturalism has not been scrutinised to quite the same extent. In this innovative new book, Sneja Gunew sets out to interrogate the ways in which the transnational discourse of multiculturalism may be related to the politics of race and indigeneity, grounding her discussion in a variety of national settings and a variety of literary, autobio…

Inflexões subalternas nos cosmopolitismos vernaculares
O conceito sobre o termo relativamentre novo, "cosmopolitismos vernaculares", identifica as responsabilidades e os contextos globais ao mesmo tempo que reconhece que eles estão sempre enraizados e enredados em interesses locais, os quais incluem os grupos minoritários que competem dentro da nação. Este artigo examina o termo "europeu" com o objetivo de desnudar os debates revisionistas sobre o cosmopolitismo, especialmente em relação aos "cosmopo…
Rethinking Whiteness
Stammering ‘country’ pedagogies
The machinery of nostalgia is not simply benign but releases the uncanny, as is found when the process of memory and its legitimations are scrutinised. Memory is referred to as a mediating link between objects and their referents and it is this gap between resemblance and identity that nostalgic desire arises

Women’s Studies on Its Own
We thought the study of women would be a temporary phase; eventually we would all go back to our disciplines.—Gloria Bowles, From the Afterword Since the 1970s, Women's Studies has grown from a volunteerist political project to a full-scale academic enterprise. Women's Studies on Its Own assesses the present and future of the field, demonstrating how institutionalization has extended a vital, ongoing intellectual project for a new generation of s…
