This article summarizes the major results of three studies into aboriginal alcohol abuse in and around Perth. The first study was based on in‐depth interviews with thirty‐one officers and members of sixteen Perth community organizations. In addition, a review of impressionistic arguments and research documents was also completed. This section also includes a structured interview with the thirty‐one respondents. The second study examined the fringe dwellers' situation through interviews with four community workers and thirty‐five camp inhabitants. The final study reported on interviews with a representative sample of fifty‐three Perth whites to ascertain the nature of the ‘white backlash’. Overall the results support the predominant role of environmental alcohol abuse and the need for a long term, organic approach
