This project addresses the nationally significant issue of contested Aboriginality in Tasmania. It offers a broader understanding of complex scientific ideas and deeper insights into the 'History Wars' debate that goes to the heart of shaping Australian national identity. It provides a comprehensive historical and legal context to the current national definition of an Aboriginal, of direct relevance to the collection of national census data, the allocation of welfare funding and the Government's current restructuring of ATSIC. It will place Tasmania and Australia within an international context and make accessible new sources of Tasmanian culture and history to scholarly, indigenous and regional communities.

该项目解决了塔斯马尼亚州有争议的原住民问题这一具有全国意义的问题。它让人们对复杂的科学概念有了更广泛的理解，对塑造澳大利亚国家认同感的核心问题--“历史战争”的争论有了更深刻的洞察。它为目前国家对土著人的定义提供了全面的历史和法律背景，与收集全国人口普查数据、分配福利资金和政府目前对ATSIC的重组直接相关。它将把塔斯马尼亚和澳大利亚置于国际背景下，并使学者、土著和地区社区能够获得塔斯马尼亚文化和历史的新来源。
