Migration, Cultural Diversity and Television: Reflecting Modern Australia

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project seeks to document the evolving history of popular television and its contribution to national discussions about migration, cultural diversity and citizenship. The project will endeavour to examine selected television programs that depict the contemporary nation and their representations of cultural diversity across six decades. The project intends to take a cross-disciplinary approach that will combine the critical examination of production processes and program content with the personal perspectives of inter-generational migrant communities, youth and key industry figures. In association with Museum Victoria and the Australian Centre for the Moving Image, outcomes are expected to include scholarly publications, exhibitions and public programs.
