The history of Asian Australian Cinema: Diaspora, Policy and Ethics

该项目是对亚裔澳大利亚电影发展的第一次研究。它评估了电影的历史，从早期的殖民到多元文化的表现，电影和移民政策的发展，以及亚裔澳大利亚电影制作人的创造性崛起。它重新构建了当前关于混合身份政治的理论，将新的重点放在身份伦理上，并以其创新的散居电影研究方法扩展了国际电影学术研究。它通过解释不断发展的社会想象、不断变化的政策环境和澳大利亚与亚洲之间的文化交流之间的惰性，提供了对澳大利亚电影过去和现在的新见解。

This project provides the first study on the development of Asian Australian cinema. It evaluates the history of cinema from early colonial to multicultural representations, film and immigration policy developments, and the creative emergence of Asian Australian filmmakers. It reformulates current theorisations on the politics of hybrid identity with its new focus on the ethics of identity, and extends international film scholarships with its innovative diasporic cinema studies approach. It offers new insight into Australia's cinematic past and present by accounting for the ineraction between an evolving social imaginary, changing policy climates, and the cultural transactions between Australia and Asia.
