Governing Aboriginal self-determination in NSW: 1980-2025

本项目旨在研究自1980年至今，新南威尔士州土著事务治理在自决时代的运作情况。使用人种学方法研究不同时期的政治权力，可以对作为政策的自决的真实的实践形成新的理解。它希望调查治理进程是否改善了新南威尔士州土著人民的生活。今天，随着决策者就土著事务的共同设计和伙伴关系进行谈判，该项目可以创造关于重新调整政府与土著人民之间关系潜力的新知识。这将为今天关于推进土著自决的关键辩论作出重大贡献。

This project aims to examine how Aboriginal affairs governance in NSW has operated in the era of self-determination since 1980 to today. Using an ethnographic approach to study political power through time, it can develop a new understanding of the real practice of self-determination as policy. It expects to investigate whether governance processes have enabled improvements in the lives of Aboriginal people in NSW. Today, as policymakers negotiate co-design and partnership in Aboriginal affairs, this project can create new knowledge on the potential of resetting relationships between government and Aboriginal people. This will provide a significant contribution to crucial debates on advancing Aboriginal self-determination today.
