German Mixed-Race Diasporas in the Southern Hemisphere: Science, Politics and Identity Transformation

这个档案和口述历史项目促进了对全球南方殖民和后殖民身份形成的认识。它展示了德国对种族的科学研究，特别是在太平洋地区的混合人口中，如何塑造了当地的身份政治，并为民族主义和非殖民化项目提供了信息。它为理解澳大利亚种族关系的本质提供了一个新的背景，特别是我们对本地区种族混合和同化的态度。此外，这项研究将极大地扩展我们对二十世纪德国种族思想的理解，展示德国与全球南方的接触如何影响魏玛、纳粹和战后对人类和种族观念的印象。

This archival and oral history project advances knowledge of colonial and post-colonial identity formation in the global South. It shows how German scientific studies of race, especially among the mixed populations of the Pacific, shaped local identity politics and informed nationalist and decolonising projects. It offers a new context for understanding the nature of Australian race relations, especially our attitudes toward race mixing and assimilation in regard to our region. Moreover, this research will greatly expand our understanding of German racial thought in the twentieth century, showing how German engagement with the global South influenced Weimar, Nazi, and post-war impressions of humanity and ideas about race.
