The Arab community in Australia is one of the oldest and most established of its immigrant ethnic communities. Together, the various works brought together here cover most aspects of Arab–Australian lives that are of importance today: the history of settlement, attitudes about citizenship, Arab women’s activism, Arab antiracism activism, the position of Arab youth between two cultures, nostalgia and homesickness, everyday life in an Arab “ethnic” suburb, and questions of identity.Ghassan Hage is senior lecturer in social anthropology at the University of Sydney and is a leading scholar in the areas of nationalism, whiteness, multiculturalism, and the immigrant experience. He is the author of White Nation and the coauthor of Homeworld.
