Art students and others conducting research are welcome to make an appointment with us to view the works listed in the adjacent table.
It is also recommended for Europeans to use the online search system at KVK (Karlsruher Virtueller Katalog), in which all German and many European scholarly libraries list their available references. Sometimes the works are available for loan.
A list of further references about Australian art, which however are not yet in our reference collection, is also maintained and continually extended.

Cover Text
The Outsiders Within is an engaging account of the ways in which over hundreds of years Indigenous and Southeast Asian people across Australia have traded, inter-married and built hybrid communities. It is also a disturbing exposé of the persistent, sometimes paranoid, efforts of successive white governments to police, marginalise and outlaw these encounters. Peta Stephenson brings to life the three-way relationship between Indigenous, Asian and white Australians by drawing on family narratives and oral histories as well as official documents; and reexamines Australias identity, how it is constructed and what it forgets.
