Title: Married to the Region - Asian/Australian Marriages 1945-1970
Author: Kathie Blunt
Abstract: The Asia/Australia relationship is primarily considered in terms of economics, trade, regional security and immigration, but rarely in terms of gender dynamics. From colonial times however, gender relations have played a distinct role in the relationship, as one of the most feared, and perhaps one of the most fascinating aspects to capture the Australian national imagination since colonial times has been the question of intermarriage between the people of Asia and Australia.
