Whether in the form of warfare, dispossession, forced migration, or
social prejudice, Australia's sense of nationhood was born from-and
continues to be defined by-experiences of violence. Legacies of
Violence probes this brutal legacy through case studies that range
from the colonial frontier to modern domestic spaces, exploring
themes of empathy, isolation, and Australians' imagined place in
the world. Moving beyond the primacy that is typically accorded
white accounts of violence, contributors place particular emphasis
on the experiences of those perceived to be on the social
periphery, repositioning them at the center of Australia's
relationship to global events and debates.
