Dialogue and Indigenous Policy in Australia
Dialogue and Indigenous Policy in Australia Darryl Cronin A thesis in fulfilment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Social Policy Research Centre Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences September 2015 ABSTRACT My thesis examines whether dialogue is useful for negotiating Indigenous rights and solving intercultural conflict over Indigenous claims for recognition within Australia. As a social and political practice, dialogue has been put forward as a method for identifying and solving difficult problems and for promoting processes of understanding and accommodation. Dialogue in a genuine form has never been attempted with Indigenous people in Australia. Australian constitutionalism is unable to resolve Indigenous claims for recognition because there is no practice of dialogue in Indigenous policy. A key barrier in that regard is the underlying colonial assumptions about Indigenous people and their cultures which have accumulated in various ways over the course of history. I examine where these assumptions about Indigenous people originate and demonstrate how they have become barriers to dialogue between Indigenous people and governments. I investigate historical and contemporary episodes where Indigenous people have challenged those assumptions through their claims for recognition. Indigenous people have attempted to engage in dialogue with governments over their claims for recognition but these attempts have largely been rejected on the basis of those assumptions. There is potential for dialogue in Australia however genuine dialogue between Indigenous people and the Australian state is impossible under a colonial relationship. A genuine dialogue must first repudiate colonial and contemporary assumptions and attitudes about Indigenous people. It must also deconstruct the existing colonial relationship between Indigenous people and government. -
The Big Picture
The igicture b p The Gurindji people lived in the Victoria River country in the Northern Territory for thousands of years. In 1883, Europeans came and set up Wave Hill cattle station on Gurindji land. The traditional owners had nowhere to live and their hunting grounds were destroyed by the cattle. To survive, they took jobs on cattle stations as house servants and stockmen. Indigenous workers were treated like slaves. They could not leave the cattle stations and often worked without pay. In 1914, Wave Hill cattle station was taken over by the Vestey Pastoral Wave Hill cattle station Company, owned by English millionaire Lord Vestey. The company made is about 600 kilometres huge profits by paying Indigenous workers flour and beef instead of money. south of Darwin in the Indigenous families at Wave Hill lived in iron huts with dirt floors and no Northern Territory. lights, running water or toilets.

In 1788 the colony of New South Wales was established and the founding of Australia as a British colony had begun. The colony was settled on the basis of the doctrine of international law whereby the continent was deemed to be terra nullius—land belonging to no-one. Despite the obvious presence of Indigenous people, in the eyes of the British the land was considered to be practically unoccupied, without settled inhabitants and without settled law. The Colony was claimed for the British Sovereign on 26 January 1788. There is ongoing debate about the legal status of the ‘settlement’ as the land was clearly occupied and; there was no treaty and no (declared) war. -
