Paperback. Etat : Very Good. 352 pages. Permanent migration has long been vital to the story of Australia. From the a rrival of early settlers to waves of post-war immigration, the symbolic moment o f disembarking onto Australian soil is an image deeply embedded in our nation? s consciousness.Today, there are more than million temporary migrants liv ing in Australia. They work, pay tax and abide by our laws, yet they remain unre cognised as citizens. All the while, this rise in temporary migration is redefin ing Australian society, from wage wars and healthcare benefits, to broader ideas of national identity and cultural diversity.In Not Quite Australian, awa rd-winning journalist Peter Mares draws on case studies, interviews and personal stories to investigate the complex realities of this new era of temporary migra tion. Mares considers such issues as the expansion of the 457 work visa, the uni que experience of New Zealand migrants, the internationalisation of Australia? s education system and our highly politicised asylum-seeker policies to draw con clusions about our nation?s changing landscape.Not Quite Australian is packed with fresh insight and challenging new ideas for understanding Australia? ??s growing culture of temporary migration. …
