About this Unit
Using contemporary and historical sociological accounts of migration and ethnicity, this unit analyses the social, cultural and economic impact of international migration, with specific reference to Australia. It further introduces students to major sociological issues, both theoretical and empirical, relating to the construction of migrant groups within settler societies through interviews and qualitative analysis. Key concerns of the unit include the position of indigenous peoples, race and racism, ethnic identity, and ethnic conflict and cooperation in society.
