Postcolonial Transformation Of The Australian Indigenous Population, John Taylor
Postcolonial Transformation Of The Australian Indigenous Population, John Taylor
Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International (APRCi)
The 1967 constitutional referendum paved the way for the application of a single national methodology for the construction of a self-identified Indigenous popu- lation via census, survey, and administrative data collection and these sources have provided for statistically meaningful official estimates of Indigenous popu- lation growth and spatial redistribution as well as for some understanding of the dynamics underpinning change. The primary purpose of this paper is to outline the course of this change and to reflect on matters arising that are of concern and interest to public debate on population growth and its implications.
