Subject Description

This subject forms a study of Irish migration to Australia in the 19th and 20th centuries. Students who complete the subject should have a grasp of the changing historiography of, and major theoretical issues in, migration studies and of central themes in migration history; the migrant experience; the Australian response to the migrant presence; and the impact of migration upon Australian society. Students are encouraged to exploit the richly diverse sources available to pursue their own research in this subject.
