Introduction to Australia
Question 1: Claiming a Continent
According to Anne Gray, colonists changed their perspective on Australia between 1788
and 1901 because colonization seemed too dangerous. They lacked a clear idea of the reality of
the area, including the climate and topography. Nonetheless, Britain's rule over Australia helped
them establish a crucial naval base. They also create a good naval base to challenge the ongoing
French expansion. Australia also became the new relocation area for British prisoners who were
overwhelming the nation’s facilities amidst the American revolution. Gradually, Australia’s land,
natural riches, and cheap slave labor attracted thousands of settlers. Moreover, the discovery of
gold mines in the mid-1800s also sparked more migration into Australia, further indicating the
rapid change in perception.
Question 2: Making a Nation
In the 1950s and 1960s, immigrants were asked to adopt the "Australian Way of Life."
The approach was unclear and unappealing to migrants who intended to keep their language and
traditions. Nonetheless, the "Australian way of Life" was heavily promoted because the

from acting as another’s surrogate, especially with state affairs. In a nutshell, sovereignty allows
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to manage their resources.
Question 4: Multicultural Australia
Per Abdul Ravi’s insight, pluralists establish a significant challenge by establishing two
arguments to defend multiculturalism. First, they claim that multiculturalism is the ideal means
to create a fair commonwealth in a world filled with societal struggles. The inference links to the
idea that efforts to promote inclusivity nurture oppression. Next, pluralists maintain that humans
have an innate need for social connections that must be fulfilled across various societies. The two
contentions are technically imperfect. They go against the idea of esteem pluralism which states
that life can be perceived through many standpoints, with none of them being indicated more
powerful than the rest. From this stance, the idea of a generally accepted fact seems like a façade
that lacks justification. Groups have unique beliefs and qualities which must all be respected and
legitimized. Overall, pluralism leads to the disproportionality of facts, making it more
challen...
