Unit 3 Overview

In this unit, students explore expressions of culture and ethnicity within Australian society in two different contexts – Australian Indigenous cultures, and ethnicity in relation to migrant groups. Students critically examine the historical suppression and increasing public awareness of Australian Indigenous cultures, and investigate ethnicity as a key sociological category, considering how ethnic identities are formed, experienced, and shaped by various forces.

Ethnicity

Students examine the sociological concepts of race and ethnicity, the process of othering, and the theory of cultural hybridity. They investigate Australia’s ethnic diversity, multiculturalism, factors influencing belonging and inclusion, and the ethical implications of research into ethnic groups, including a case study of a specific ethnic group.
