Research Abstract |
All forms of history are flourishing except academic history in Australia. The History Wars may be insignificant to most history practitioners except for those historians and politicians directly involved. Thriving engagements with the past exist in many forms independent of the History Wars. Powerful economic forces in the modern world work behind the History Wars and diverse historical activities. The last two or three decades witnessed the revival of nationalism in the western world. The revitalization took many forms such as the history and culture wars, educational reforms like the introduction of national curriculum, invigorated commemorations and ceremonies, reenactments of historical events, pilgrimages to historically significant sites, sport events, movies, fiction, animation, and web-sites. I argue that such recent revival of nationalism was basically a reaction to the effects of globalization, especially economic ones.
