Imagined Destinies: Aboriginal Australians and the Doomed Race Theory, 1880-1939
Russell McGregor
Australians once believed that the Aboriginals were doomed to extinction. This study explores the origins and the gradual demise of the "doomed race" theory, seeking to show that white perceptions of Australia's indigenous people were shaped by Enlightenment, Darwinian and other European concepts.
