Class Structure in Australian History: Documents, Narrative and Argument
Summary
Beginning with a theoretical chapter on class analysis and history, this book explores the development of class relations and the transformation of the ruling class from 1788 to 1975. Taken together the narrative and documents offer a radical reinterpretation of Australian history. The authors argue that the concept of class analysis is essential to an understanding not only of Australian history but of the issues and problems that confront Australian society today, and of the forms of action required for social change.
