The Fight for Australian Culture - part four Notes on Australia's Culture 1) THE DEPTH OF AUSTRALIA'S CIVILISATION It has been said by some that Australia's civilisation and culture has only the experience, depth, and basis of just some 200 years. How wrong they are! While the Australia-specific part of our culture and civilisation is just over 200 years old, the depth of our civilisation goes thousands of years beyond that. Those that settled Australia did not "step off the boat" as some primitive form of Neanderthal Man, with just some sort of Stone Age civilisation; they arrived here bearing within them some thousands of years of European heritage and civilisation. Australian culture was formed using British culture as its basis. Indeed, the formation of modern British culture itself has to a certain extent lent upon a Latin-Greek-French basis. The natural procession of cultural formations explains the mechanics and existence of Australian culture, but in no way negates the remaining fact: Australia processes a distinct and unique national culture of its own. Australia is a part of wider European Civilisation and of the wider European Culture; in 1788 we diverged along a path that was different to those of the nations in Europe, but one that nonetheless carried with it

The Council intends to engage comprehensively with the arts industry, cultural businesses and artists to achieve its objectives. We have an unprecedented opportunity to build an international profile by using major world events held within our shores and overseas during the next three years, Mr McGauran said. The Council identified a number of substantial opportunities for promoting Australian culture internationally including the Sydney Olympics, the Centenary of Federation celebrations in London in 2000 and in Australia in 2001, and the Hannover Expo in 2000, he said.

This requires the identification of priority destinations. The Australia International Cultural Council ('the Council') has identified four priority regions for the promotion of Australian cultural activity. These are: Western Europe - North America - North Asia, and - South East Asia These priorities were determined after taking account of the twin aims of the strategy: to promote a contemporary image of Australia internationally and to support the export of Australian cultural products. The image and export priorities are set out separately below. The Council's priorities were arrived at by identifying the common ground which existed between these priorities.

20. The Gospel And Australian Culture faith, because it seeks to take shape in its specific context and culture. Australianchurches are experimenting with new ways of sharing faith in http://www.pastornet.net.au/jmm/articles/11771.htm

Articles new articles section catalog keyword catalog title catalog ... author catalog John Mark Ministries Priscillas Friends WWW The gospel and Australian culture Not quite established: Ross Langmead In varying ways the Christian churches in Western countries which have been established by the state are losing their privileged status, and Australia is no exception. But the question of the extent to which the Australian church has been disestablished is complicated by the prior question of the extent to which it was ever established. In particular, was the church of the colonial masters, the Church of England, ever the state church? I plan to use the issue of disestablishment as a focus for some broader questions about how much the gospel has had a transformative role in Australian society and how well it has taken root in Australian cultural soil. I want to argue that the gospel has never had a real 'bite' on Australian culture, and in particular, that the Christian church has never quite been established in either the narrower (legal) sense or the broader (cultural) sense. There's a certain truth to the common claim that Australia is one of the most secular societies to be found. But the picture is not as simple as this. While Australians are not generally interested in organised religion, most believe in God and are open to the spiritual dimension of life, even if they are somewhat inarticulate and stop short of commitment to a group. There are opportunities facing the Christian church in Australia currently as the gospel shows fresh signs of engaging culture in terms of Australian theology, new forms of church practice and a presence in wider society.
