A Review of Political Coverage and Multiculturalism in the Journal from 1960 to 1999

Abstract

This overview of 40 years of political coverage and multiculturalism provides a brief summary of the content and themes of approximately 60 articles. There is a genuine sense of improvement and a widening of views in most instances, particularly with regard to preschool education for Aboriginal children. There is also a sense of some opportunities lost and an implicit realisation that quality children's services are achieved by vigilance and effort and held tenuously.
