This groundbreaking book brings the study of whiteness and postcolonial
perspectives to bear on debates about urban change.
- A thought-provoking contribution to debates about urban change, race
and cosmopolitan urbanism
- Brings the study of whiteness to the discipline of geography,
questioning the notion of white ethnicity
- Engages with Indigenous peoples' experiences of whiteness - past and
present, and with theoretical postcolonial perspectives
- Uses Sydney as an example of a 'city of whiteness', considering trends
such as Sydney's 'SoHo Syndrome' and the 'Harlemisation' of the
Aboriginal community
