About This Initiative
Ideas of identities of both individuals and communities being unstable, malleable, transitional / transient, hybrid and multiple have led to a fertile sub-field of cultural studies. The concept of cultural identity is relevant to many disciplines and interdisciplinary studies (including area studies) in the Faculty of Arts, and lends itself to cross-disciplinary and cross-School research.
The cultural identities research group is interested in the dynamics of the global condition of cultural plurality, intersection and change, as those dynamics manifest in national and international governance and identity politics, music, language and media, and as they are negotiated by, and impact on, different socio-cultural groups in their diverse locations.

Alison Tokita
My core area of research has been performed (oral and musical) narrative in Japan. I have also written on Australia-Japan marriages, Japan-Korea relations and popular culture, the influence of Japanese music on Australian composition, Japanese and Korean students in Melbourne. My current ARC-funded project (in a team) is Music and Modernity in Osaka in the Interwar Years, where I focus on the piano as a symbol of cultural modernity among other things. An ARC project (also a team project) pending is Transnational Communities: Australia’s new migrants. In this, one of my topics will be the use of both western classical music and ethnic music in identity maintenance and new identity formation among Asian communities in Australia.

My main research centres on youth and gender identities in contemporary Vietnam and I've published a monograph on Vietnamese community in Australia.
Chanan Reich
My Phd 's title is: 'Ethnic Identity and Political Participation: the Jewish and Greek communities in Melbourne' (Monash 1983).
David Hanan
I have done research on Indonesian Cinema since the mid 1980s and this has included work on how some of the best Indonesian filmmakers deal with ethnic diversity, regional identity and regionalism generally in Indonesia. I am currently completing a book on Innovation, Cultural Difference and Political Resistance in the Indonesian Cinema since 1950 (some chapters of this book have already been published elsewhere). I have done translation work, subtitling more than a dozen Indonesian films, and have issued collections of important Indonesian films on DVD (via Monash Asia Institute's Between Three Worlds Video and DVD) many of these films with subtitling by me and sometimes accompanied by an article. The theoretical inputs into my book on Indonesian cinema include theorists working within visual anthropology, going back as far as Bateson and Mead, but also recent post colonial theory and also the work of Marxist anthropologists, including Joel Kahn, and feminist anthropologists writing on women in Indonesian society. I expect to complete my book on Indonesian cinema in mid 2010.
I have a second project to which I will return later next year. The project is completion of a book on the representation of Asian countries in Australian newsreels, documentary films and current affairs programs, 1930 to the present. The theorists I have used here include Edward Said, Homi Bhabha, and other post colonial theorists, and also a range of media theorists. The book looks at the way in which Australian perceptions of Asia in film and television are influenced by a range of different ideologies but change and develop over time. The book will look at particular moments in Australian history - pre World War II, the 50s, the Vietnam War, Australia in the 80s and 90s etc. I have already published 4 articles or papers of this research.
Elise Foxworth
My research interests are in the fields of Japanese studies and cultural studies. In particular, I am interested in post-colonial and/or minority literature produced in Japan. I recently completed my doctoral dissertation, Identity and Self Representation in the Japanese Literature of Three Korean Writers in Post War Japan Kim Sok Pom, Lee Hoe Sung and Kim Ha Gyong and would like to publish it in book form in the future. I am also engaged in the translation of Japanese literature by Korean writers in Japan.
Finex Ndhlovu
My research interests border around African postcolonial identities, African diaspora identities, language and citizenship, language politics and language policy and planning. I am currently working on a Postdoc reserch project on 'The Intersections of English Language Testing for Citizenship and the Politics of Exclusion in Australia'. I also recently published a book on 'The Politics of Language and Nation Building in Zimbabwe' with Peter Lang International Publishers. (CV was attached)
Fleur Gabriel
Floriana Badalotti
My name is Floriana Badalotti and I am a PhD student in the School of Languages, Cultures & Linguistics. My supervisors are Rita Wilson and Jim Hlavac.
My research considers cultural identities from the point of view of migrants to Australia and in relation to being multilingual. I currently am in Translation Studies, but employ a fair bit of Social Psychology theories and in particular the work of Henri Tajfel on intergroup relations and social identity as my background is in Psychology.

My area of study is the Armenian Diaspora. I am currently writing a thesis on the Armenian community in Iran, though this is temporarily on hold while I undergo this course.
James Gomez
Politics and Identity in Asia
This is a joint research project that examines how groups in different Asian countries make use of existing political and social spaces to negotiate and evaluate their own identity and power frameworks. The project leaders are Gomez, James (Monash University) and Faucher, Carole (Tsukuba University). The two universities have an existing Memorandum of Understanding.
The project is seeking scholars, from various institutions, researching on issues related to politics and identity in Asia to contribute articles, chapters, present papers on panels for conferences and submit grant applications. The research outputs for the project first are towards a referred journal publication (see below) and later expanding the collection into an edited book.

Adjunct Research Fellow, MAI.
- Continuing work on the gods and goddesses of the fisher folk around Mumbai (with Prof. Marika Vicziany). The fisher community around Mumbai are the original inhabitants of the area and worship mother goddesses. The name Mumbai comes from the goddess Mumbadevi, considered to be the patron goddess of the city. Each of the original seven islands of Mumbai had a goddess worshipped by the local fisher folk. With the development of Mumbai as a major metropolis and the financial hub of India, there have been enormous pressures on the fisher community to vacate their highly prized land. This has been a major threat to their cultural identity and religiosity. Professor Vicziany and I have already published papers on two of the Fisher goddesses and their inevitable Sanskritzation. We are now looking at some 22 goddess shrines around Mumbai with a view to produce a substantive volume on our work.
- For my doctorate in Social Anthropology (La Trobe 2001), I worked on the non-Brahmin temple priests of the Shaivite temples in Maharashtra. To this date, I have published 6 academic papers on this topic and the work is continuing. At present, I am working on a community of priests called the Jain Guravs. Strange as it may seem, it appears that these people belonging to a totally different religion (Jainism) were converted to Hinduism and made into a separate caste of temple priests. I am in the midst of writing their cultural history and ethnography.
- Along with Dr. Purushottama Bilimoria, I am currently editing the second edition of a book on the migration of Indians into Australia.
- I am in the midst of translating into English, an important work in the Marathi language, The Lajjagauri, on the worship of the mother goddess in her headless form depicting only her generative and sustaining organs.
- I co-edited (with Ian Mabbett) a book on the Goddesses of India, Nepal and Tibet in Novermber 2008. It has been published by Monash University Press.

I would like to be plugged into the developments of this Research group. I'm now studying (now half way through the Master of Asian Studies)and am planning to do a research paper on language (specifically Fiji English) and identity in Fiji. I hope I can come as an observer.

Marcello Sorce Keller
I am a Swiss musicologist, I live between Switzerland and Malta, and I come to Australia everytime I get a chance.
My association with Monash is as a "honorary research associate" of the the School of Music-Conservatory. It is a relationship entailing some advantages for both me and the School of music. The person who knows me best at Monash is Professor Margaret Kartomi.
When in Australia, I pursue a research project consisting in the study of people's identity through music (and the idea actually is that music can be used as an indicator of social adjustment). A couple of things I published in English about the beginnings of my work in Australia you find in the attachments:
“Transplanting multiculturalism: Swiss musical traditions reconfigured in multicultural Victoria”, in Joel Crotti and Kay Dreyfus (Guest Editors), Victorian Historical Journal, LXXVIII(2007), no. 2, pp. 187-205.
“The Swiss-Germans in Melbourne. Some Considerations on Musical Traditions and Identity”, Schweizer Jahrbuch für Musikwissenschaft, Neue Folge, XXV(2005), pp. 131-154.
One of the attachments is also the cover of an edited book on Mediterranean music identities I put together in collaboration with Philip Bohlman of the University of Chicago (a bilingual book: Italian-English).
Because of my interests, activities, and plans to be back to Australia fairly often, I would be interested to part of the Research Grouping on Cultural Identities at Monash.

I am interested in being part of such a research group. I have recently joined Monash Gippsland in sociology.
I am a human geographer, with research interests (in very broad terms) in understanding how interactions between people and place contribute to notions of community and identity, and hence the concepts and processes of belonging or alienation. More specifically, my research explores three key themes:
- Society, Culture and Identity
My research examines the role culture plays in shaping our lives at different spatial levels, from the global to more everyday and local processes operating within and between individuals, communities and societies. Through the lens of the arts, and more specifically that of sound, music and performance, I explore how our private and public selves are articulated and/or challenged in public spaces and events. - Australian rural and regional cultures
I have a very strong commitment to rural and regional research, and have undertaken a number of regional-based, collaborative projects These projects utilise a number of methodological approaches in order to assess the impact of music and community festivals on the emotional life of rural communities in terms of connectivity, social cohesion, resilience and wellbeing. - Methodological and theoretical approaches
My research explores the ways in which notions of identity and place are given meaning out of the various social relations occurring in particular times and spaces. More specifically, studying these relations raises methodological questions around the role of emotions and affect. This has led to developing appropriate methodology for capturing what is difficult to articulate in words, and hence an interest in theoretical developments in cultural studies and social sciences.
My other research interests include Australian studies more broadly, with particular interests in cultural diversity and race relations, tourism, place-making, and contemporary cultural theory.
Nira Rahman
I am quite interested in the project you mentioned in your email as my research interest include Language-Culture-Pedagogy-Identity and Migrants and their identities in terms of language-social-cultural challenges in the host society. I recently completed my PhD thesis ('Transition and Identity: Linguistic Minority International Students at an Australian University') under the supervision of Prof Joseph Lo Bianco (Melbourne Uni) .I have been working as a Learning Skills Adviser at Learning Skills at Monash since July 2007.
Olga Bursian
I am interested in participating in this grouping, as much of my work focusses on cultural epistemes and ontologies, etc. I am located in Gippsland, so I have limited opportunities to dedicate a whole day to come to Clayton.
However, there is room for flexibility and I would appreciate connecting with like minded colleagues .
Stewart King
I work on cultural identities and literature, and I am already in several reading/research groups. I would be happy to mentor junior colleagues or co-supervise postgrad students. I have written a book, edited two collections on the topic and I have written about fifteen articles/book chapters on multicultural literary identities, crime fiction and cultural identity, Spanish and Catalan literary history and on postcolonialism and literature. I am also engaged in a project on memory, trauma and cultural identity in contemporary Spain.
Terry Moore
My research interests focus on the paradoxical juxtapositioning of increasing real-world interculturality, subjective multiplicity and ambiguous difference alongside increasing discursive assertions of irreducible cultural difference that characterise the global and national condition. I am interested particularly in the dynamics associated with the intersection of global human rights discourse, national governmental attempts to gain control of plurality by categorisation and typification, and minority groups’ struggles for recognition of their particularity. I am interested in the multiple layers of meaning in these dynamics and the ways in which individuals negotiate the intersections in their mundane interactions, and the effect those negotiations have on replicating and/or transforming the bigger discourses. I am interested then, in the emerging dilemmas of global cultural plurality.
I am interested in these dynamics in the first instance as they manifest in the case of indigenous people, but also in innumerable other contexts from for example, female circumcision and polygamy in Africa and France, to Macedonian or Rwandan ethno-national identity and Israeli navigation of the demands of Ultra-Orthodoxy and democracy. I take a poststructuralist approach informed by feminist, queer and postcolonial theory to the analysis of the dynamics at the micro, meso and macro levels, and their interaction.
Understanding the governing imperative in respect of cultural pluralism, the minority imperative of particularity and the individual imperative to subjective multiplicity, my goal is to develop a model of citizenship and nuanced public policy that can permit maximum minority agency within the structural constraints required for sustainable and cohesive pluralist societies. I take the demotic reality as an indicator of the capabilities for multiple consciousness and the kind of structures needed. This implies the development of structures that permit Aborigines (and others) to be simultaneously different from and the same as each other and other Australians.
An illustrative abstract: Hatzolah and the possibility of Aboriginal equivalents
Insofar as they perceive secularisation as loss of attachment to cultural tradition and community, Australian Orthodox Jews face difficulties somewhat similar to those facing Aboriginal Australians, primarily the fear that engagement as participatory citizens equates to loss of cultural particularity. Orthodox Jews have sought to counter the trend to secularisation as well as adapt traditional cultural practices and beliefs so that community members may retain those beliefs and practices as well as engage in modern secular life. Hatzolah is one such adaptation that seeks to reconcile dissonances between cultural practices, the demands of secular life and good health. My interest in Hatzolah is to explore the possibility of Aboriginal equivalents, whereby Aborigines may negotiate the discourse that, for them, pits culture against health, education and economic development. This discourse is hegemonic and it makes the possibility of institutionalised adaptation unlikely. Yet it is evident that in their everyday reality, Aborigines do negotiate the discursive oppositions and the tensions of double consciousness as modern Aborigines, much as do Orthodox Jews. I argue that the discursive oppositions are the product of public policy and political investment in notions of solidary culture, unitary identity and binary difference, and that the emergence of Hatzolah-like adaptations depends on the adoption of more sophisticated understandings of the interculturality, multiplicity and ambiguity that are the lived reality.

Tim Denham
I am an archaeologist in SGES and am interested in questions of identify formation in the Pacific region, with a current ARC pending on identity formation in (West) Papua/Papua Barat. My perspective is historical of course.
Zachary Russell
Currently I am a PhD student, needing to submit within 6 months or so. My work is on acculturation, which examines culture change amongst individuals and groups living in multicultural settings (though focus is typically on minority adoption of host/majority culture). I look at this at the psychological and behavioural level, examining how varying attitudes towards acculturation, especially when taking into account perceived acculturative attitudes of 'the other' (i.e. larger ingroup, outgroup), influence interethnic relations between groups, as well as relations within ethnic groups, and even within the self (i.e. mental health).
I've been looking for something like this at Monash for some time. While I have extensive contacts throughout Western Europe (esp. Holland, Germany, and Finland) and North America, I have been able to gernerate little local dialogue on these themes. I hope that this is the beginning of something significant for Monash in this area; at all cross-cultural psych conferences I have been to, I have been the only Australian (including Monash, of course) to attend. Australia is a context largely missing from this field. This has all been frustrating as per PhD my process, but is also represents an opportunity.
