摘要
论文以2007年本尼朗选战为起点,分析了澳洲华人新获得的中产阶级地位及其对政治参与意向的影响,包括2007年大选以来出现在澳洲华人社区的参政、议政诉求,华人参与澳洲政治生活的各种形式以及影响他们参与的若干因素。认为在澳华人已经成为澳洲社会政治和经济生活中一个非常具有活力的组成部分。他们的政治参与程度及其影响力正在显著提高,并且已经成为各方关注的一个重要议题。
Based on an analysis of the middle-class status of ethnic Chinese in Australia,this paper is aimed at providing a new perspective for analysing the widely-debated issue of overseas Chinese participation in politics of their host countries. Socio-economic status of Australian Chinese has changed dramatically since the early 1990s,and their community-wide demand for political participation and their actual power of influence are also increasing rapidly. The battle for the seat of Bennelong,an inner north shore Sydney electorate,where ethnic Chinese account for a large fraction of the local population,during the 2007 Federal election was a turning-point in promoting greater participation by ethnic Chinese in political processes in Australia. This paper will analyse the new middle class status of ethnic Chinese living in Australia,and its impact on their political participation and their political aspirations,especially various forms of their participation in political and public life in Australia and the level of their influence since the Bennelong battle.
