- Description
- History as a research discipline has traditionally focused on nation-building; evidence of how nations such as Australia have achieved modernity. That is, prosperity through industrialisation and democracy in governance. This paper focuses on a commodity that has not been nation-building - like wool, meat and minerals have been – though it has become economically and cultural significant in the past twenty years. And, given the global significance of wine production, distribution and consumption, in exploring evidence from the past relating to ‘wine’ in all of its guises - as agricultural product, manufactured alcohol, object of trade, subject of tourism and marker of cultural identity – my research has been both trans-national (that is, beyond the creation of Australia as a nation using its own borders as the defining framework) and transdisciplinary in that this paper introduces aspects of Hunter wine history which relate to existing research in the disciplines of Business and Tourism.
