public discourse on sacredness: the transfer of Ayers Rock to Aboriginal ownership

Abstract

In October 1985, the Australian Labor Government transferred one of the country's leading tourist locations, Ayers Rock and the Olgas (Uluru and Katatjuta), to Pitjantjatjara‐Yankuntjatjara ownership. The event triggered a media debate presenting and representing discourses that organized existing knowledge and created new realities around claims to sacredness, equality, restitution, human rights, and the contributions of anthropology.
