'This is a Man's Country' : Masculinity and Australian National Identity in Crocodile Dundee, Russell West-Pavlov , single work criticism
This chapter '...interprets the Classic Crocodile Dundee (1986) as an example of the manner in which a version of Australianness was propagated around the world. The contours of the global market rather than domestic versions of Australian identity were from the outset the defining criteria for the selection of the traits from which a henceforth hegemonic portrayal of Australianness were constructed.' (From author's introduction, 14)
(p. 44-66)
