Abstract:Teo Hsu-Ming's Love and Vertigo (2000) follows multiple generations of a family through Singapore and Sydney, as they are racialized in these neoliberal contexts. It also repeatedly explores the dynamics of decision-making, presenting its characters with impossible choices and lose-lose scenarios. This article investigates the relation between choice, neoliberalism, and migrancy in Singapore and Sydney, the main settings of Teo's novel. It argues that the idea of choice is mobilized here to illustrate structural limitations to decision-making in the context of neoliberalism's regimes of racialization. By exploring the way choices are circumscribed and then made, the dynamics of neoliberalism and racialization in Sydney and Singapore are examined afresh. In so doing, this article interrogates the degree to which choice is liberating and celebrates the ways in which "decision and domination" (following Jane Elliott) can be resisted.

Chi Vu
Abstract:An unacknowledged whiteness remains at the center of Australian theater, which prevents a richer cultural and linguistic diversity from taking hold. This essay is driven by two questions: Why, despite genuine efforts to improve access, has there been limited progress for Asian Australians in theater? Could theater in Australia be normalizing whiteness in ways that alienate the very people it seeks to help? Vu draws on concepts introduced by Frantz Fanon, Ghassan Hage, and Audre Lorde, along with her own experience as a playwright, to examine how Vietnamese Australian identity is represented and contested on Australian stages, including the obstacles that preclude cultural diversity from achieving the aspirations that many people hold for it in Australia. The essay has three sections. First is a discussion of the history of Australian theater in the context of colonialism and the white gaze. Second is a case study of a playwrights' development program aimed at Asian Australians to address the glaring lack of scripts written by members of this minority. Third, the author analyzes her own play Coloured Aliens and its production in order to explicate how the white gaze operates. The essay ends with a brief analysis of critical reviews that the play received, which show that greater ethnic diversity in Australian theater remains an incomplete project because efforts to diversify concentrate on peripheral "inclusion" while leaving the centrality of whiteness intact.

Abstract:This essay juxtaposes the academic writings of the Chinese Malaysian Australian writer Hsu-Ming Teo with two or her novels. The essay traces how the cultural politics of multiculturalism have changed over the past decades in Australia. Using the framework of Jean-François Lyotard's future anterior, in which post-multiculturalism is imagined as going back to find elements left out of the current historicizing of multiculturalism, Gunew situates Teo's work in a critically astute "uncomfortable cosmopolitanism" pervaded by her interest in the affective charge contained in contemporary popular romance writing that deals with intercultural relationships.
