Booming mineral and gas development is also helping to drive the nation?s economic success. At the same time, the south?s conservation sector would like to see much of the north preserved as iconic wilderness. Both conservation and resource development interests alike are often at odds with the interests of the north?s traditional owners, many of whom remain trapped in welfare dependency and poverty. Indeed, to the ire of north Australians, the past five decades of north Australian history have indeed been characterized by these national-scale conflicts being played out in regional and local communities. This book explores these conflicts as well as the many emerging opportunities facing the development of the north, suggesting that a strong cultural divide between northern and southern Australia exists; one that needs to be reconciled if the nation as a whole is to benefit from northern development. The author first explores where these historical conflicts could take us without a clear forward agenda. A story-based personal narrative from his long and diverse experience in the north gives life to these themes. Finally, the book then draws on these stories to help shape a cohesive agenda for the north?s future. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Geography,$x2211-4165 606 $aEconomic geography 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aEnvironment 606 $aClimate 606 $aEconomic Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J12000 606 $aPolitical Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911000 606 $aEnvironment, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U00009 606 $aClimate, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/300000 615 0$aEconomic geography. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aEnvironment. 615 0$aClimate. 615 14$aEconomic Geography. 615 24$aPolitical Science. 615 24$aEnvironment, general. 615 24$aClimate, general. 676 $a994 700 $aDale$b Allan$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058798 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298393203321 996 $aBeyond the North-South Culture Wars$92502522 997 $aUNINA
