| Abstract: | In light of the foregoing I intend to examine the emergence of the 'New Tasmania' as an open and accessible island imaginary of global international desire, which some suggest is at risk of reduction to an 'everywhere'. The term 'New Tasmania' encapsulates a thrust by State Government to ensure that Tasmania benefits from The constitution of the 'New Tasmania' 89 economic globalization by marketing its natural advantages (as an island) without degrading those same advantages. |
