Talk:Economic history of Australia

message: The expression needs a lot of work. Some of the time periods could be filled out more. A lot of the issues are common knowledge for many people. Given the amount of information publically available, merging it seems like overkill.

Also is heavily biased towards the eastern states. Just one example: the Victorian goldrush didn't lead to expansion in the colonies which suffered from a mass exodus of labour. 203.173.46.79 20:49, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

message: There is a part about how John Howard solved the economic conditions in the late 1990s that reads like a political advertisement, I feel this could use a source on why this is fact, or changed to more reflect the global economic times in Australia. The statement "It was enjoyed over two decades of economic growth, coupled with low inflation and relatively low unemployment." also seems to be grammatically incorrect.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.171.68.157 (talk) 08:08, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

thread_title:  Expansion needed 

message: I think what would add to this document is something to do with Australia's activities and effects as a consequence of the GFC which started in 2007. If we could change the 1974 - present with 1974 to 2006 it would enable this article to be more relevent.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.41.135.162 (talk) 03:46, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Where the hell are the references in this article? 

message: Can anyone point to a reason why the first fleet should be treated as 'European' settlement of Australia - were there any reasonably significant number of non-British people involved in it?
From other reading, I see 'European' being used to legitimize a British colony established on the continent - which to date has had very little European about it (no more than a few Dutch or French names and very few actual continental Europeans arriving to Australia until the post WWII period). Architecture and customs of Australia up until WWII are very British with no recognizable European influence in law, cultural norms, organization of the society or political views.
In that context it seems misleading to claim that the 'in December 1792, the European population was 4,221, of whom 3,099 were convicts' - when this was really the count of people on the three British fleets arriving to Sydney - presumably a very English affair?
