This article discusses Islamophobia and its relationship with antisemitism in the context of the radical European right’s recent shift towards pro-Israel positions and away from its traditional antisemitism.

Federated Australia was seen for a long time as a significant social 'laboratory'. The Commonwealth itself was seen as an 'experiment'. This widespread metaphor relied on a particular pattern of perception: the country was 'new' (it was not), and the country was allegedly isolated (it was not, at least not completely).
