Abstract

This paper traces the ways language has shaped understandings of war in Australia since 9/11, the Bali bombing, and the Wars on Terror. It traces the ways in which the public discourse produced by government, the media, and various publications about the Wars on Terror have represented and shaped public understanding of Australian involvement in conflict since 9/11.
