For Indigenous Australians, the concept of a 'fair go' is meaningless | Lorena Allam | Australia news | The Guardian: Deficit discourse makes Aboriginal people a problem to be solved. It overlooks the larger socio-economic structures at work and is accompanied by the persistent belief that the dominant system knows best, a crucial part of what author Sarah Maddison refers to as the “colonial fantasy”.
“Discourses of deficit occur when discussions and policy aimed at alleviating disadvantage become so mired in narratives of failure and inferiority that those experiencing the disadvantage are seen as the problem, and a reductionist and essentialising vision of what is possible becomes pervasive,” ANU researchers Bill Fogarty, Melissa Lovell, Juliegh Langenberg and Mary-Jane Heron reported last year.
