The article focuses on sexual inequality among social workers. It is not the aim of the paper to highlight in detail the whole range of cultural variables at play within various communities; specific cultural norms are discussed as they relate to the helping process. Obviously, the need for a broad knowledge of the cultural context is implicit to working within an Asian community. Culture is immovably located within the context of language, and while it is not absolutely Australia all Asians are considered Chinese and that no other definition has been practiced. The dramatic influx of Indochinese refugees has engendered a wide variety of reactions. Certain racist, anti-Asian organizations have conducted intensive campaigns designed to arouse a certain latent paranoia, which many Australians seem to feel about the prospect of an Asian takeover. Their reactions may be dismissed as belonging to hysterical fringe minority, but they must, however, be taken into consideration as part of the macro-systemic environment which affects Asian ethnic groups. |
