This article explores the issue of inadequate political and social representation of Indigenous people in Australia and how it has contributed to their marginalization in society. The author analyzes the historical context of discriminatory policies and administrative practices that have excluded Indigenous people from citizenship rights, entitlements, and social welfare measures. The article concludes that significant efforts must be made on the part of the Australian administration to make the Indigenous people believe that they form an intrinsic part of Australian social and political life.
