風起南方：雪梨國民黨的歷史遺產

中原之外，始終存在著另一種歷史書寫的方式——不從中心向外輻射，而向邊緣低迴。座落於雪梨市中心的國民黨建築，便是這樣一部沉默多年的南方史：白澳政策的陰影下，華人從未真正被排除，也從未真正被接納，而是懸置於「中原」與「白澳」兩種想像之間。這段歷史，一半寫著結社、互助、商業網絡的溫情，一半寫著效忠、黨部指揮的紀律，二者交纏於同一批泛黃的紙頁之間，早已無法剝離。離散的歷史，從來沒有真正的主人——居住之地，欲將它收編進多元共榮的敘事；來處之地，欲將它挪用為政權正當性的證詞；而真正活過這段歷史的人，反而在兩種收編之間，早已走得很遠。本次演講將從我的檔案研究，以及這棟建築近日獲頒遺產列級的歷程出發，不只追問究竟保存了怎樣的一段歷史，更思考它為何在今日仍值得被記住。當一座昔日的國民黨總部成為澳洲遺產，它所保存的，不只是某個政治組織的歷史，更是一段關於移民、歸屬，以及澳洲華人如何成為澳洲共同歷史一部分的故事。

主講人：郭美芬博士，麥考瑞大學國際研究學院講師。

演講約一小時，含現場問答。

本場次為 MOCA 澳華歷史論壇的第四場。本論壇是一個公開講座系列，探討華人社群在澳洲的歷史，以及與之相連的世界。歡迎在博物館現場買票，我們的前台同事會幫助您。

An Unlikely Heritage: Rethinking the Kuomintang in Sydney

History is not always written from the centre. Some of its most revealing stories emerge from the margins. The Kuomintang headquarters in the heart of Sydney is one such place. Under the White Australia Policy, Chinese Australians were never fully excluded, nor fully accepted. Between the imagined homeland and White Australia, they built their own associations, businesses and political organisations. The archives reveal two intertwined histories: one of community, mutual aid and civic life; the other of political loyalty, party discipline and transnational networks. Drawing on a decade of archival research and the building's recent heritage listing, this talk explores how these long-forgotten archives reshape our understanding of Chinese Australian history. What does it mean when a Kuomintang headquarters becomes part of Australia's heritage? More than the history of one political organisation, this unlikely heritage invites us to rethink migration, belonging, and the place of Chinese Australians in Australia's shared past.

Dr Mei-fen Kuo is a historian at Macquarie University, where she lectures in Chinese Studies and International Studies. Her research covers Chinese diaspora politics, Taiwan Studies and Cold War Asia-Pacific history. She is the author of Making Chinese Australia and Unlocking the History of the Australasian Kuo Min Tang 1911-2013, and held a National Library of Australia Fellowship in 2023.

The talk runs for about an hour, including a Q&A session with the audience.

This is the fourth event in the MOCA History Forum / 澳華歷史論壇, a series of public talks on the histories of Chinese communities in Australia and the world they connect to.
