Much work needs to be done to rectify the damage of colonisation. This involves partnerships between first and second peoples to revive the knowledge and objects that were destroyed to make way for a universalist Western system.
One of these stories occurs in Paraguay, which was the site of an Australian settlement based on the principle of a white man s socialism . In 1893, a number of socialists left Australia disappointed in the politics at home take up land vacated due to the recent War of the Triple Alliance. New Australia failed partly due to a racial divide between the Anglos and local Indigenous Guarani. While most Australian settlers eventually left, a few remained and their descendants are still living in Paraguay.
