VILLAGE MARKET IN A METROPOLIS
My book on Paddington Markets (titled Paddington Bazaar, the name its founders gave it) was published in to coincide with Paddington Markets’ 20th anniversary. In Gough Whitlam had just been elected Prime Minister, reforms in education, the arts and the environment were put into action. Bob Hawke became the President of the ACTU (Australian Council of Trade Unions), Australian author Patrick White won a Nobel Prize for Literature, the Sydney Opera House opened, AFTRS (the Australian Film, Television and Radio School) opened, Jackson Pollock’s painting Blue Poles was bought by the National Gallery of Australia for $ million, Sunbury music festival near Melbourne ran for three days, and hippies from all over Australia flocked to the Aquarius Festival at Nimbin in northern NSW, many settled there permanently.
Overseas a ceasefire ended the involvement of United States ground troops in the Vietnam War and in the Middle East the Arab-Israeli conflict erupted in the Yom Kippur War, followed by the Arab Oil Crisis which literally slowed traffic in the western world, especially in the USA. The apparently endless flow of energy and natural resources fuelling economic development suddenly became finite. The world became a smaller more fragile place.
