Abstract

The Australia in World Affairs series commenced in 1950 and provides a continuous, researched scholarly account of Australia's foreign policy. The first volume, Australia in World Affairs 1950-1955, uses the war in Korea as its starting point. Prior to the second world war, Australian security had rested upon geographical isolation, a favourable situation in Asia and the undeniable strength of Great Britain. The war deeply disturbed accepted ways of thinking about Australian security and, at least for a time, put an end to complacency. After the war, there was an increase in American influence across all levels of Australian society. This change transformed Australia's international situation, bringing a regard for American leadership in world affairs and a new emphasis on Asia and the Pacific, alongside the traditional relationship with the United Kingdom.

Abstract

The Australia in World Affairs series commenced in 1950 and provides a continuous, researched scholarly account of Australia's foreign policy. The second volume, Australia in World Affairs 1956-1960, begins with the crisis caused by the nationalisation of the Suez Canal Company, the subsequent attack upon Egypt and the Hungarian revolt, and concludes with the civil war in Laos and the nagging friction between the Republic of Indonesia and the Netherlands over New Guinea. During this time, Australia's search for security continued and the three-pronged approach developed in the immediate post-war period was carried further: close association with a Britain becoming more deeply involved in Europe through NATO, and attracted by possible membership of the European Economic Community; collaboration with the United States as the dominant power in the Pacific and the Atlantic; and the development of mutual sympathy and understanding with important areas of the non-Communist Asian world.

Abstract

The Australia in World Affairs series commenced in 1950 and provides a continuous, researched scholarly account of Australia's foreign policy. The fourth volume, Australia in World Affairs 1966-1970, saw the transformation in Australia's position carried several stages further. Once a comparative bystander, Australia had become an active participant in great events. The increased commitment of Australian forces to the struggle in Vietnam not only produced deep fissures and much acrimonious debate within the Australian society, but also placed Australia in a theatre of political operation with which the great and the lesser powers were vitally concerned. It also brought to the fore hitherto largely unstated questions about the character of the United States alliance, the extent of Australian involvement in the United States defence system (especially through the growing number of American installations on Australian soil) and the degree of independence exercised, or indeed possessed, by Australia.

Abstract

The Australia in World Affairs series commenced in 1950 and provides a continuous, researched scholarly account of Australia's foreign policy. The third volume, Australia in World Affairs 1961-1965, is crowded with major events, with the tension over Berlin, acrimonious disputes over nuclear testing and the advance to the brink of war with Cuba. Chinese troops crossed the Indian frontiers, and Indian and Pakistani armies faced one another. Indonesia's confrontation of Malaysia challenged the security and stability of yet another area of South-East Asia. The United Nations suffered a grave financial crisis which threatened to bring the organisation to a halt. There were, too, events of measureless consequence: the explosion of the Chinese atomic bomb; the bitter controversy between China and the Soviet Union, which shattered the seemingly monolithic structure of Communism; the increasing US involvement in the defence of South Vietnam; and the continued probing of outer space.
