内容简介

Trading on Alliance Security: Australia in World Affairs 2001--2005, charts the Howard government's response to a particularly demanding external environment, in an era when foreign policy issues had a significant impact on domestic electoral politics. The challenges the government faced included growing instability in the Pacific, managing the rise of China, the proliferation of preferential trade agreements, fashioning a defence policy that equipped Australian forces to respond to an altered security agenda, and engaging with new global regimes. Written by leading scholars, this volume, like its predecessors, will provide the definitive record of the Australian foreign policy during the second Howard government.
