Description

A critique of two generations of post-war literature on Australian foreign policy from a political economy perspective. This work demonstrates that foreign-policy-makers in the Cold War period were as concerned with global economic interests as with protecting political and security interests.

Table of Contents

  • The search for economic security through international collaboration
  • protecting the Sterling area
  • the debate over Australian foreign and defence policy - liberal internationalism versus anti-communism, 1945-1949
  • the Menzies government, Australia's national security and the Cold War, 1950-1957
  • the retreat from the Sterling area, 1950-1956.
