Description
This volume examines Australian Labor Party foreign policy from 1941, when the Curtin government sought to develop a more independent foreign policy for the first time, to the present day. The contributors, who include academics and a number of past practitioners of Labor foreign policy, seek to determine if a 'Labor' foreign policy tradition can be said to exist, what its essential features might be, and how far the ALP, in government and in opposition, remained true to its principles. In their critical investigations of Labor's foreign policy record, the authors offer no single or simple answers. The volume is timely in that it is being published just as the new Coalition government is reassessing the broad thrust of Australia's foreign policy. Contributors: . Steven Bates . John Burton .
