Abstract:

On 25 July 1969, President Richard Nixon would announce a new direction in American foreign policy towards Asia that would have far reaching implications for its ANZUS partner in Australia. This study aims to map out the affects the Nixon Doctrine would have on Australian policy reforms in an attempt to critically examine the forces within international politics that saw Australia comprehensively engage with its Asia neighbours. This Asian region, which had previously been looked at with fear, was gradually viewed in the light of Nixon’s new policies as the only path to Australia’s long-standi

Abstract:

This thesis looks at the foreign and defence policies of the Australian Commonwealth from 1901 to 2020, with closest attention being paid to the period between 1942 and 1996. It argues that the thinking of Australian policymakers has been undergirded by a ‘strategic imagination’, a concept which provided a way of imagining Australia’s place in the world and situated Australian national identity in regional and international geo-politics. Since federation, the strategic imagination has itself undergone changes that were largely in reaction to external events. The history of Australian foreign a

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis is to test the ‘rational public’ theory first espoused by Page and Shapiro (1988) for the Australian case. I aim to ascertain whether the Australian public, at the aggregate level, has the capacity to form ‘rational’ opinions on foreign policy issues. I do this by testing three major hypotheses using collective opinion data from the Australian Election Study (AES) 1987 – 2010: 1) opinion will be durable, or stable over time, 2) opinion will be coherent, and 3) opinion will respond reasonably, as predicted, to such triggers as changing international situations, elite

The aim of this sub-thesis is to examine the role of the Snowy Mountains Engineering Corporation (SMEC) as an instrumentality for the practical implementation of Australia's foreign policy, particularly in relation to developing countries, and more specifically in the AsiaPacific Region. Towards this end a comparison and contrast will be made of two SMEC overseas projects. As well as

Abstract:

This thesis is about the importance of nuclear weapons to Australian defence and strategic policy in Southeast Asia between 1953 and 1973. It argues that Australia's approach to nuclear issues during this period, and its attitude towards the development and acquisition of nuclear weapons in particular, was aimed exclusively at achieving narrowly defined political objectives. Australia was thus never interested in possessing nuclear weapons, and any moves seemingly taken along these lines were calculated to obtain political concessions - not as part of a 'bid' for their acquirement.

In September 2001 several states launched a series of counter-terrorism policies under the banner of the 'War on Terror' that were unprecedented in their scope, intensity and cost.

This thesis is concerned with examining how this 'War on Terror' was possible: how it was conceivable for policy-makers and how it was 'sold' to domestic audiences.

Evatt’s subscription to the White Australia Policy undermined the realization of human rights by strengthening domestic sovereignty against international intervention. Human rights became the veh

Herbert Vere Evatt, Minister for External Affairs in the postwar period (1941 – 1949), has been labelled by his contemporaries, biographers and historians as an internationalist. He is most often associated with playing a pivotal role in the formation of the UN, with advocating an independent Australian foreign policy and with increasing Australia’s involvement in the Asia-Pacific region. Evatt’s commitment to an internationalist framework was however, mitigated by his adhesion to a set of political and legal ideologies that effectively undermined the vision he promulgated for the postwar worl

How does the Australian government choose between these objectives?

Abstract:

This thesis examines Australian foreign policy with a focus on relations with Africa. I contrast the foreign policy position of the Whitlam Labor Party government with the international policies of the Fraser Liberal and Country Parties government. The structure of analysis demonstrates the links between general and specific elements of foreign policy. I discuss Australia's relations with the United States, approach on the Indian Ocean region, voting pattern at the United Nations, and role in the Commonwealth. I also examine Australia's policies in relation to the demands of developing

碩士<br>國立中興大學<br>國際政治研究所<br>107<br>Through foreign policy analysis, this article attempts to clarify the context and development of Australia''s foreign policy towards South Pacific island countries since the end of the Cold War. The environment of the South Pacific is special, and the island countries are rich in natural resources and special geographical locations. It is of special importance to Australia, which is also in the South Pacific. Although the international situation faced by the seven Australian prime ministers since 1991 has not been the same, "regional stability" and "foreign tr

Abstract:

This thesis examines Australia's engagement with the Asia-Pacific. It seeks to locate Australian foreign policy within a larger Westerri discourse of international relations (IR) and geopolitics which has provided the dominant understandings, meanings and boundaries of international political life in the modern period. In the chapters to follow, I show how this larger discourse has been articulated in the history of Australian foreign policy through the dominant elite perspectives of market liberalism and power politics realism. Rather than treating these perspectives as discrete, mutual

Abstract:

J.A. Lyons, Prime Minister of Australia, 1932-39, presided over twin policies of conciliation and rearmament in a search for peace. The thesis discusses his individual world-view, one chiefly constructed on principles of consensus, and analyses the foreign and defence policies of his government, thereby re-evaluating suggestions that Lyons was chiefly interested in only domestic policy.<br>The foreign policy of the Lyons years was primarily directed at the Asian-Pacific region, especially at Japan. It consisted of an Australian variety of ‘cunctation’, superseded by the variety of ‘appeasement
