Description

This course in the history of defence and foreign policy in Australia examines not only how defence and foreign policy is formed and carried out by political leaders, governments and the official departments, but also the responses to those policies by the Australian people. The course deals with central defence and foreign policy issues in the 20th Century and early 21st century including the breaking of ties with Britain, the US alliance and connections with Asia. Such issues are examined against changes in the economy, political change, industrial development and trading relationships.
