What role does the US play in shaping Australian politics?
Australia is one of the US's most staunch supporters: Australia has
sent troops to Iraq, and is an ally in the 'war on terror'.
Australian domestic policy also follows the US economic model, as
state industries and services have been privatised. Erik Paul, a
specialist in international studies, dissects the relationship
between Australia and the US. He explores how Australia has become
a key player in maintaining American dominance in South East Asia,
and looks critically at the contrast between the Australian wealth
and the comparative poverty of surrounding nations. Examining the
influence of neo-conservative imperialism on Australia's economic
and military strategies, he draws some startling conclusions about
future Australian relationships in East Asia, in particular, its
relationship with China. Written with clarity, this is an ideal
introduction to the subject for students of international studies.
