POL168: Introduction to Global Politics |
Long regarded as a 'middle' power in the international arena, recent events are forcing a reconceptualisation of Australia's role within a globalised economy. In what ways has Australian foreign policy changed since the early post-war period, and in what ways does it differ? To what extent does alliance politics - and particularly our relationship with the United States - influence a wide range of other foreign policy issues? How meaningful is the distinction between 'domestic' and 'international' concerns, and what is the relationship between them? This unit examines Australia in international politics with reference both to general themes and specific topics.
