Description: Australia on the World Stage: History Politics and International Relations offers a fresh examination of Australia's past and present. From the complex interactions of First Nations to modern international relations with significant partners and allies it examines the forces that have influenced the place now called Australia both historically and today. It is a unique history told in two parts. The first half of the book examines the way Australia acted on the world stage both before and after British colonisation. It outlines the evolution of Australia's relationship with the United Kingdom first as colonies then a dominion and finally as an independent nation. It finishes with a First Nations perspective on foreign relations. The second half of the book provides a wide - ranging history of Australia's dealings with major powers the United States and China as well as its relationships with New Zealand Aotearoa the Pacific Islands Indonesia Japan Antarctica and the United Nations. Written by leading and emerging researchers in their fields this book encourages the reader to consider Australia's performance on the world stage over the longue dur e well before the word Australia was ever dreamt up. This interdisciplinary work challenges lazy stereotypes that see Australia's international history as fixed and uncontested. In revisiting Australia's foreign relations this work also asks the reader to consider its future directions.
