Overview

The essays gathered here evaluate the key policy dimensions of the Australian-American alliance as they are emerging in a post-Cold War international system. The authors review key bilateral issues of concern and broader regional considerations that are shaping the rapidly changing context of the relationship. They provide an excellent overview of Australian-American relations through the 1980s and 1990s and make some predictions about the next few years. The United States' bilateral relations with the other powerful players of the region, China and Japan, are analyzed, as are emerging strategic, economic and cultural factors in the Australian-American relationship to see what will dominate bilateral ties into the next century.
