  • Rethinking the Australian Dilemma: Economics and Foreign Policy, 1942-1957
    RETHINKING THE AUSTRALIAN DILEMMA: ECONOMICS AND FOREIGN POLICY, 1942-1957 BILL APTER A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Social Sciences Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences FEBRUARY 2019 1 PRELIMINARY PAPERS a. Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname/Family Name : Apter Given Name/s : John William Badgery (Bill) Abbreviation for degree as give in the University calendar : PhD Faculty : FASS School : Social Sciences Rethinking the Australian Dilemma: Economics and Foreign Policy, Thesis Title : 1942-1957 Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) This thesis explains how and why, between 1942 and 1957, Australian governments shifted from their historical relationship with Britain to the beginning of a primary reliance on the United States. It shows that, while the Curtin and Chifley ALP governments sought to maintain and strengthen Australia’s links with Britain, the Menzies administration took the decisive steps towards this realignment. The dominant feature of the Australian governments’ foreign policy was a search for security. First Japan and then the Cold War in Asia had made the region more dangerous, at the same time as Australia’s traditional protector, Britain, proved less willing and able to meet these threats. However, while military strengths and cultural links were significant, domestic economic reconstruction was at the core of Australia’s search for security. The Menzies government saw development as not just as an economic goal but critical for Australia’s long-term security. This policy served to push Australia towards the dominant United States and its ally, Japan, and away from the weaker Britain. There is broad acceptance that the end of British Australia only occurred in the 1960s and that the initiative for change came from Britain rather than Australia.
