Reviewing Britain's Presence East of Suez

Reviewing Britain's Presence East of Suez Synopsis

Maike Hausen examines the foreign and security policies of the former British white settler colonies of Australia, Canada and New Zealand at the end of the British Empire. Through the British decision to withdraw their military 'East of Suez' from Southeast Asia, all three countries reviewed their relationship to Great Britain, the premises of their own security and foreign policy and possible consequences in the larger global framework of Cold War, decolonisation and Commonwealth.
