Description

Hugh White considers Australia's place between Beijing and Washington. As the power balance shifts, and China's influence grows, what might this mean for the nation? Throughout Australian history, we have counted first on Britsih and then on American diplomacy in Asia. The rise of China as an economic powerhouse has challenged US dominance in the region and raised questions for Australia that go well beyond diplomacy and defence - questions about the kind of country we are and how we see our place in the world. Will China replace the US as regional leader? If so, we will be dealing with an undemocratic and vastly more powerful nation. Will China wield its power differently from the US? If so, should we continue to support America and so divide Asia betweeen our biggest ally and our biggest trading partner? How to define the national interest in the Asian Century? This visionary essay considers the shape of the world to come and the implications for Australia as it seeks to carve out a place in a new world order.
