In the Twentieth Century
This text examines the important role the international economy plays in the Australian economy. Arranged in four chronological periods, the book gives a clear account of the commercial and political influences which underlie economic developments.Ever since 1788, Australia's economic well being has, for good or ill, been affected by the international economy. Australia in the international economy traces that relationship from the late nineteenth century to the present day. The book is arranged in four chronological sections: pre-First World War, the inter-war period, from the Second World War to 1959 and Australia since 1960. The opening chapter in each section discusses the international economy during the period, the second and third chapters look at the impact of the international economy on the Australian economy. Each section gives a clear account of the political and commercial influences which underlie economic developments. Australia in the international economy fills the need for an introductory text in this area for undergraduate students of economics, politics and history. It is also useful for the general reader who wishes to understand the international framework within which the Australian economy operates. The text does not assume any previous knowledge of Australian history or economic history. |
