"As a region of economic prosperity, Asia has become an increasingly important figure in Australian foreign policy. Focusing on the period since WWII, this book looks at how relationships between these two regions have evolved, the significance of these relationships and what the future holds. Covering issues such as cultural ties and perceptions, immigration, and trade and economic restructuring, this book makes a significant contribution to the understanding of Australia's place in the Asian region."--Publisher description.
