Australia has drawn closer to many of its Asia-Pacific neighbours in recent years, but continues to look towards Europe and North America for its ultimate security guarantee.
In Girt by Sea, international-relations experts Bec Strating and Joanne Wallis instead turn their gazes to Australia's near region, focusing on the six maritime domains central to its national interests: the north seas (the Timor, Arafura and Coral Seas and the Torres Strait), the Western Pacific, the South China Sea, the South Pacific, the Indian Ocean and the Southern Ocean.
In so doing, they reimagine how Australia should understand its strategic challenges and find lasting security.
