SUMMARY:Defending Australia and its Interests: Continuity and Change?
DESCRIPTION:Can Australia defend itself?  \n \nWhat national interests must we protect? As a sovereign nation\, are we becoming more or less secure? What can we learn from our experience to now? How can we better think about the future? \nJoin an esteemed group of critical thinkers for a one-day Seminar to consider these questions of national importance.\nThe Seminar will begin with four noted speakers presenting papers that examine four eras in our national history. \nEach speaker will address five essential questions:\n• What were Australia’s Interests? (real or perceived)\n• What threatened those interests?\n• What strategy did the Australian Government adopt to protect its interests?\n• Was the strategy successful?\n• What lessons can be identified? \nThe eras that each speaker will consider are:\n• Dr Tom Rogers – pre-Federation to post-First World War.\n• Professor David Horner – the Inter-War period to the Cold War.\n• Professor Peter Edwards – the Cold War.\n• Professor Peter Leahy – the post-Cold War era. \nThe four speakers will then be followed by a facilitated panel discussion that seeks to identify the factors that are relevant to our contemporary circumstances. \nJoining the four speakers will be three prominent strategists: Honorary Professor Brendan Sargeant from the Australian National University and Captain Sean Andrews from the Sea Power Centre. \nDownload the seminar program here.\nTicket pricing ($25 per person) includes tea and coffee and gourmet sandwich lunch. Click here to book your ticket. \nThe Seminar is presented by Military History and Heritage Victoria Inc. (MHHV) in partnership with the Naval Commemoration Committee of Victoria (NCCV) and the Royal United Services Institute of Victoria (RUSIV). \n
