Keynotes

Keynotes are published by the Department of International Relations in the Research School of Pacific and Asian Studies at the Australian National University. The Department commissions leading scholars to write short, accessible essays on key issues in contemporary world politics. These essays are designed to bring the best scholarship to bear on problems of paramount concern to the global community. They are written for a broad audience, including academics, policy-makers and members of the wider community, and they are published quickly and circulated widely to ensure that they contribute to evolving public and scholarly debate.
