India and Australia are linked historically through
British colonialism and today grapple with both similar
and starkly different challenges flowing from changes in
the global environment. This edited book presents
analyses and empirical studies of the present wave of neo-
liberal globalization, ranging across philosophical,
political and cultural themes. It brings together
Australian and Indian experts in the fields of political
science, international relations, philosophy, cultural
theory and political economy. The timeliness of the book
and its unifying theme derive from comparisons between
Indian and Australian perspectives, and analyses by
Australian writers on developments in India. Indian-
Australian relations are explored in several chapters.
The book will appeal to students and academics across the
disciplines of political science, international
relations, philosophy, sociology, cultural studies,
history and business studies as also to the interested
general reader.
