Providing an original analysis of the cables, this book provides the context and explanations necessary for readers to understand how the U.S. Embassy’s objectives in Australia and the wider world have evolved since the 1980's. It shows that Australian policymakers work closely with their American counterparts, aligning Australian foreign policy to suit American preferences. It examines a range of U.S. government priorities, from strategic goals, commercial objectives, public diplomacy, financial sanctions against terrorism, and diplomatic actions related to climate change, looking back at key events in the relationship such as sanctions against Iraq, the 2008 Global Financial crisis, intellectual property protection and the rise of China.World historyWorld politicsCommunicationSecurity, InternationalWorld History, Global and Transnational Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/719000Political Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911080Media and Communicationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/412010International Security Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912120World history.World politics.Communication.Security, International.World History, Global and Transnational History.Political History.Media and Communication.International Security Studies.909Fernandes Clintonauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1160601BOOK9910484513603321What Uncle Sam Wants2853373UNINA
