It saw the far-sighted establishment of an embassy in Beijing in the 1970s by Gough Whitlam, headed by Stephen FitzGerald. Here, FitzGerald's story as diplomat, China scholar, adviser to Gough Whitlam, first ambassador to China under prime ministers Whitlam and Malcolm Fraser, is interwoven with the wider one of this dramatic moment in Australia's history. Comrade Ambassador also highlights the challenge Australia faces in managing itself into an Asian future. 606 $aAmbassadors$zAustralia$vBiography 607 $aAustralia$xForeign relations$zAsia 607 $aAsia$xForeign relations$zAustralia 607 $aAustralia$xForeign relations$zChina 607 $aChina$xForeign relations$zAustralia 607 $aAustralia$xPolitics and government$y1945- 615 0$aAmbassadors 676 $a327.9405 700 $aFitzGerald$b Stephen$f1938-$0647387 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910970673803321 996 $aComrade ambassador$94322815 997 $aUNINA
