Download PDF Viewer. Author s Oakman, Daniel. Show full item record. With the immediate turmoil of World War II over, communism and decolonisation had ended any possibility that Asia could continue to be ignored by Australia. In the early s, Australia embarked on its most ambitious attempt to engage with Asia: the Colombo Plan.

Above all this is the question of how Australia sought to project itself into the region, and how Asia was introduced into the Australian consciousness. In answering these questions, this book tells the story of how an insular society, deeply scarred by the turbulence of war, chose to face its regional future.
