AUSTRALIA'S CHANGING VIEWS ON CHINA
The relationship between Australia and China is now experiencing a difficult time due to the current situation. Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, prominent officials from both nations have struggled to communicate effectively with one another. This is due to the fact that China has been engaged in a campaign of economic coercion designed to "punish" Australia for the actions of the then-Prime Minister Scott Morrison, who demanded an investigation into the source of the coronavirus.
China has been doing this because Australia demanded an investigation into the source of the coronavirus. This campaign signalled the ultimate end to an optimistic period in which Australian politicians and policymakers considered China as crucial to Australia's current and future development. This era was characterised by a positive outlook on China's role in the world economy. Because it occurred at a time when ties were already strained due to forceful moves taken by China in the South China Sea and other areas, it pushed relations into a more tense and terrified tone than they had been before. This campaign was launched at a time when ties between the two countries were already tense due to aggressive acts taken by China in the South China Sea and other regions.
James Curran's latest book "Australia's China Odyssey: From Euphoria to Dread" indicates that Australian dread of China is not new and has co-existed with exhilaration since 1972. Professor of contemporary history at Sydney University Curran discussed the preceding half-century of ties, the Cold War echoes in Australia's present China debate, and what lies ahead for the country's China policy.
