N2 - The concept of grand strategy was created to establish explicit connections between the foreign and defence policies of a country. However, common sense suggests these areas should operate in tandem even during the most peaceful of times. This is especially so for middle power countries, who may have broad interests but narrow resource bases. This survey reviews Australian foreign policy from January to June 2016, and uses the country’s 2016 Defence White Paper to examine the commonality and contrasts between Australia’s foreign and defence policies over this period.
