The threat of chemical and biological weapons (CBW) is attracting increasing attention worldwide. Australia's engagement with the CBW began during the First World War. Since then, Australia has been influential in promoting CBW control regimes. However, this experience has raised many questions. This project explores Australia's historical and current response to the central issues of CBW. Using archival and contemporary sources, it analyses the interplay between science, politics and diplomacy. Combining history and political science, it assesses the implications of recent developments in CBW for Australia's role in preventing the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.

化学和生物武器（CBW）的威胁正在引起全世界越来越多的关注。 澳大利亚与生化武器的接触始于第一次世界大战期间。 从那时起，澳大利亚在推动生化武器控制制度方面一直具有影响力。 然而，这段经历引发了许多问题。 该项目探讨了澳大利亚历史和当前对生化武器核心问题的回应。 它利用档案和当代资料，分析了科学、政治和外交之间的相互作用。它结合历史和政治学，评估了生化武器的最新发展对澳大利亚在防止大规模杀伤性武器扩散方面的作用的影响。
