Australia's Asian garrisons and regional engagement, 1945-1988.

该项目计划考察澳大利亚的海外军事社区，1945年至1988年期间，有超过10万名澳大利亚服务人员及其家属居住在日本、马来西亚、新加坡和香港。通过对这些社区作为文化接触的主要地点进行详细分析，该项目试图将服务人员、他们的家庭和东道国社会的经验整合到区域关系的历史中。预计该项目将扩大和重新解释澳大利亚与亚洲接触的历史，并通过关注海外驻军在双边和地区关系中的作用，扩展军事基地的国际奖学金。

This project plans to examine Australia's overseas military communities, which saw over 100 000 Australian service personnel and their families reside in Japan, Malaysia, Singapore and Hong Kong between 1945 and 1988. By undertaking a detailed analysis of these communities as major sites of cultural contact, the project seeks to integrate the experiences of service personnel, their families and host societies into the history of regional relationships. It is anticipated that the project will expand and reinterpret the history of Australia's engagement with Asia, and extend the international scholarship on military bases, by focusing on the role of overseas garrisons in bilateral and regional relations.
