This interpretation places cultural and ideological factors alongside the traditional emphasis on pragmatic economic and security considerations in explaining why two nations whose objectives in the Pacific region were often at odds were able to craft one of the most enduring diplomatic relationships of the twentieth century. It examines not only official policies and attitudes but also emphasizes the shared views on race carried by both American and Australian citizens that helped to ameliorate, and at times complicate, the bond between Washington D.C. and Canberra. This work also places greater emphasis on the post-World War II relationship as being the most crucial time in the shaping of the alliance. \u003cem\u003eThe White Men''s Countries \u003c\/em\u003eserves to help broaden our understanding of how racial ideology played a pow\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments – Old Friends and New Strangers – An Acrimonious Time: 1933–1940 – A Two-front War: 1941–1945 – The Commonality of Race – A Reddened Pacific: 1946–1949 – The Pendulum of War: 1950–1953 – The Aftermath of War – Index.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Lang Publishing Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51359417729367,"sku":"9781433169366","price":60.93,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781433169366.jpg?v=1754124587","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-white-mens-countries-9781433169366","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
