They are further complicated as each side seeks not only to secure and maintain strategic and diplomatic relations, but also the perennially important trade and energy relations. This book explores and analyses this relationship using a number of approaches, looking at Australia's diplomatic and economic ties with the Arab states, as well as the cultural exchange that occurs with the Muslims and Arabs who live inside Australia, and their contribution towards a growing multicultural society. This important analysis will be of interest to students, researchers and policymakers in a range of fields, such as International Relations, Middle East studies, multiculturalism and trade relations Analysis Australian Conferences Foreign investment Foreign policy International relations Israel Middle East Muslim Australians New Zealand Overseas students Statistics Trade policy Victoria Notes Includes index Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 167-175) and index SUBJECT Arab countries -- Foreign economic relations http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008114212 -- Australia. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79021326 Arab countries -- Foreign relations http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2004010223 -- Australia. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79021326 Arab countries http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85006278 -- Relations http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00007590 -- Australia http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79021326 -- Congresses. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001533 Australia http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79021326 -- Foreign economic relations http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00005782 -- Arab countries. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85006278 Australia -- Foreign relations http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85009588 -- Arab countries. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85006278 Australia http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79021326 -- Relations http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00007590 -- Arab countries http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85006278 -- Congresses. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001533 Australia http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79021326 -- Relations http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00007590 -- Middle East http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85090501 -- Congresses. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001533 Middle East http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85090501 -- Relations http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00007590 -- Australia http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79021326 -- Congresses. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001533 Genre/Form Conference papers and proceedings.
