Enriched Relations: Public Diplomacy in Australian-Indian Relations

The volume is a study of Indo-Australian ties from the viewpoint of practice of public diplomacy. It deals with the historical roots of public diplomacy in general and public diplomacy in a post-imperialism world order. Examining public diplomacy in their relations over the decades, it argues that the future of Australian-India relations and positive engagement between them lies in public diplomacy practices that the countries adopt. It emphasises the cultivation of a new racial etiquette in Australia in 1930-60, South Asian immigrants in Australia and sports culture. It focuses on cultural dimensions of the Australian public diplomacy in Asia as well.
