Today we’re celebrating Australia Day with a public holiday and some good barbecue fare, but we’ll be back tomorrow as normal with our usual considered analysis and debates. In the mean time, check out last week’s ASPI suggests by David Lang and Amelia Long, Robert O’Neill’s take on the challenges for the Defence White Paper, Ben Schreer and Sheryn Lee’s look at the strategic dimensions of Taiwan’s recent elections, or Andrew Davies’ most recent book recommendation.

See you tomorrow!
