T.X. Hammes has a new article in The National Interest<\/i>, \u2018Sorry, AirSea Battle Is No Strategy\u2019<\/a> in which he argues that war with China won’t be won by deep strikes. Distant, defensive deterrence and blockades suit us better.<\/p>\n

Are the economic benefits of military primacy all they\u2019re cracked up to be? Dan Drezner has a new journal article<\/a> that challenges whether military preponderance has paid off for the US.<\/p>\n

There was a foreign policy battle of minds between the Foreign Minister Bob Carr and his Opposition counterpart Julie Bishop, hosted by the Lowy Institute on Wednesday.

There are some new Centre of Gravity papers, published by the ANU\u2019s Strategic and Defence Studies Centre, including one by C. Raja Mohan on recent China\u2013India border disputes and their security implications for Australia<\/a>, a second by Robert O\u2019Neill on the ADF in a post-Afghanistan era<\/a>, and a third by Admiral Dennis C. Blair on how Australia and the US should respond to China\u2019s recent assertiveness<\/a> (PDF).<\/p>\n

Lastly, some cyber news.\u00a0Bruce Schneier has published a thought-provoking piece on the US public\u2013private surveillance partnership<\/a>. He argues that it’s easier for the government to circumvent eavesdropping provisions in constitutional law by gathering data from corporations. He reasons that, as a result, the government is cautious to introduce any legislation that would limit private sector data collection.<\/p>\n

The Chinese hacking group APT1, linked to the People\u2019s Liberation Army by\u00a0Mandiant<\/a>,\u00a0has been caught trying to interfere with a decoy water control system in the United States. The ‘honeypot’ was established by\u00a0Kyle Wilhoit at\u00a0security company Trend Micro. Using cloud software the company replicated the log-in and configuration screens of real life municipal water plants. The attacks followed soon after, including from APT1.\u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Update: Brad Glosserman of Pacific Forum CSIS recently spoke at the ANU on the prospects for Japan’s economy under PM Shinzo Abe. An overview of the talk and podcast is available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
