The ideology of American exceptionalism
For most American politicians and officials, American exceptionalism is the conviction that the United States is both different from and superior to other nations. There are distinctive strands within this overarching, exceptionalist discourse – conservative, neoconservative and liberal, for example – but what they all share is the unshakeable conviction that America is qualitatively different from all other nation-states, and that this differenc…
Australia's Aukus ‘bet’ on the United States
The AUKUS agreement to facilitate Australia's acquisition of nuclear-powered submarines has been described by its critics as a ‘bet' on the U.S. This bet entails serious risks for Australia. These risks include uncertainty around construction of the submarines; uncertainty around the U.S.'s long-term commitment to the region; and uncertainty about the future political trajectory of the U.S. These risks are compounded by the sovereignty-constraini…
The Aukus umbrella
In September 2021, Australia, the US, and the United Kingdom entered into a new trilateral security pact, AUKUS. Central to AUKUS is Australia acquiring nuclear-powered submarines, scheduled to begin delivery in the 2030s.

The rationale behind AUKUS emphasizes growing security challenges in the Indo-Pacific and …

As the years unfolded, descriptions of President Obama's foreign policy diverged significantly.

In our article, we question this interpretation, arguing that it does not do…

More law and more rights
This paper questions the view that children are just another disadvantaged group and that they need substantially more, or more varied, rights than they enjoy at present in the UK. It suggests there is a lack of appreciation of the consequences of current ‘rights’ advocacy, especially that which draws on the United Nations Convention on The Rights of The Child, and doubts whether a simple piling up of more rights will prove wise, workable or effe…
