Why Human Security Matters: Rethinking Australian foreign policy

by Dennis Altman, Robyn Eckersley, Joseph A. Camilleri

Book Overview

Sea level rises pose a greater long term threat to Australia's coastline and major capital cities than a military attack by a foreign power. Citizens are more likely to experience a pandemic virus than a nuclear threat. Food shortages have already occurred as a result of flood or drought, and the tentacles of international trade in drugs, money laundering and human trafficking already reach far into Australian communities.
