The Antarctic Treaty System (ATS) has been a notably successful international collaboration that has fostered scientific discovery, environmental protection and--most of all--peace, while enabling national interest and endeavor. Published to coincide with the Antarctic Treaty's 50th anniversary, this record examines Australia's crucial contributions to the ATS throughout its history--including legal, diplomatic, historical, environmental, and scientific assistance. Filling the gap of Australia's involvement in Antarctic politics and diplomacy, this book will especially interest historians, policy makers, and international law specialists.
