Australian Journal of International Affairs
The Australian Journal of International Affairs (AJIA) was established in 1947 as Australian Outlook and is Australia's leading scholarly journal in this area.
AJIA is the journal of the Australian Institute of International Affairs (AIIA). Its forerunner is the Austral-Asiatic Bulletin, which was published from 1936 by the Victorian Branch of the Institute until the AIIA decided that it needed a journal "so that each branch of the AIIA could feel ownership of the publication."[1] It has been suggested that a focus on the Australian war effort and destruction of Europe during World War II made the focus on the "Asiatic" outdated and prompted the editors of the new journal to name it Australian Outlook.[2] Australian Outlook marked a shift in focus for Australian International Relations scholarship which until then, and reflected in the Austral-Asiatic Bulletin considered questions of the development of the internal territories of Australia, particularly the Northern Territory, as an "international" question.[3]
It is currently edited by Professors Ian Hall and Sara Davies at Griffith University. Earlier editors include Nick Bisley (La Trobe University), Andrew O'Neil (Griffith University), Michael Wesley (Griffith University), and William T. Tow (Australian National University).
