However, there has been relatively little investigation into how uranium was understood and contested before this time. This paper draws on labour movement publications and other archival sources to reveal lesser-known antecedents to the anti-uranium movement in the decades following the Second World War. Opposition to uranium did not simply erupt during the turbulent 1970s. In the early years of mining and exploration, many unions shared a “uranium fever.” Opposition to the nuclear cycle was constrained by various factors, including official secrecy and the perceived separation between “peaceful” and “militaristic” uses of uranium. Nonetheless, even at the suffocating heights of the Cold War, many workers and unions articulated strongly held concerns about the metal fuelling the atomic age. From early disputes over miners' health and safety, to widespread demonstrations against French nuclear testing, uranium was a source of significant concern, anxiety and debate. Australia's anti-uranium movement of the 1970s and 1980s is therefore placed within an overlooked historical context.","PeriodicalId":45431,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Politics and History","volume":"71 4","pages":"735-752"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ajph.70005","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145646620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This “friendly invasion” constitutes a substantial neglected legacy of the conflict. Across dozens of oral history interviews and memoirs, US servicemen recall with fondness their week-long respite in a nation that was at once comfortably familiar and safely distinct. Their preconceptions of Australia were framed by racialised and sexualised imaginaries. Comforted by the prospect of spending time in a predominantly “White” nation, White Americans were candid about their desire to enjoy the company of Australian women. At the same time, perceptions of Australian racism and immigration exclusion framed the expectations of African American servicemen. Reality, however, was more complicated, and undermines easy assumptions. While Australian memory of the scheme centres on its supposedly dramatic role in Sydney's nightlife district, Kings Cross, the experiences of Americans were far more diverse than such narratives would suggest. Perhaps surprisingly, the experiences of African American and Latino servicemen in Australia were also frequently welcoming and non-discriminatory. Individual Australians were more colour-blind in their everyday interactions than their governments, reinforcing scholarly findings regarding the reception of Black servicemen during the Second World War.","PeriodicalId":45431,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Politics and History","volume":"71 3","pages":"399-415"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ajph.70000","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145196890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the case of the war in Vietnam, Australian men often interacted with local women on base, in civilian spaces, or in passing. Occasionally, couples would form private relationships and, in some cases, marry and return to Australia at the end of deployment. Vietnamese war bride marriages challenged Australian military norms and societal pressures. Despite having previously received little attention, these marriages—set against the Australian context of 1960s counter-revolutions, 1970s anti-war protests and continued anxieties around race nearing the end of the White Australia Policy—were indeed political. This paper is primarily concerned with the complex gender and racial dynamics of the intimate lives of soldiers and examines how couples met, courted, and married during the Vietnam War. This paper will address the ways marriages were controlled by military procedure, defined by the public and experienced by the couples themselves. Despite being small in numbers, historicising Vietnamese war bride marriages allows for a unique exploration of cross-cultural relationships during the war and shows how the intimate legacy of public military service interacts with the private lives of those deployed to Vietnam.","PeriodicalId":45431,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Politics and History","volume":"71 3","pages":"416-439"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ajph.70001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145196803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It examines how advisors identified underperformance among officials and officers in Phuoc Tuy and pursued either coaching or removal as solutions—efforts that were repeatedly undermined by cultural barriers, systemic corruption, and structural weaknesses within the Republic of Vietnam. The study argues that the RVN’s failure to develop and retain capable leaders was symptomatic of broader institutional failings, and that the limitations of the advisory model—combined with a flawed understanding of Vietnamese society and the complex wartime environment—contributed to a cycle of superficial progress and recurring setbacks. Ultimately, the experience in Phuoc Tuy challenges optimistic assessments of pacification success and illustrates the broader difficulties of nation-building during wartime.","PeriodicalId":45431,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Politics and History","volume":"71 3","pages":"460-478"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ajph.13067","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145196402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
