Brief description Intercolonial networks of the Indian Ocean. This project falls within National Research Priority 4, Safeguarding Australia, specifically the priority goal Understanding our Region and the World. It will enhance Australia's capacity to interpret and engage with its local and global environment and shed new light on regional security issues through an innovative re-appraisal of its history and role both locally and internationally. It will document, highlight and potentially reactivate long-established but neglected trade linkages with India, an emerging economic giant, as well as other Indian Ocean countries. Consequent research collaborations and outcomes will strengthen intellectual relationships between Australia and the region, particularly India.
