Abstract
There are few studies dealing with the domestic determinants of Australia’s negotiating position in the Doha round. A majority of scholars focus on the impact of globalization on the Australian political economy (Cotton and Ravenhill, 2001; Kunkel, 2002; Oxley, 2003; Wesley, 2002), or deal with Australian foreign policy in general (Brereton, 2001; Downer, 2001; McDonald, 2005; Woolcott, 2005). Another stream of studies analyses the middle-power role of Australia in international relations (Capling and Nossal, 2003a;Cooper, 1992, 1997;Cooper, Higgot, and Nossal, 1993; Higgott and Cooper, 1990), bilateral trade relations between Australia and the US (Beeson, 2003; Capling, 2005; Findlay, 2002; Krever, 2006), the different emphases of Labor and Liberal-National governments’ economic policy responses on globalization (Conley, 2001; Leigh, 2002; Woolcott, 2005), or on the role of Australia in the multilateral trade system (Capling, 2001). Other studies focus on state-society relations in general or in the specific field of agriculture (Botterill, 2005; Trebeck, 1990; Warhurst, 1990). However, the few studies dealing with domestic-level variables are limited to analysis of the Uruguay round negotiations (Capling, 2001; Cooper, 1997).
