    Economic and Diplomatic Impacts of the Belt and Road Initiative on Western Nations in Infrastructure Investment Competition: Evidence from Japan
    (Arndt-Corden Department of Economics, Crawford School of Public Policy, ANU College of Law, Governance and Policy, 2026-08-27) Shuhei Nishitateno; Yasuyuki Todo
    China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has driven a global surge in large-scale infrastructure projects. While existing research has focused primarily on the BRI's effects on economic outcomes in participating countries, such as investment, trade, and debt dynamics, its economic and diplomatic implications for Western nations that do not participate in the BRI yet compete with China in global infrastructure development remain underexplored. This study addresses this gap by examining how the BRI has affected Japanese overseas infrastructure projects and Japan's diplomatic engagement with BRI countries. Using an event-study framework within a staggered difference-in-differences design and a panel of 123 low- and middle-income countries from 2007 to 2020, we find that the BRI significantly crowded out Japanese infrastructure projects and reduced visits to Japan by political leaders from BRI countries. These effects are especially pronounced among countries geographically proximate to Japan and China, where competitive pressures are most intense.

    Challenging Anzac: Stories that don't fit the legend
    (NewSouth Publishing, 2026) Martin Hobbs, Mia; Holbrook, Carolyn; Beaumont, Joan
    The Anzac legend has shaped Australia’s national identity for more than a century. Yet many Australians’ experiences of war do not fit comfortably within this mythic narrative. In Challenging Anzac, leading historians explore these stories: diggers who contested the dominance of politically conservative veterans; soldiers whose war experience led them to later radical protest; military personnel denied recognition as Anzacs by their non-traditional service or behaviour; and men for whom the dissonance in their postwar lives was so profound that they took their own lives. Stories that deviated from the Anzac legend have been erased, elided and adapted to ‘fit’ the legend.
