We are at a watershed in our national security policy and in need of a deep sense of perspective on it. Bob Santamaria's book of essays and addresses, The Price of Freedom, first published by the ...Campion Press in Melbourne in 1964, provided an integrated view of Australia's national security from the point of view of The Movement, better known as the National Civic Council. However much one might disagree with a number of his opinions, that view, looked back on after almost forty years of extraordinary changes, seems to me to offer a useful foil to the thinking we need to do as we enter a new epoch.
In 1982 an article in the Bulletin recounted the opinions of a group of Liberal MPs about their then federal leader. The group (it was not then a faction) were labelled 'deregulators'. Their main ...interest was in cutting tariffs on textiles and motor vehicles - something the government was reluctant to do. The 'deregulators' saw Malcolm Fraser as someone who responded to 'pressure, not argument'. It was said of Fraser that he was 'a young old politician'. He had become prime minister in his midforties and was still relatively 'young', but his approach was 'old' - his economic policies were grounded in the protectionist 1950s and 1960s.
