Abstract
Defence strategists have developed a range of alternative defence strategies for Australia, but they point in different directions. Lockyer presents a conceptual framework for evaluating defence strategies; then applies this framework to the strategic options advanced by four leading Australian scholars and finds that no one option passes his test of 'good' strategy. Lockyer concludes by proposing a new Australian defence strategy that would pass his 'good' strategy test.
