The Rising Powers Initiative added Australia to the list of countries included in our Research Database. RPI’s citation entries on Australia will be limited to its role in the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue (the “Quad” or “security diamond”) with India, Japan, and the United States, as well as its relevance in the Rising Powers’ regional foreign policymaking.

We’re working to include citations for works back to 2007, when the Quad was first pitched by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, and to add the tag where appropriate to existing entries in the database.
