Published 22 Dec 2016

We are very pleased to announce the appointment of Professor Mark Beeson as the new AIIA Research Chair. Mark is professor of political science and international relations at the University of Western Australia and was co-editor of the AIIA’s recently released book, Navigating the New International Disorder: Australia in World Affairs 2011-2015.

At the same time, the AIIA would like to thank outgoing Research Chair Professor Shirley Scott for her influential role chairing the AIIA Research Committee. There has been strong AIIA engagement with the research community since her appointment in 2009, including the creation of the publication research grant and many other initiatives.
