Publications by Kim Beazley

Professor Kim Beazley has been appointed Chancellor of The Australian National University. He is currently Professor of Political Science and International Relations at the University of Western Australia, but is best known as a politician. An academic is judged by what they publish, so I ought I would do the same sort of quick check of Professor Beazley I would do of anyone else.

A search of the Political Science and International Relations site of UWA gives the bare minimum of information. Professor Beazley has a staff web page, but this just has his name and contact details, with no list of publications, research or courses. On the "Research Interests" page he is listed under Australian political institutions, Public affairs, Australian Government and Politics and Australian foreign policy and diplomatic history, Global and regional governance. But there are no details of research conducted.

The "Contact Us profile" page lists Research Interests as:
  • Defence policy
  • US alliance
  • Middle East
  • Foreign policy issues
  • Australian politics
  • Government
But again there is no actual research or courses detailed.

A Google Schollar search for Kim Beazley as an author produced 44 results (including some from another researcher of the same name in the conservation field). However, as he only took up his UWA position in 2007, there are no publications for that period. Also the list includes some references to Professor Beazley's father Kim Edward Beazley.

Excluding papers which are obviously from other "Beazley" leaves 26. These show a long term interest in defence and foreign policy and domestic public policy issues:
