Top ministers from the U.S. and Australia recently wrapped up consultations in Brisbane, Australia, with a goal to enhance military and security cooperation as the two countries continue joint military exercises with other countries. Warwick Powell, adjunct professor at the Queensland University of Technology, says, “Deterrence is not a substitute for a strategy for long-lasting peace.” He emphasizes the importance of focusing on building institutions that create the necessary conditions for enduring peace rather than adopting a narrow and militaristic approach that primarily prepares for war.
