Zusammenfassung:	The 2016 Australian defence white paper is a curtain-raiser for the strategic path that Canberra is set to undertake in the next two decades. That path will include enhancing the alliance with the United States, including facilitating a greater US military presence in the South-west Pacific and increasing maritime strategic co-operation with Japan, France, India, Indonesia and New Zealand. This posture is a marked departure from the earlier defence white papers released in 2009, 2012 and 2013, which were reticent about greater strategic manoeuvring against Beijing’s maritime expansion. The geo-strategic Indo-Pacific orientation has helped in bringing about the grand strategic alliance.
