Funded Activity Summary

A biography of Sir Paul Hasluck (1905-1993). Paul Hasluck is one of the most significant figures in post-war Australian history. This project will make use of a large body of archival sources, previously unavailable and unexamined, to evaluate Hasluck's roles as politician, diplomat, governor-general, historian, poet, commentator and policymaker. The expected outcome will be a nuanced political biography and an unusual and important case study of a conservative intellectual in Australian politics. Completion will coincide with the centenary of Hasluck's birth in 2005.
