They concerned the joint Anglo-Australian guided missile project. Recently-released archival files reveal the intense anxiety, bordering on panic, that this security breach provoked in Canberra and London. The article places this reaction against the background of a long-term quest by Britain and Australia to convince the United States to restore wartime co-operation in the field of atomic technology and lift its embargo on the transmission of classified information. By unraveling, for the first time, the story of the Woomera spy case, the article illuminates issues of security, defence preparations and Anglo-Australian relations. 2001 published Routledge 10.1080/714002895 http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/714002895 22001 2 2266597 dark_document 22001 Menzies, Macmillan and the 'Woomera spy case.pdf application/pdf 5103b08b79e9ad0c01191939dafb0747 MD5 117539 2017-10-27 03:43:24 1341 1 1 application/pdf text Paper en staffonly
