Syllabus:	This unit examines some of the problems created for modern Australia and Asia, about how imperial rule was established, maintained and then withdrawn. In South Asia, the end of British rule created the states of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. The end ofDutch rule led to the emergence of the modern Indonesian state. European intervention in China hastened the end of the Chinese empire, the emergence of Chinese nationalism and the communist state. A hurried British withdrawal from Palestine contributed to the complex problems of the modern Middle East. The countries examined may vary, but the unit will provide a solid introduction to studies of globalisation and the contemporary world.
