He served as Secretary of the Defence Department from 1970 to 1979, the last decade of his career, having previously served as Secretary of the Department of External Affairs (later renamed Foreign Affairs) from 1954 to 1965. Tange wrote this account in his last years. Controversies from his time in Defence, including those associated with 'the Tange report' and 'the Tange reforms', echo to this day, and it is still easy to identify both staunch admirers and vitriolic critics in defence and public service circles. One of the major themes implicit in this memoir is the extent to which his administrative decisions and policy advice in Defence in the 1970s were based on his experience in External Affairs in the 1950s and 1960s. This account shows what lessons he derived from that experience and how he applied those lessons when he, rather unexpectedly, became Secretary of the Defence Department."--Provided by publisher. 600 10 Tange, Arthur,|cSir,|d1914-2001. 600 17 Tange, Arthur,|cSir,|d1914-2001.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01666329 610 10 Australia.|bDepartment of Defence|xOfficials and employees |vBiography. 610 17 Australia.|bDepartment of Defence.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01800574 650 0 Civil service|zAustralia|vBiography. 650 0 National security|zAustralia|xHistory. 650 7 POLITICAL SCIENCE|xSecurity (National & International) |2bisacsh 650 7 Civil service.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00862730 650 7 Employees.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00909111 650 7 Military policy.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01021386 650 7 National security.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01033711 651 0 Australia|xMilitary policy|xHistory. 651 7 Australia.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204543 655 7 Biography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 Edwards, Peter,|d1945- 710 2 ANU E Press. 776 08 |iPrint version:|z9781921313851 830 0 Canberra papers on strategy and defence ;|v169. 914 ocn234317750 994 92|bCKE
