    War and Commemoration: 'The Responsibility of Empire'
    Damousi, J ; Schreuder, M ; Ward, (Oxford University PressOxford, 2011-10-03)
    Abstract This chapter examines Australians participating in British imperial wars and commemorations. It evaluates Australia’s role in different events from the Sudan expedition in the 1880s to the recent revival of interest in Anzac Day. It suggests that the memory and meaning of warfare in Australia is determined by local insistence on the reciprocal nature of Australia’s obligation to defend the Empire. This chapter also discusses the contribution of the Australian Imperial Force in World War I and the amalgamation of imperial loyalty and Australian achievement in World War II.
