- Summary/Abstract:The Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) can play a major role in a constantly changing world of economic interdependencies because of the potential and capabilities of the member countries. The size and high growth rates of several economies from Pacific Asia, North and South America enhance integration efforts undertaken at both the political and economic levels. This article describes the role of Commonwealth members in the building of Trans Pacific Partnership. From the very beginning of the integration, Commonwealth member states were in the majority and had a decisive influence on the actions taken. The desire to increase cooperation in the field of economic relations, and the liberalization of world trade were also the basis for creation of Commonwealth, as it was stated in The Singapore Declaration of Commonwealth Principles, which defined the goals of the organization. The role of Canada and Australia was particularly analyzed because of their size and potential.

- Summary/Abstract:The Australia’s foreign policy traditionally focused mainly on the relations with the US has changed in recent years. The evolution of the balance of power in the global politics, felt most in the East Asian region, has led to the appreciation in the eyes of the Australian elite of partners from the immediate neighborhood. PRC, currently the most important economic partner of Canberra, but also traditionally the biggest threat to the regional balance of power, aspires to play a key role in the South Pacific. Through the establishment of free trade agreements with countries of the ASEAN and with this organization separately, Australia is trying to provide a counter-balance for Beijing’s privileged position as a major trading partner. Another step in this direction will be elimination of taxes and tariffs in trade with South Korea and Japan. My essay examines the shift in Asian Australian foreign policy in recent years and illuminates the contents of documents, defining the economic and military strategy of the Australian government in new geopolitical circumstances.
