Keyword(s) national security Australia accountability royal commissions surveillance intelligence Summary This chapter frames the development of Australian national security policies since the mid-1970s as part of a strategy of security governance. After outlining elements of Foucault’s governmentality thesis, the chapter navigates the governmental rationalities that have informed developments in the national security landscape. We observe a self-legitimating cycle of security expansion. This frequently validates enhanced coordination among disparate security agencies, which in turn requires enhanced mass population surveillance and the increased circulation of information about citizen activity with fewer legal constraints. We conclude by discussing how these rationalities of national security governance contribute to profound expansion of Australia’s national security structure that only marginally address key problems associated with the improving inter-agency coordination or limiting the erosion of citizen rights.
