| Abstract | Despite decades of negative historiography about the republican era, the period from 1900 to 1949 was characterised by engagement with the world at all levels of society. The pursuit of openness was particularly evident in four areas, namely in governance and the advance of the rule of law and
of newly acquired liberties; in freedom of movement in and out of the country; in open minds thriving on ideas from the humanities and sciences; and in open markets and sustained growth in the economy. Arguably the country was at its most open and diverse in its entire history on the eve of World War Two - in terms of politics, society, culture and the economy. |
