This collection explores the role of imagination in strategy and public service through essays honouring Brendan Sargeant. Scholars and practitioners examine how creative thinking can help people understand uncertain situations, question inherited assumptions and connect ideas with policy choices.
Contributions discuss scholarship, authorship, Australian constitutional questions and the relationship between imagination and administrative practice. Case studies consider the Korean crisis, the Indo-Pacific, Australian defence policy and Nordic defence. Personal recollections sit alongside the analytical essays, and the volume concludes with Sargeant’s 2016 address to the Strategic and Defence Studies Centre. References and an index accompany the collection.
