本論文は、リチウム、コバルト、レアアースといった重要原材料（CRM）のグローバルサプライチェーンにおけるオーストラリアの位置づけを分析。安全保障と持続可能性の目標の緊張関係、およびオーストラリアの資源リベラリズムが中国支配のサプライチェーンに組み込まれている現状を指摘。現実主義的な対応では国家安全保障を確保できないと論じる。
English
This paper examines Australia's position in the global critical raw materials (CRM) supply chain for lithium, cobalt, and rare earths. It discusses the tension between security and sustainability goals, and Australia's resource liberalism tying it to Chinese-dominated supply chains. The paper argues that Australia's pragmatic realist response does not guarantee national security.

日本のGX文脈において
本論文は、エネルギー移行に不可欠なCRM（リチウム、コバルト、レアアース）のグローバルサプライチェーンにおけるオーストラリアの位置づけを分析。日本のGX戦略においても、CRMの安定供給確保や中国依存からの脱却は重要課題であり、資源ナショナリズムのリスクを認識する上で示唆に富む。
In the global GX context
This paper contributes to the global discourse on critical raw materials for the energy transition, highlighting geopolitical risks and the security-sustainability nexus. It offers insights for supply chain diversification and resource governance, relevant to international efforts like the Minerals Security Partnership.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:GX researchers can gain insights into the geopolitics of critical minerals supply chains crucial for energy transition.
🏛政策担当者:Policymakers should note the risks of resource nationalism and the need for diversification of CRM supply chains to ensure transition security.
📄 Abstract（原文）
Australia stands to benefit from the current global security–sustainability nexus, or the convergence of Western actions to meet both security and sustainability objectives, which are centred around the supply of critical raw materials (CRM). Australia is the largest producer of lithium, the third largest producer of cobalt, and the fourth largest producer of rare earth elements resources in the world. However, Australia’s realist pragmatic response to increasing tensions between the United States and China over CRM, which is exacerbating the trend towards resource nationalism, does not provide assurance for its national security. The article examines Australia’s resource liberalism which has embedded CRM mining companies and exports in Chinese dominated global supply chains. Despite limited efforts to emulate the great powers in industrial policy and enthusiasm for joining Western-led agreements, these do not protect Australia from great power rivalry, nor does its resource liberal orientation through open investments, CRM exports, and partnerships ensure its national security.
