Robust contributions and views are welcome, but publication is ruled by relevance and courtesy in expression of views. Begin views with DNP if publication is not wanted.

EDITOR'S NOTES:

Editor's Note 1: The International Cato Forum publishes articles viewed as being of enduring importance to present-day Australians, so publication dates will mostly be from the last fifty years but could be earlier if the argument made in an article is still powerful and relevant. Conservative readers who only want to view articles "hot off the press" are well served by the excellent publications "Australian/Spectator", "Quadrant" (Australia), "American Thinker" (United States), and "The Conservative Woman" (United Kingdom).

* Editor's Note 2:The editor James Kenneth Bowen created and has been managing for over twenty years two major websites dealing with military history. The International Cato Forum was only created in June 2022 and is very much a work in progress as a very large number of contributions have to be transferred, including from overseas sources.

* Editor's Note 3: Contributions become accessible when "READ" following a title becomes hotlinked.
