Narrative
He was the leading intellectual figure in the internationalist organizations which were linked, largely through the skills of Edward Dyason, in the Bureau of Social and International Affairs. Eggleston also resumed writing for British and Australian magazines and newspapers, on a scale far larger than his pre-war or early post-war work. He began research on Victorian and Australian public finance, and the political economy of statutory corporations. In addition to prolific newspaper articles and commentaries. ADB
