Recenzii
"Combining theoretical, historical and political science approaches and exploring both international and domestic contexts, this volume breaks new ground in explaining how and why the belief in Britain’s continuing ‘greatness’ has persisted so long and stymied attempts to shape a more realistic appreciation of Britain’s foreign policy options. As Britain prepares to forge a new international role outside the European Union, this book will serve as both the best single-volume introduction to recent British foreign policy and a valuable warning of the limitations of a foreign policy based on bluster and wishful thinking." – Alex May, University of Oxford, UK.
"British Foreign Policy Since 1945 provides an authoritative and comprehensive evaluation of the critical developments in British foreign policy in the post-war era. Tailored to the needs of lecturers, teachers and students of British politics, the book will facilitate a thorough understanding of the principal themes of British foreign policy - the main factors, events and issues by which foreign policy has been shaped. Garnett, Mabon and Smith provide a fascinating examination of the changes and continuities of British foreign policy." – Samantha Wolstencroft, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK
"British Foreign Policy since 1945 provides a rich and timely introduction to the past and present of UK foreign policy. It provides a detailed and carefully researched exploration of change and continuity in Britain’s approach to world politics from the early part of the 20th Century to the EU referendum of 2016. Accessibly written and with insights into theory and institutional structures, the book provides a very useful guide to understanding Britain’s efforts to define its role in the post-War world. Its chronological organisation allows readers to appreciate the connections between different phases of UK foreign policy, Britain’s shifting priorities and position in the world, and its path in an increasingly uncertain 21st Century global politics. The coverage of Brexit provides a pertinent analysis of what is likely to be a turning point for the UK. British Foreign Policy since 1945 is an authoritative work and key reading for students of British foreign policy." – Jonathan Gilmore, Kingston University, UK.
