Britannia Overruled: British Policy and World Power in the Twentieth Century

This pre-eminent overview of 20th century British foreign policy brings together the often separated histories of diplomacy, defence, economics and empire in a provocative reinterpretation of British decline. It also offers a broader reflection on the nature of international power and the mechanisms of policymaking. Suitable for 2nd and 3rd year undergraduates of Modern British History and British Politics, and as a supplementary text for courses in International Relations.
