Between Empire and Continent : British Foreign Policy before the First World War, Paperback / softback Book

Between Empire and Continent : British Foreign Policy before the First World War Paperback / softback

Part of the Studies in British and Imperial History series

Paperback / softback

Description

Prior to World War I, Britain was at the center of global relations, utilizing tactics of diplomacy as it broke through the old alliances of European states.

Historians have regularly interpreted these efforts as a reaction to the aggressive foreign policy of the German Empire.

However, as Between Empire and Continent demonstrates, British foreign policy was in fact driven by a nexus of intra-British, continental and imperial motivations.

Recreating the often heated public sphere of London at the turn of the twentieth century, this groundbreaking study carefully tracks the alliances, conflicts, and political maneuvering from which British foreign and security policy were born.
