Britain's International Role, 1970-1991 Hardback
by Prof. Michael Turner
Part of the British Studies Series series
Hardback
Description
How does one of the world's greatest powers preserve its status and influence when international conditions are unfavourable and its resources do not match its commitments?
This was Britain's burden in the 1970s and 1980s when the international order was transformed.
Much became unsettled and Britain had to adapt policy to suit new needs and opportunities. Michael J. Turner elucidates the efforts that were made to maximise Britain's role on those matters and in those parts of the world that were of special importance to British strategy, prosperity and security.
He examines key decisions and their consequences and places British policy-making in an international context, suggesting that British leaders were more successful in preserving power and prestige on the world stage than has sometimes been appreciated.
