British Foreign Policy, National Identity, and Neoclassical Realism
Author: Amelia Hadfield-Amkhan
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers
ISBN: 1442205466
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
This groundbreaking study offers a genuinely multidisciplinary exploration of cultural influences on foreign policy. Through an innovative blend of historical analysis, neoclassical realist theory, and cultural studies, Amelia Hadfield-Amkhan shows how national identity has been a catalyst for British foreign policy decisions, helping the state to both define and defend itself. Representing key points of crisis, her case studies include the 1882 attempt to construct a tunnel to France, the 1982 Falklands War, and the 2003 decision to remain outside the Eurozone. The author argues that these events, marking the decline of a great power, have forced Britain into periods of deep self-reflection that are carved into its culture and etched into its policy stances on central issues of sovereignty, territorial integrity, international recognition, and even monetary policy.

Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1882 edition. Excerpt: ... ENGLAND RECOVERS. London is not England, and the fact was recognized by the patriotic men that now came to the front in the national councils of war. Moreover, the British Islands are difficult of subjugation, for a reason which every student of the map will recognize at a glance. Part of the manliest portion of the population lies in the north, and to advance in hostile force northward for so great a distance as would be necessary to conquer the entire island would be no easy task for any foe. As the days passed by, this appeared plainer and plainer. News came from abroad too that did not tend to sustain the once boisterous spirits of the French. The gallant Sikhs, Ghoorkas, Punjabees, and English were landed in Egypt, under the command of an experienced general from India--General Roberts--who had routed the French army in the neighbourhood of Cairo, and were driving the invader towards Alexandria with much rapidity. The English fleet, too, had never quite lost, by a happy piece of luck, the command of the head of the Suez Canal, and was coming through. Then news came of a great naval fight just off Alexandria, in which the old pluck of the British tar had as I serted itself, and although a loss of a couple of English ironclads was chronicled, the victory was with the Union Jack. Ships of war were coming homewards too from the Atlantic, and a very respectable fleet had been formed of the Channel and North American squadrons, with which much execution at sea was done, and by which Dover had been for several days incessantly bombarded. While, better still, the sturdy Britons of the north and the north-east had formed junction at York, and a large force was now moving southwards, to the relief of the two armies that had been cut off from...
