Beskrivning
In 1945 Britain was still a world power. Increasingly, however, it had to adapt its international commitments to the financial limitations, technological progress and external challenges of the bipolar postwar world, especially during the premierships of Eden, Macmillan and Douglas-Hume from 1955 to 1964. Based throughout on newly accessible sources, the twelve chapters in this book analyse systematically Britain's foreign policy-making and its regional relationships in the world, thus providing the reader with a comprehensive overview of Britain's foreign relations during this crucial transition.

'...a lucid and scholarly volume, which can be read for information, insight, or pleasure.' - Albion 'This book is a valuable, challenging and comprehensive reappraisal of Britain's bid to keep a seat at the top table in the crucial Cold War years from 1955 to 1964. It will be essential reading for all students of Britain's international role.' - Anthony Adamthwaite, University of California, Berkeley
