Summary
The British referendum on the membership of the European Union on 23 June 2016 was a cataclysmic event in British and European politics. Years later the consequences are still unknown. This collection seeks to answer the key questions relating to the consequences of Brexit and the future of Britain. Will Brexit affect the British constitution? Is Brexit likely to lead to the breakup of the UK – with Scotland and Northern Ireland seeking independence? How will Covid-19 delay lingering political questions brought on by Brexit?
These key questions and more, relating to both domestic and foreign policy, are answered by a range of contributors including expert academics, policy-makers and Members of Parliament and addresses both European and British policy-making.
Foreword
Addresses key questions related to Brexit and the future of both British and European Politics.
Additional text
Sophie Loussouarn has assembled a deeply talented set of authors to analyse the repercussions of Britain’s exit from the EU. Brexit has swept like a tornado through Britain’s politics and society with serious consequences. The breakup of the United Kingdom remains a strong possibility with far reaching implications but at the same time the authors identify opportunities for the UK both in Europe and the wider world. Brexit and its Aftermath is a must read for anyone who wants to keep up with this fast moving process and its global impact.
