Dilemmas of Decline - British Intellectuals and World Politics, 19451975

“This ambitious book reevaluates the currents of British thought in international relations in the first three decades after the Second World War, a period during which the United Kingdom was adjusting to its diminished status in the international system, a consequence of its declining power and the loss of its overseas empire. Innovative, purposeful, and clearly argued, it makes a serious contribution to disciplinary history in international relations.” David Long, Carleton University

Riassunto

In just three decades, Great Britain's place in world politics was transformed. In 1945, it was the world's preeminent imperial power with global interests. This book assesses their responses to this predicament and explores the different ways British thinkers came to understand the international relations of the postwar period.
