Opis

This is a critical time for the relationship between Britain and Europe, as politicians debate the crisis facing the European Union and Britain s role within it. This second edition consists largely of new material that charts how recent political developments have changed the debate surrounding Britain s membership of the EU. Following the 2015 general election and with the promise of an imminent referendum on Brexit, the book now considers: -How has the renegotiation agenda shifted? -How are EU partners responding to threats of departure from Britain? -What was the impact of the 2015 general election? -What are the politics of a referendum on membership in 2017? - How can a pro-European case be made? By seeking answers to these questions, Roger Liddle assesses the impact of a series of miscalculated gambles by David Cameron and his forebears that leaves Britain teetering on the edge of an exit from the European Union."
