{"product_id":"9781785903052","title":"British Foreign Policy After Brexit: An Independent Voice","description":"\u003cp\u003eBritish Foreign Policy after Brexit by David Owen and David Ludlow is, perhaps surprisingly, a book written by two people from different generations who voted on opposite sides in the 2016 referendum. One a politician, the other a former diplomat, they both have significant business experience in world markets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe authors demonstrate how Britain's global role and influence can be enhanced rather than diminished post-Brexit, with a diplomatic, security, development and trade agenda based on hard-headed realism, including a review of budgetary priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a firmly European country, they see the UK as a key player with Germany and France in the wider Europe, and a leader in security issues threatening the continent's stability. They do not regard the relationship with Moscow as inevitably confrontational, but believe strengthening NATO is essential and a top priority to contain Russia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the wider world, a reinvigorated UK-US relationship will be critical, but must accommodate differences in some core areas, e.g. in dealing with China. Furthermore, they see the UK's new aircraft carrier at the heart of a UN Rapid Reaction Force drawn mainly from Commonwealth countries, including Australia, Canada, India and New Zealand, and supporting operations around the globe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Biteback Publishing, Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47150198620400,"sku":"9781785903052","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781785903052_p0.jpg?v=1763729414","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781785903052","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
