It explores the idea of Britain as a Great Power since 1945 to show how the Coalitions policies fitted into wider historical understandings of Britains role in the world. Drawing on a range of evidence from the time of the Coalition, it shows that this period was one of continued change in British foreign policy. The Coalition conducted the first strategic defence review since 1998, significantly reduced the funding allocations for defence and foreign affairs, raised overseas aid spending to record levels, engaged in overseas military action in two sovereign states (and were denied a chance to participate in another), as well as a wide array of other policies. This book argues that evaluating these events and the historical background of the Coalition is critical to understanding the current crises gripping British politics. Timothy J. Oliver is a Lecturer in British Politics and Public Policy at the University of Manchester, UK. He has teaching and research experience in British foreign and defence policy, international relations, and the Liberal Democrats. 001439734 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed September 22, 2021). 001439734 60010 $$aCameron, David,$$d1966 October 9- 001439734 60010 $$aClegg, Nick,$$d1967- 001439734 650_0 $$aCoalition governments$$zGreat Britain$$xHistory$$y21st century. 001439734 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xPolitics and government$$y2007- 001439734 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xForeign relations$$y1997- 001439734 651_6 $$aGrande-Bretagne$$xRelations extérieures$$y1997- 001439734 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001439734 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001439734 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aOliver, Timothy J.$$tCameron-Clegg coalition and Britain's role in the world.$$dBasingstoke : Palgrave Macmillan, 2021$$z9783030809942$$w(OCoLC)1264400512 001439734 830_0 $$aBritain and the world. 001439734 852__ $$bebk 001439734 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-80995-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001439734 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1439734$$pGLOBAL_SET 001439734 980__ $$aBIB 001439734 980__ $$aEBOOK 001439734 982__ $$aEbook 001439734 983__ $$aOnline 001439734 994__ $$a92$$bISE
