Description and Table of Contents
Description
This new source book tells the story of Britain's hesitant moves into Europe, through a fascinating selection of recent documants from the Public Record Office, from diaries, memoirs and newspaper articles. The arguments on sovereignty and monetary union which helped destroy Thatcher and continue to threaten the stability of the Major government reach back in recognizable form to administrations presided over by Wilson, Callaghan, Macmillan and Eden and their responses to such problems is the central theme of this text. Through its introductory sections, the book provides an assessment of the debates and controversies surrounding Britain's attitudes towards European integration and a collection of source material for students of modern history and politics and for those who wish to have a wider understanding of Britain's place in the contemporary world.
