At a time of alarming global instability, amid shocking terrorist attacks in Europe and mounting tensions between the USA and North Korea, a clear and focused foreign and defence policy is now more critical than ever. Now that departure is under way, what happens next?
Against this unpredictable geopolitical backdrop, Britain’s position in the world needs to be recalibrated to take account of a range of new realities. Now is the time to move forward, to define a positive, outward-looking role in this post-Brexit world.
British Foreign Policy after Brexit examines what lies ahead, encompassing a diplomatic, security, development and trade agenda based on hard-headed realism. Former Foreign Secretary David Owen and former diplomat David Ludlow, who backed opposite sides in the referendum, together argue that Britain’s global role and influence can be enhanced, rather than diminished, post-Brexit.
Yazar hakkında
David Ludlow's career has spanned both the public and private sectors. After stints in the British Embassy in Moscow at the end of the Gorbachev era, and at the European Commission working on economic restructuring in Eastern Europe, he spent two years working with David Owen at the International Conference on the Former Yugoslavia. Finishing his time at the FCO in the mid-1990s on the Russian Desk, he left government service to pursue a career in investment banking, focusing on emerging markets, initially in Central and Eastern Europe and later in the Middle East. Drawing on his experiences in both these career paths, he re-joined the civil service in 2013, heading UK Export Finance's business development activities until the end of 2016, when he left to pursue other interests.
