Has Britain found its role? / David M McCourt. - 2014

In 2015 Britain will publish the next stage of its Strategic Defence and Security Review which will update the 2010 SDSR. This paper discusses what the UK perceives as its role while acknowledging that this remains a fuzzy concept perhaps best described as "residual great power". Notes that there is wide consensus and support nationally and internationally for Britain's role, but also recognises the importance of relationships with the USA and France. Also considers what the next SDSR may contain.
