Explore the intricate social, cultural, and political forces that propelled the UK's decision to leave the EU and its profound consequences. This book, "Britain and Europe at a Crossroads," utilizes the conceptual framework of securitization, drawing on primary sources and rhetorical analysis to dissect how political elites cultivated fear, insecurity, and Brexit nationalism. Situating Brexit within broader shifts in international political thought, the book examines the rise of far-right politics and the critical juncture Britain and Europe now face: a choice between further neoliberal reform or transformative democratic and social renewal. Written by Andrew Ryder and published by Bristol University Press in 2020, this educational book provides a deep dive into the complexities of the Brexit era.
