Professor James Ker-Lindsay
The discussion will focus on the evolving modern international history of Britain, and London's place in that evolution. It will explore the tremendous changes that have taken place since the end of the Second World War as Britain has withdrawn from Empire. It will then examine the huge developments currently underway as Britain leaves the European Union. Finally, it will examine the possibility of a third major wave of change with the potential breakup of the United Kingdom.
