Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Foreign Policy of Great Britain The field of English history has been of late so vastly enlarged that it has become necessary to supply the public with numerous supplementary works dealing with its special departments. The present volume, commenced some years ago, attempts to trace one of these continuous threads in the warp of the history, and to draw it out, as far as possible, distinct from the general story of the nation. This, from the nature of the case, can only be an imperfect process. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

They were the object of fierce denunciations but of very little intelligent criticism. When both the British and Canadian Governments decided to republish that valuable document and distribute it broadcast throughout the Empire and the world at large, it never came to my mind that the duty of all loyal British subjects was to read it through the spectacles of jingoism and to draw therefrom only such conclusions as suited Imperialists and jingoes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of British Foreign Policy: From the Earliest Times to 1912 But I think the time has come for some such presentation of British foreign policy as a whole, and for an account of the continuous develop ment of that policy. It has often been necessary for Great Britain to prefer isolation to unsatisfactory alliances. On certain well-known crises in European history, however, the active intervention of England on the continent, in the interests of the European world no less than in that of England herself, has been demanded. The attempt of Philip Valois in conjunction with the Count of Flanders to destroy the trade between Flanders and England would, if success ful, have established French predominance over the Netherlands. This attempt was one of the causes of the Hundred Years' War. In the sixteenth century it was not till the danger of Holland falling into the hands of Philip II. Became imminent that Elizabeth took definite action. Again, about a hundred and fifteen years later, the seizure of the Barrier Towns by Louis XIV.

This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Foreign Policy Since the Second World War There are thus limitations on any government's freedom of action in any field of policy. Most of all is that true of foreign policy, a field in which no government is exclusively sovereign as it is in domestic policy. What happens in international affairs consists not merely of what is done or intended by the British Government, but of what is done or intended by many others as well. The British Government is not even free in reacting to what is done by a hostile power, because Britain has allies to consult and neutrals to consider and internal pressures to resist, as well as hostile actions to react against. This book is an attempt to examine all these forces separately and in combination. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book British Foreign Policy Since the World War Classic Reprint written by Chester E. Sipple and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-10 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Foreign Policy Since the World War It is inconceivable that a modern war which was of more than four years duration and which involved all the great nations and many of the lesser nations of the world should leave a powbility, in spite of the efforts of conservatives and reactionaries, of restor ing just as it was the old order of society, economics and politics. Many forces that are too weak to demand consideration before a war are given by an upheaval such as the world experienced from 1914 to 1918, a power that can not be disregarded. Old social and political forces may be deflected from their former courses, or trans formed, or even strengthened, by war. It is to be expected, there fore, that a post-war period should be marked by a conflict between the old, which was not entirely destroyed, and the new, which rises to proclaim the failure of the mien regime and to challenge the supremacy of the old order. A study of the aims, the ideals and the methods which determined the conduct of the foreign policy of one of the world's Great Powers during the first decade following the World War serves to confirm this statement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Foreign Policy of Sir Edward Grey 1906-1915 It is a characteristic of British politics that, even in times of crisis, there are always men to be found who will criticize severely their country's action and expound sympathetically the case for their country's enemies. I think we may well be proud of this characteristic. It is one that could only be found in a community which is highly civilized; whose heart is set on honourable dealing and not merely on success, and whose citizens in general trust one another and are free from panic. For these few who protest are not traitors, and no sensible person ever thinks they are. They may be right or wrong on the main issue; their motives may vary from the purest love of justice to divers degrees of prejudice or pigheadedness or personal pique. But they are never guilty, and never seriously suspected, of either treachery or corruption. No government ever persecutes them. No mob seriously maltreats them. They are unpopular, but nothing more. And certainly the present writer would be among the very last to judge any one harshly for being 'the friend of every country but his own.' He has too often been called that name himself, and has been proud of it. He is not going to blame any one for being 'pro-German' in the only sense in which the term can be fairly used; that is, of being anxious to state the case for Germany as clearly and fairly as possible, and to help us to understand our enemies. In the other sense, in the sense of wishing the Germans to win the war, there are, I believe, no pro-Germans among the sane inhabitants of Great Britain.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Home and Foreign Policy Ere this, industries have been prostrated, nay, annihilated, without any such results, and it was the height of folly, if not ignorance, to believe that thirty millions of British and forty mill ions of French were to rush into all the horrors of war for a few bales of Cotton; a calamity which in the course of nature, the army worm or caterpillar might have as well brought on. Distrustful as we are, not of the British people, but of the Brit ish government, we must state that England, which cannot be starved into war or even recognition by the want of Omtou, came never nearer making a hostile diversion in our favor as when the Pirate Wilkes insulted her ag by the seizure of Messrs.

Download or read book British Foreign Policy in Europe written by H. E. Egerton and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Foreign Policy in Europe: To the End of the 19th Century; A Rough Outline Ne sulor ultra crepidam is a wise maxim, to which the progress of time gives increasing authority. It may seem, then, to savour of presumption that one, whose work has been mainly concerned with colonial and imperial history, should embark upon the difficult waters of European politics. But, on the other hand, it must be remembered that, up to the present time, colonial and imperial history cannot be understood without reference to the European system from which it took its rise, just as a knowledge of a particular limb is impossible without some study of the body as a whole. 'The only begetter' of this volume was Mr. Philip Kerr of The Round Table, who, in conversation, suggested to me that there was room for a book#4 which, by dealing with British foreign policy apart from a narrative of events, should endeavour, without undue length, to put forward the views of past British statesmen. Unfortunately Mr. Kerr has been too busy for me to consult him during the progress of my work, so that I cannot say how far it fulfils the idea that was in his mind.

This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diplomacy and the Study of International Relations The conduct of foreign policy affects no people more vitally than the British. The nature of their constitutional system and the magnitude and complexity of the interests ultimately entrusted to their determination invest the electorate with special privileges and a special responsibility. The actual conduct of foreign policy must be committed to the hands of a few. But it is now clear to many who had given little thought to the matter before 1914 that there are grave dangers in keeping the bulk of the electorate uninstructed regarding the general characterand the imperious demands of our foreign connexions. Sir John Seeley drew attention 1 to the comparative neglect with which British historians of Britain had treated her foreign policy, and in a section of the present work 2 it is pointed out that writers on our constitution and on our political problems have treated very slightly of the manner of conducting the foreign policy of this country.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foreign Policy: England and the Eastern Question European States may be regarded as so many great landowners, whose mental characters are severally those peculiar to the nations of Europe, and who acknowledge no superior to restrain their caprices, nor any tribunal to judge their crimes. They have, indeed, customs; but they do not consider themselves under external laws. They make rules for their guidance; but whenever they deem it expedient, they elude those rules and customs by dexterity, or violate them by force. Yet nations have the same duties as the men of which nations are composed. The same moral law, - call it Natural law, or Divine law, but unchangeable, eternal, - is over nations as well as men, declaring their rights and forbidding wrong. All bodies politic may be regarded as individual men; and, as men are, so are they more often led by passion than guided by reason. From axioms true and maxims wise, they sometimes draw conclusions which are wild, and even grotesque. More often they wilfully invent, or carelessly accept principles which are false, in order to defend acts which are evil.

This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cambridge History of British Foreign Policy, 1783-1919, Vol. 1 Our readers will understand that, in the several chapters of this History, military and naval events, as well as the progress of parlia mentary legislation and administrative changes at home or in other parts of the empire, due to the influence of the Crown, of parties and movements in Church and State, and to the voice of public opinion and the Press, have been kept in constant view, without being themselves discussed. The successive stages of Indian and (british) Colonial history have in no instance been regarded as detached from that of Great Britain and Ireland. The narrative is throughout based on documentary evidence and has, so far as possible, been arranged in chronological sequence, though without any attempt, more especially in certain summarising sections of the later Volumes, to maintain a synchronistic system of dates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Great Britain's Sea Policy: A Reply to an American Critic, Reprinted From "the Atlantic Monthly" To take one small but significant point first. Mr. Bullard, like most people, sees the need Of continuity in foreign policy, and the great objec tions to a system in which a new government, or even a new influence at court, may upset a nation's course. -but he does not see that such continuity implies some sort of compromise. A continuous foreign policy in a country governed alternately by Foxites and Northites is possible only if both parties abate their extreme preten sions. And Mr. Bullard, if l'read him aright, expects it to be continuous F ox. As a matter of fact, we have had lately a continuous foreign policy in Great Britain, because Grey, while moving always as best he could toward arbitra tion, equity, and a cordial understanding with all powers who would agree to it, was felt also to be keenly alive to his duties as the steward of a great inheritance.
