| description | Great Britain played a significant part in the endeavours directed at organizing the peace process in
the aftermath of the Second World War. A series of myths were consequently associated to its actions
and foreign policies-related decisions, myths that still surface to the present day in some areas,
especially with regard to London’s attitude towards Eastern-European countries. Our study proposes
a more nuanced approach of the events of the first post-war years, focusing primarily on the impact
the domestic situation of the Empire had upon its foreign policy decisions. Our research is based on
the recent contributions of several British and Eastern-European researchers who shed new light on
Great Britain’s attitude towards South-Eastern Europe. Our study discusses the factors that
influenced the foreign policy decisions taken by London with regard to that region, by attempting to
analyse the general framework from less explored perspectives. |
