Description
Great Britains European policy during the 1950s was not the abject failure as other scholars have portrayed it. Britain needed to re-evaluate its relationship with the Commonwealth, Europe, and Atlantic circles in the 1950s to reach the point where it could apply for EEC membership in the following decade. The 1950s were important in providing the impetus to revise Britains external priorities. In sum, beginning with the WEU plan and concluding with the FTA proposal, this period signaled a historical departure for Britain and for Europe and was not a reaffirmation of the status quo.
