After Brexit: Utopia or Dystopia?
Now that the UK has left the EU, what role should it play in the world? What is 'Global Britain', and is it a realistic project after the Covid-19 pandemic? What kind of relationship should the UK seek with its European neighbours? How serious are the tensions between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland on the question of the UK's future relationship with the EU, and do they threaten the union?
In this lecture series, leading figures from politics and academia share their reflections, and offer their hopes and fears.
Series convened by: Hussein Kassim, Professor of Politics, UEA, and Senior Fellow ‘UK in a Changing Europe’.
The series was held online in the spring of 2021. You can watch all events back now on the UEA Public Events YouTube Channel.
