The Second Try : Labour and the EEC

The Second Try: Labor and the EEC presents the constant interaction between external and domestic foreign policy and economic factors. This book serves as a specimen case-history to understand the relevant affairs in general. Organized into three parts, this book begins with an overview of the Labor Party's attitude towards problems of European unity, which is determined by the principles of democratic socialism. This text then discusses the policy of the six members of the European Economic Community to stress that in spite of all the well-known difficulties, they wanted to see Great Britain become a full member of the organization. Other chapters consider the implications for the laws and the legal systems of Great Britain. This book discusses as well the aspects of the European Treaties, which depend on the powers conferred on the Community institutions. The final chapter deals with the reestablishment of Great Britain's economic and monetary situation. This book is a valuable resource for students and teachers.
