In particular, this study examines the role of national identity in shaping both the formulation and articulation of arguments put forward by these opponents of Britain's policy.To date, studies of Britain's unsuccessful bid for entry have focused on high political analysis of diplomacy and policyPublic opinionGreat BritainNationalismGreat BritainHistory20th centuryGreat BritainPolitics and government1945-1964Electronic books.Public opinionNationalismHistory337.1/4Dewey Robert F(Robert Frank),1965-1055283MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465673803321British national identity and opposition to membership of Europe, 1961-632488572UNINA
