This is the first book to examine the relationship between English
nationalism, Brexit and 'the Anglosphere' - a politically-contested
term used to denote English-speaking countries sharing cultural and
historical roots with the UK. In the aftermath of the UK's EU
referendum some pointed to a 'revolt' of those 'left behind' by
globalisation. Ben Wellings argues instead that Brexit was and is
an elite project, firmly situated within the tradition of an
expansive English nationalism. Far from being parochial 'Little
Englanders', elite Brexiteers sought to replace the European Union
with trade and security alliances between 'true friends' and
'traditional allies' in the Anglosphere. Brexit was thus
reassuringly presented as a giant leap into the known. As the UK's
future relationship with the rest of the world is negotiated, the
need to understand this 'English moment' has never been more
pressing. -- .
