The United Kingdom faces with two major federal constitutional
debates. The first is about the nations which comprise the British
state and hence the division of power between Westminster and
regional parliaments of Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. The
second surrounds the United Kingdom and the European Union. This
text explores the British engagement with the federal idea from the
early 1600s onwards, and sets contemporary discussions in context.
In the past four centuries, the British have often looked to the
federal idea as a possible solution to problems of the unity of the
United Kingdom and of the British Empire. This period has also seen
successful adoption of federalism by many countries, including
Britain's former colonial possessions. John Kendle examines the
break-up of the first British empire and the development of modern
federalism. As well as discussing the Anglo-Irish relationship and
the United Kingdom's relationship to Europe, the author focuses on
other contemporary issues such as the world order, imperial
federation and decolonization.
