This book provides an accessible and timely analysis of how the
British discourse on Europe has evolved over the past forty years.
It focuses on three key episodes: the 1975 referendum on the UK's
continued membership of the European Economic Community; the 1992-3
debates on ratification of the Maastricht Treaty; and the more
recent proto-referendum debates sparked by David Cameron's
Bloomberg speech in January 2013. Using a discourse-analytical
approach, the book analyses how political and media voices seek to
delineate a British sense of self from a Continental other.
Importantly, the book also pays close attention to the rising
prominence of immigration issues within the British discourse on
Europe.
