This book analyses the changing role of the British Foreign
Secretary and presents biographical case studies of all the
individual holders of that post, the policies they persued and the
issues they faced, since 1974. The work of the British Foreign
Secretaries from James Callaghan to Robin Cook is examined in the
context of the foreign policy-making machinery, the changing
environment of British foreign policy, and the internal and
external political forces with which they had to contend. Using a
biographical case study approach, the chapters examine the careers,
personalities, policies and influence of successive Foreign
Secretaries to increase our knowledge and understanding of the work
of the government, and the development of British foreign policy
over the last thirty years. British Foreign Secretaries Since 1974
casts light on the hitherto shadowy and understudied role of
personality in international relations and on how ten very
different personalities helped to shape the detail and the
articulation of British foreign policy.
