  • Britain enters the era of Brexit

    Open AccessDenis MacshaneARTICLEInternational Affairs2021Cited by: 2

    In the decade after the 2008 financial crisis, the arrival of more hard-right politics in Europe gave rise to a new conventional wisdom by academics and commentators on politics: that identity was replacing ideology as the main driver in modern electoral politics. The two major votes of 2016, for Donald Trump and for Brexit, seemed to confirm that thesis. With the passage of time, however, the assumption that populist identity politics would cons…

  • Ernest Bevin: Labour's Churchill

    Open AccessDenis MacshaneARTICLEInternational Affairs2020Cited by: 2

    The first act of William Hague on becoming foreign secretary in 2010 was to remove from his resplendent red leather office the small bust of Ernest Bevin, his predecessor between 1945 and 1951. It would be an interesting parlour game for retired diplomats to rank British foreign secretaries over the last century and see where Hague and Bevin would feature. By almost any yardstick, the role of foreign policy in the tumultuous years after 1945 plac…

  • Brexiternity: The Uncertain Fate of Britain

    Denis MacshaneBOOKBrexiternity2019

    Never in the lifetime of most British adults has there been such uncertainty about the future of the political and governing institutions of the state. Brexit has the potential to change everything - from the shape of government institutions, to the main political parties, from Britain's relationship with its near neighbour Ireland to its international trading. The idealists of the Leave campaign won their vote in 2016. But now the realists are g…

  • New state, modern statesman: Hashim Thaci—a biography

    Denis MacshaneARTICLEInternational Affairs2018

    When the Irish writer Ethel Voynich published The gadfly in 1897 about a romantic revolutionary in the Italian Risorgimento her book was a resounding success. It was read in Mountjoy Prison by Irish republicans in the war of independence against British rule and was wildly popular in Russia, China and Iran. Today, however, we barely recognize the role of the individual as an agent of historical upheaval unless they are grand old men of destiny li…

  • Brexit: How Britain Left Europe

    Denis MacshaneBOOKBrexit2016

    The book establishes marriage as a pervasive idiom for the construction of collective identity in Syria, which is appropriated by individuals, sects, states and intergovernmental organizations alike. Its conclusions are relevant to scholars of Middle East studies, sectarianism, anthropology and politics.”

  • Workers and Their Unions in Eastern Europe: May 1991

    Denis MacshaneARTICLELabour / Le Travail1992

    What was the state of the labour movement in Eastern Europe on May Day 1991? There were no May Day parades in the former communist bloc. The red flags have been furled. The working class is in virtually total disarray in terms of a political project or coherent organization. The trade union movement ? though really one can no longer speak of it in the singular ? is fragmented and dispersed. To be a worker or a trade unionist of any hue in Eastern…
