Britain is no longer the great power it once was. Caught between an unmoored America and a fractured Europe, it confronts rising authoritarian challenges from China and Russia, while its domestic debates drift into abstract moralising. Lacking a coherent vision for the future, the country risks sliding further into managed decline, its global relevance steadily eroding.Yet such a trajectory is not inevitable. In this clear-eyed assessment of Britains economic, ideological and strategic vulnerabilities, Azeem Ibrahim identifies the essential building blocks of renewal. He outlines a programme of reforms that will allow a genuinely independent Britain to capitalise on its core strengths. After all, as a lean and specialised nuclear power with one of the worlds most sophisticated intelligence networks, as well as world-class universities and a cultural reach second only to the US, the UK can still shape global affairs.A Greater Britain argues that a clear strategic anchor and bold leadership are needed if the UK is to convert its advantages into real influence. By formulating a pioneering Knowledge Power Doctrine, the book offers a global strategy for a once powerful nation, providing nothing short of a roadmap back to British greatness.

At a time when democracies seem paralyzed by fear and populations are turning inward, award-winning journalist John Kampfner travels to ten countries confronting our shared challenges with bravery and imagination.In Japan, he discovers inter-generational care homes ensuring dignity in later life - while Britain ducks the social care question. He visits Viennas century-old housing projects where 60% of residents live in subsidised accommodation without stigma and communities thrive. Taiwans health system achieves 90% patient satisfaction at a fraction of the cost of the NHS. From Moroccan solar panels in the Sahara producing enough clean energy to power two million homes to Finnish classrooms preparing children for an uncertain world that Britains teaching-to-the-test system cannot match - Kampfner introduces us to the people making radical change happen.These arent utopias. But what unites them is a refusal to accept that difficult problems are unsolvable. The countries showing true innovation are often those with their backs against the wall - not wealthy nations assuming they have all the answers. Braver New World is an urgent reminder that solutions exist. The question is whether we have the courage to learn.

A New Perspective for Biblical Justice in International Relations Practicing a Christian vision of justice as a citizen in ones own country is difficult enough. Add on the challenge of establishing and living out a Christian ethic among states, where there may be few established norms and shared values, and you have the gargantuan task of doing international relations.Does Christianity have anything to say about global justice for modern nation-states? Can we look to the biblical vision for help with the complex problems of a globalized world? Robert Joustra answers with a resounding yes.Christ and Covenant in Global Politics casts a compelling vision for a Christian approach to international relations that seeks to transform global politics from systems driven by fear to covenantal global community based in shared loves, drawing on Augustines understanding of rightly ordered loves and a contemporary Christian notion of covenantal pluralism. This groundbreaking textbook is designed for professors and students of international relations, offering a unique, faith-driven approach to global politics.In Christ and Covenant in Global Politics, Joustra introduces international relations through a distinctly Christian lens; demonstrates how the Christian worldview can positively shape international politics; equips students to thoughtfully engage with pluralism and multiculturalism in international politics; and moves beyond discussions of biblical justice within states toward discussions of biblical justice between and among states. Christ and Covenant in Global Politics is a first-of-its-kind work that provides a comprehensive introduction to the state of international relations theory today as well as a constructive account of a truly Christian vision for global politics. Joustra provides a systematic treatment of introductory political theology of world politics, then applies that foundation to key issues in the international system: diplomacy, war, political economy, and climate. Ideal for the undergraduate level, this book is a gift to those who to want to learn to love their neighbor on the global stage.

After four tense decades of the Cold War and a subsequent period of relative stability across much of Europe, is the continent once again under threat? And are Europeans prepared to face the growing risks and strategic challenges of the second quarter of the 21st century? This ISPI Report, crafted for both expert readers and a broader audience, traces the evolution of Europes defense architecture on two parallel tracks: the defense of Europe, fundamentally underpinned by NATO and shaped through its continual adaptation; and the pursuit of a distinctly European defense identity, increasingly advanced through the European Union. It examines the intersections, overlaps, tensions, and pivotal turning points in this dual process, exploring institutional and organizational frameworks, strategies and doctrines, missions and operations, as well as military and industrial capabilities. The storyline leads to 2025, a symbolic crossroads that may mark the end of one era and the beginning of another: a moment when Europeans will be called upon to assume full responsibility for their own security and defense. Will they rise to the challenge?
