Oliver J. Daddow

Open publisher page 4 citations

Abstract

As David Cameron moves towards a renegotiation of the UK's terms of membership of the EU and an in/out referendum, he will confront a series of strategic challenges. Oliver Daddow argues that the prime minister will first have to develop a convincing pro-membership narrative against the backdrop of an EU in crisis and a widespread antimembership movement in the UK, given voice by a generally EU-hostile media.
