<br/><br/> This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the opponents of Britain?s first attempt to join the European Economic Community (EEC), between the announcement of Harold Macmillan?s new policy initiative in July 1961 and General de Gaulle?s veto of Britain?s application for membership in January 1963. In particular, this study examines the role of national identity in shaping both the formulation and articulation of arguments put forward by these opponents of Britain?s policy. To date, studies of Britain?s unsuccessful bid for entry have focused on high political analysis of diplomacy and polic.
