Abstract

In Britain, today’s foreign policy makers speak of ‘pragmatism’ and the last Integrated Review placed three related ideas at the heart of foreign policy: sovereignty, security, and prosperity. These ideas are at odds with the concepts that underpinned the Department for International Development (DfID) and its successful approach to foreign issues. In fact, by prioritising concepts like sovereignty and security, and doing so without appropriate nuance, the hazy line between the domestic and the foreign becomes reified. Therefore, these contemporary ideas preclude successful engagement with global issues where previous ones emboldened it.
