Navigating Uncertainty

Extreme uncertainty is a Brexit catchphrase that applies fully to the UKs future trade relationship with developing countries - which includes many Commonwealth member countries - as well as with the remaining EU members. This compilation of essays offers timely and expert commentary on how a new UK trade policy towards the EU and developing countries could be designed and implemented. The essays unbundle complex issues and offer a context for the current debate, as well as providing a framework within which to assess and discuss the ongoing negotiations. The collection is based on a workshop that was held at the Commonwealth Secretariat in London in early 2017, as part of the Economic and Social Research Council-funded project entitled 'Governance and Economic Integration through Free Trade Agreements'.
