On 16 March 2021, the UK government unveiled its vision for the UK’s role in the world over the next decade and beyond in its Integrated Review (IR) of Security, Defence, Development and Foreign Policy. The review dealt with all aspects of international and national security policy, including defence, diplomacy, development and national resilience. Taken together, these provide the first indication of how the current government might navigate the increasingly uncertain and dangerous post-Covid-19 world.

This panel will examine the IR and its wider implications for the European and international order from a range of different perspectives. Through the lens of their own academic research, panellists will discuss Britain’s future relationship with China and the EU, the outlook for inter-departmental strategic collaboration within Whitehall, and the role of artificial intelligence in future British national strategy.’
