Anglo-American Relations and Decolonisation, 1961-1968

The focus of my research is on decolonisation in the 1960s and how it challenged the Anglo-American relationship. The case studies involved in this project will be the West Indies Federation, Rhodesia, and Cyprus. Overall, the purpose of this research is to add a major contribution to a growing field within Anglo-American relations and diplomatic history.

Thesis

The Anglo-American Relationship 1961-1968

I completed an undergraduate degree in History at the University of South Wales before I went on to work in the education sector as a teaching assistant. I then completed my MscEcon in International Relations where I submitted a dissertation on American foreign policy. Following this, I worked in insurance, finance, and local government. I am now pursuing my doctoral study on Anglo-American relations and decolonisation in the 1960s.
