Britain beyond the Atlantic
Jon Wilson pages 157-169

Abstract

Labour is both a nationalist and internationalist party, which seeks to draw on the power of the state to coordinate economic and social life within the UK, while extending collective action and solidarity beyond Britain’s borders. Internationalism is often seen as a principle in tension with national sovereignty. This article argues that the square can be circled with recognition that the national state remains – as it has been since the late 1940s – the basic unit of international society. In a world of turbulence, a progressive state should want what it pursues for itself for other societies.
