En tiempos recientes, cerca del 29 de marzo de 20192, los convulsivos acontecimientos de Brexit y el espectro de una retirada sin acuerdo han polarizado el panorama político en el Reino Unido y ...Europa. El último Consejo Europeo extraordinario, que se reunió precisamente el 10 de abril de 2019, concedió una prórroga, con el fin de permitir la ratificación del acuerdo de retirada, que “no debería superar la duración mínima necesaria y en ningún caso el 31 de octubre de 2019”. Este trabajo intenta analizar cómo Reino Unido debe garantizar los derechos fundamentales en su salida de la Unión Europea.
The 2016 referendum marked a watershed moment in the history of the United Kingdom. The public vote to leave the European Union (EU)—for a ‘Brexit’—brought an end to the country’s membership of the ...EU and set it on a fundamentally different course. Recent academic research on the vote for Brexit points to the importance of immigration as a key driver, although how immigration influenced the vote remains unclear. In this article, we draw on aggregate-level data and individual-level survey data from the British Election Study (BES) to explore how immigration shaped public support for Brexit. Our findings suggest that, specifically, increases in the rate of immigration at the local level and sentiments regarding control over immigration were key predictors of the vote for Brexit, even after accounting for factors stressed by established theories of Eurosceptic voting. Our findings suggest that a large reservoir of support for leaving the EU, and perhaps anti-immigration populism more widely, will remain in Britain, so long as immigration remains a salient issue.
Le Brexit, par son ampleur, emporte de nombreuses conséquences juridiques parmi lesquelles la question de l’accès aux soins. Bien qu’un accord de sortie ait pu être trouvé entre l’Union européenne et ...le Royaume-Uni, des problémes se posent encore quant à la protection sociale des résidents européens et britanniques.
Brexit, by its magnitude, has many legal consequences, including the issue of access to healthcare. Although an exit agreement has been reached between the European Union and the United Kingdom, problems still arise regarding the social protection of European and British residents.
Il fenomeno della Brexit ha portato diversi cambiamenti, di natura sia politico-sociale sia linguistica. Dal 2012, anno della creazione del neologismo, da questo termine ne sono stati coniati diversi ...altri, atti a definire i protagonisti e le implicazioni di tale evento. Questo studio si concentra su tre composti – hard Brexit, soft Brexit e smooth Brexit – che designano tre possibili realizzazioni dell’uscita del Regno Unito dall’Unione Europea. Lo scopo è quello di confrontare le definizioni di tali termini fornite da due glossari istituzionali, quello del Parlamento inglese e quello del Parlamento europeo – entrambi denominati Brexit Glossary, con le definizioni reperite nel Brexit Corpus, un corpus giornalistico di testi raccolti dal web e disponibile sulla piattaforma SketchEngine. I dati dimostrano che le definizioni dei tre termini analizzati non sono completamente coerenti e che i processi che descrivono non sono del tutto trasparenti e chiari agli utenti.
Trade policy and negotiations have lain at the heart of the Brexit process. Initial UK trade policy has been characterised by: (1) the need to limit the impact of changes in trading relations (mainly ...with the EU) to minimise challenges for businesses and the possibility of economic losses; (2) a strong ideological commitment to free trade, and related to that; (3) symbolic and 'placebo' actions designed to show that the UK can enact an independent trade policy. Negotiation of free trade agreements (FTAs), thus, became a priority of trade policy. This article explores how approaches to FTAs have evolved, focusing specifically on post-Brexit FTAs with Australasia. Overall, the desire to complete speedy agreements has at times trumped business and societal interests, and precluded the development of a coherent long-term UK FTA vision, revealing the symbolic motivation of being seen as 'delivering Brexit' behind the initial years of post-Brexit trade policy.
