Seminar paper from the year 2022 in the subject Politics - Miscellaneous, grade: A (ECTS), , course: Foreign policy of countries in the world, language: English, abstract: The goal of the study is to provide a comprehensive description of the foreign policy of the United Kingdom on bilateral and multilateral levels. As we slowly approach the end of the first quarter of the XXI century, multiple challenges of global and regional level emerge. Contemporary international architecture faces serious shifts in multiple areas, including regional and global security, the growing issue of climate change, the rise of new powers and authoritarianism, global pandemics, emergence of new technologies, increasing importance of space and cyber-environment and many more. All this turmoil in international relations increases pressure on the global community and forces it to adapt to the new reality, where states become more competitive and are forced to choose sides, while simultaneously trying to prevent the growing disasters of the future. In the realm of European politics, a new power emerged at the end of this decade - the United Kingdom, which was seeking a new role in the multilateral global system after leaving the European Union. As the nation decided on Brexit, it began to face the biggest identity crisis since the end of the Cold War. As a result, a new foreign policy vision by the name of "Global Britain" emerged, paving the way for new opportunities and new challenges at the same time. This vision aims to expand the influence of the United Kingdom all over the globe, strengthen its resilience at home and abroad, make use of the country's leading Science and Tech sector, reassure its commitments to the principle of democracy, open and free trade, human rights and the rule of law, thus securing the county's position as a regional power with global ambitions and a true leader on the international stage.
