Briefings
We provide expert advice and analysis on the latest foreign policy developments.
The New Diplomacy Project publishes regular briefings that provide both detailed background and specific policy recommendations. These briefings are written by members of the executive committee alongside our network of researchers and policy specialists. Every paper is reviewed by external subject-matter experts. The views contained in them are those of the authors, not the New Diplomacy Project, our parliamentary supporters, or our advisory council.
Foreign policy responses to populism
Rising populist movements across the world have not only rewritten the rules of domestic politics, but increasingly influence foreign policy as well.
AUKUS: Security and foreign policy implications
Labour should welcome AUKUS in principle as a stabilising pact between liberal democracies, in a region which could experience rising tensions in coming years.
Afghanistan: Troop withdrawal and Taliban takeover
The situation in Afghanistan is worsening by the hour. It reflects a catastrophic miscalculation of the capacity and legitimacy of the Afghan government, and the resilience of Afghan forces.
Labour’s approach to the US–UK relationship under Biden
The US–UK relationship is often defined in terms of military and intelligence collaboration. This view however misses a number of other key elements that also layer and shape this relationship.
