Reviews
The authors use previous historical events to understand future challenges in the UK after Brexit, by examining three previous "Brexits" as moments of change: the end of Roman Britain, the Henrician Reformation, and the Elizabethan Settlement. They identify 14 propositions to change frameworks to drive success and make the UK the number one innovative economy globally in a Brexit context, derived from past experience and Brexits and combined with today's landscape. They discuss the current landscape of the UK; critical factors key to the success or failure of the domestic economy based on analysis of the outcomes and consequences of the three previous Brexits; the role of smaller firms in innovation and success; the impact of Brexits on various industries, and its risks; various perspectives on Brexit; and actions for coping with Brexit shocks. -- Annotation (c)2018 * (protoview.com) *
