James Brocklesby

My expertise lies in the enduring legacies of European imperialism, with a particular focus on the British Overseas Territories. I explore the historical and geopolitical factors that explain why Britain continues to maintain control over these seemingly small and isolated 'dots on the map.' By examining their historical context, I aim to uncover the strategic, political, and cultural reasons behind their ongoing significance in global affairs
