This paper examines the potential of the UK to assume strategic leadership in Europe and toward the US. The author assesses the changing strategic environment, the challenges that the UK faces and the strategic responses that the UK may give. He argues that the re-emergence of a global balance of power demands of the UK a return to strategic leadership if the security of the state is to be assured in a complex environment in which state power is once again pre-eminent.
