Britain in the balance: The impact of British foreign policy during the Crimean crisis of 1853 to 1856 on the balance of power and Concert of Europe.

Bachelor thesis | Geschiedenis (BA)

In this paper the author examines British foreign policy during the time of the Crimean crisis through the lens of international relations, focusing on the balance of power and concert of Europe respectively. It does so by examining the foreign policy of the two succesive administrations during the crisis (Aberdeen's and Palmerston's) and how these fit into a framework of international relationships. Doing so, the author hopes to find that viewing these policies through a more 'technical lens' provides a new perspective on them.
