Abstract
SOARES, António Goucha. The Exit of the United Kingdom from the European Union. A One Last Push Agreement. Revista Crítica de Ciências Sociais [online]. 2021, n.126, pp.3-24. Epub Dec 31, 2021. ISSN 2182-7435. https://doi.org/10.4000/rccs.12390.
The article examines the withdrawal agreement between the UK and the EU following the Brexit referendum including an analysis of the role of the main political actors. Beginning with the negotiation strategies of both the UK and the EU, it then concentrates on the political tensions between the British Government and Parliament with respect to the latter’s approval of the agreement - as well as EU behavior throughout that dispute. The article also focuses on how courts were asked to settle disputes between the main branches of power on the issue of Brexit and proposes a critical view on the role of the stakeholders of the agreement, as well as a reflection on the collateral effects of this process.
Keywords : Brexit; European construction; international policy; political conflict.
