Brexit for European Section students
A presentation for European Section students of the political situation which led David Cameron to announce an in-out EU referendum for June 23rd 2016.
The history of the EU
The history of the European Union began with important figures like Robert Schumann and Jean Monnet in the 1950s who pushed for greater cooperation between European countries in the aftermath of World War 2. This led to the 1957 Treaty of Rome which created the European Economic Community between Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and West Germany. Over subsequent decades, more countries acceded to the EU and the various communities merged, with trade increasing sixfold between members by 1968 when customs duties were abolished. Key events and leaders, such as Charles de Gaulle, Helmut Kohl and Boris Johnson, helped shape the EU's development into the modern organization addressing issues like climate change, the Middle East peace process and more.
Brexit 'will blow hole in budget', EU commissioner warns
The UK will be taking money from the budget, the EU is warning - at the same time that the bloc will have new outgoings.
Brexit- A currency off an Exit
These slides were done prior to the vote, but what is obvious is the fact Sterling is the last man to stand against parity to the USD in historical terms, maybe its time for it to go below parity!
UK's Economy
The document provides an overview of the economies of the four countries that make up the United Kingdom - England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. It summarizes key industries and economic statistics for each country. England has a large service sector focused in London, while Scotland's economy relies on oil/gas production and manufacturing. Wales' economy includes manufacturing and agriculture. Northern Ireland's economy includes agriculture, though it still suffers from past sectarian violence.
Treaty of rome
The Treaty of Rome was signed in 1957 and established the European Economic Community (EEC) and the European Atomic Energy Community (EAC). It was signed by West Germany, Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg and the Netherlands. The treaty aimed to create a European common market and economic union through common laws and free movement of goods, capital, services and people. It entered into force on January 1, 1958 and formed the basis for today's European Union. The UK initially refused to sign due to its trade ties with colonies, unwillingness to join a customs union, and not wanting to transfer sovereignty to supranational institutions.
Foundation of the European Union
The document summarizes the key events leading to the formation of the European Community from 1945-1957. After World War 2, there was renewed interest in forming a united Europe to prevent future wars and foster cooperation. The European Coal and Steel Community was formed in 1951 between France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg to integrate their coal and steel industries. In 1957, the Treaties of Rome established the European Economic Community and Euratom to create a common market and coordinate nuclear energy research in Europe. This laid the foundation for increased economic and political integration across Europe.
Post-mortem: Brexit
A brief look at history of EU, EU makeup and Brexit, how it may affect Britain, Europe and the rest of the world. We will be dissecting some EU Policies including single currency and its effects...
Of course, all from a systems thinking point of view.

Brexit
The document discusses Brexit and its potential impacts. It provides background on the formation and expansion of the European Union from 6 members to 28. Brexit refers to Britain's exit from the EU. Potential impacts of Brexit on the UK include issues around jobs, immigration, and trade. A Brexit could also have broader global economic impacts and put the future of the EU into question. India may see impacts such as inflation from a stronger dollar and negative effects on Indian firms and markets, but also opportunities for increased foreign investment.
Brexit
The document discusses what Brexit is, the current Brexit scenario, effects of Brexit on Britain and the global economy, and challenges in implementing Brexit. Specifically, it notes that Brexit refers to the UK withdrawing from the EU following a 2016 referendum where 52% voted to leave. It is currently scheduled to occur on March 29, 2019 but could be delayed. Economists argue Brexit will likely reduce UK income and trade, costing the UK economy billions annually. Implementing Brexit faces challenges regarding the Irish border, fisheries, and passing the EU Withdrawal Bill through Parliament.
EU Overview
The document summarizes key information about the European Union (EU) including its history, membership, policies, and issues. The EU began as economic cooperation between 6 countries after World War 2 and has since expanded to 27 member countries with 500 million people speaking 23 languages. It has a single market and common policies on trade, agriculture, and regional development. While the EU aims to ensure freedom of movement, it faces economic issues related to integrating new members and responding to debt crises in some eurozone countries.

The Restructuring and Privatisation of Coal in the UK. Lessons for Ukraine
The document discusses the privatization of the coal industry in the UK in the 1990s. It describes how falling coal demand, new gas capacity, and earlier colliery closures led the government to drastically reduce coal capacity through closures. The remaining mines were split into regional companies and standalone collieries, which were then privatized through competitive bidding. The government retained mineral rights and historic liabilities, licensing private owners to extract coal. The privatization process involved producing information on the assets and completing sales by the end of 1994, but the value achieved was small compared to the industry's book value and restructuring costs.
8. traditional branches of industry in great britain
The Industrial Revolution began in Britain in the 18th century, leading manufacturing to dominate the economy for nearly two centuries. However, since the 1950s, the majority of jobs have shifted to the service sector, particularly in banking, finance, and tourism. Today, key industries also include automotive, aerospace, oil and gas, though farming and manufacturing still contribute as well. The UK has a large labor force with low unemployment and a diversified economy centered around services.
Life in Scotland before the war
Life in Scotland in 1910 was centered around the British Empire, of which Scotland was an important part. Glasgow was a major industrial center and economic powerhouse, though its dominance was threatened. Politically, the Scottish Labour Party advocated for social reforms to improve housing, healthcare, and education for all. However, Scotland faced significant problems as well, with poverty, poor living conditions, and struggling industries. While Scotland benefited economically from the Empire and industries like shipbuilding and steel, changes were needed to address social issues as the country entered the period leading up to World War I.

European union
The European Union began in 1950 with the goal of promoting peace and economic cooperation in Europe. It has since grown to include 28 member states and over 500 million citizens. Key milestones included the establishment of the European Coal and Steel Community in 1950, the European Economic Community in 1957, and the adoption of the euro currency by many member states. The EU aims to promote values of unity, solidarity, democracy and human rights through policies that enable free movement of people, goods, services and capital across Europe. While critics argue it reduces sovereignty and imposes austerity, proponents counter that the EU has boosted economic growth, employment, trade and development for member states.

The Maastricht Treaty of 1992 formalized European integration by establishing the three pillars of the European Union - European Communities, Common Foreign and Security Policy, and Justice and Home Affairs. It laid the groundwork for the euro currency and greater political and economic integration in Europe despite facing challenges from the economic crisis and lack of public support in some countries.

Lecture 11 economy of the uk
London is Europe's largest financial center and one of the world's top three alongside New York and Tokyo. The UK economy relies heavily on services, especially financial services centered in London, which accounts for about 73% of GDP. Manufacturing now makes up only about one-sixth of the economy compared to its previous importance during the Industrial Revolution, which began in the UK and drove its rise as a global economic and imperial power through the 19th century. The UK has transitioned to a primarily service-based economy led by sectors like banking, insurance and tourism, with London as a major global hub of business and commerce.
Sunynee part
Brexit refers to Britain's withdrawal from the European Union, which 52% of British voters chose to do in a June 2016 referendum. Theresa May became the new Prime Minister and set up departments to oversee Brexit negotiations. Reasons for Brexit included concerns over EU interference in the economy and high unemployment in the EU. Potential gains of Brexit include less regulation, budget savings, and new trade deals, but losses could include tariffs, loss of single market access, and decreased investment. Brexit may impact the UK economy by affecting trade, foreign investment, immigration policy, and currency value.

Brexit
1) The Brexit referendum results showed that England, Wales and the UK as a whole voted to exit the EU, while Scotland and Northern Ireland voted to remain.
2) Leaving the EU will have implications for Britain, Europe, and the global economy. It could lead businesses to relocate from the UK to EU countries to avoid tariffs, and reduce Britain's influence in worldwide trade negotiations.
3) Key drivers for the Brexit vote included concerns over immigration levels from Eastern Europe, the EU's handling of the refugee crisis, and a belief that the UK's laws and policies should be made in Britain rather than Brussels. However, leaving the EU may also damage the UK economy by disrupting existing trade relationships
Brexit-The Exit from EU
The document discusses Brexit and its potential economic impacts. It begins by explaining that Brexit refers to the 2016 UK referendum to exit the European Union. It then discusses the history and purpose of the EU, the economies of EU countries, and the potential negative economic effects of Brexit for both the UK and India, including lower trade, investment, and economic growth. In the aftermath of the Brexit vote, there is political instability in the UK and calls for other countries to potentially leave the EU as well.
Brexit
Brexit refers to the UK's withdrawal from the European Union. The UK held a referendum in June 2016 to decide whether to remain or leave the EU, in which leaving won by a small margin. This started the Brexit process. Some of the key reasons for Brexit included concerns about EU immigration levels and the loss of UK sovereignty and control. The economic and business impacts have been mixed, with short term instability but a recovery for the pound and some measures. Negotiating the terms of Brexit has been challenging and the future UK-EU relationship remains uncertain.
Brexit
Brexit is an abbreviation for "British exit," referring to the UK's decision in a June 23, 2016 referendum to leave the European Union (EU).
Eurotheysaidit
Politicians and experts made bold predictions that remaining outside the Eurozone would hurt the British economy through less investment, trade barriers, and relative economic decline compared to Eurozone members. They argued inward investment and jobs would decline as international companies preferred locating in Eurozone countries. Some said joining the Euro would help save the City of London from permanent decline and bring economic benefits by fully participating in the EU single market. Others predicted over time public opinion would change as people saw the success of the Euro on the continent.

Brexit
The document discusses Brexit, which refers to the UK's potential withdrawal from the European Union. It provides background on the EU and how the UK joined in 1973. It outlines reasons for Brexit related to economics, immigration, and identity. If the UK leaves, it may negatively impact trade as the UK currently benefits from free trade with EU countries. Leaving could also weaken the British pound and increase costs for UK families from higher import prices. The UK has until March 2019 to negotiate its exit from the EU under Article 50. [END SUMMARY]
The EU Referendum - what's the big deal
World First's chief economist, Jeremy Cook, talks about the history of Britain in Europe, the arguments for and against Brexit, and what impact it will have on businesses.
Britain and Brexit
Dr. Adam Bronstone presented a comprehensive, insightful brief on Brexit and the historical background and context to a TNWAC Global Town Hall in January 2019. This detailed examination of British-European relations through history up to the current Brexit troubles provided an excellent grounding in understanding this complex issue.

Brexit. A clever portmanteau that crept into the language of European politics around 2012, following the example of “Grexit,” when observers thought Greece was slipping out of the Eurozone. It has since evolved from a political football of the “remainers” and “exiters” to a political nightmare for the British government and their European Union colleagues.
The “exit” is a result of a referendum in the United Kingdom on June 23, 2016 in which 71.8%f eligible voters turned out to render a 51.9% to 48.1% result, calling for the UK to separate from the EU. Britain which had been in the EU since 1973 when the bloc was called the European Economic Community, invoked Article 50 of the treaty starting the countdown to the divorce — set for March 29, 2019.
In the interim the UK and the EU have talked about their respective futures after Brexit but much is left to be decided with little time left to negotiate the thorny issues that remain. And in the case of Brexit if not everything is decided then nothing is decided.
How did the UK and the EU get to this point? Where are they now? Where are they going? What does it mean for the United States? To get to the nut of the problem we asked Dr. Adam Bronstone to join us for our January 17th Global Town Hall at Belmont University. He is an expert on European politics and as a UK university doctorate holder has focused much of his attention on the Brexit issue — not many others stayed up to 4 a.m. to follow the referendum results.

European Union
The European Union has gone through many changes over its 57 year history, starting as the European Coal and Steel Community in 1950 with 6 founding members and growing to 27 members today. It was established to regulate trade and form a single market, and later took on goals like environmental protection, human rights, and asserting its role globally. Key events included the introduction of the Euro currency in 1999 and the expansion of membership over the decades through various treaties.

Adam Smith rejected the mercantilist view that wealth came from gold and silver. He believed that a nation's wealth came from goods and services. Smith argued for free trade between nations and less government intervention in the economy. Brexit refers to the UK leaving the European Union, as supported by 52% of voters in a 2016 referendum. Leaving the EU could negatively impact the UK and European economies through increased trade costs and tariffs, as well as effects on currency exchange rates, jobs, and foreign investment.

brexit-from-across-the-channel
1) A Brexit vote could negatively impact the EU economically and politically, though the direct economic impact may be manageable. It could spur anti-EU political movements in other countries and weaken the EU's global standing.
2) The negotiations around disentangling the UK from the EU would be complex and take several years to complete. Key issues would include the UK's budget contributions, trade relations, and regulations.
3) There is political and economic integration between the UK and EU that would be difficult to unwind, though the UK seeks to reduce immigration and budget contributions which conflict with EU principles. The outcome is uncertain.
Brexit presentation
The document discusses the impacts of the UK leaving the European Union (EU). It begins by providing background on the EU, including its origins after WWII and current makeup. Brexit is then defined as Britain's potential withdrawal from the EU. Reasons for Brexit include interference from the EU and UK tax payments to the EU. Potential economic impacts identified include effects on UK jobs, small businesses, GDP, foreign investment, and economic regulation. The currency could also be affected with the pound falling versus other currencies. Trade may be impacted by reducing free access to EU markets and exclusion from EU trade deals. Society may also feel costs if import prices rise and average households lose estimated annual benefits of £3,000 from EU membership.

EED - The Container Port PERFORMANCE INDEX 2023
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
