At the zenith of GB power at the beginning of the 20th century there was a widespread recognition that GB's position in the emerging global industrial interstate system was increasingly precarious & that widespread adjustments would be needed. One solution, the "imperial federalism" of Seeley & Mackinder, proposed the political integration of the scattered British settler colonies into a "Greater Britain." Alternatively, Wells predicted that GB would become integrated into an Anglo-American "greater synthesis," & that Europe would be unified on "Swiss confederal" rather than German authoritarian lines. These proposals & prophesies were based upon interpretations of the changing material context composed of technology interacting with geography, & were seriously flawed. Extensive debates on these schemes indicate that the range of grand strategic choice was broader than that conceptualized by contemporary realism. The failure of GB national integration due to geographic factors & the endurance of the Anglo-American special relationship casts the roles of the nation-state & the Western liberal order in a new perspective.

The relationship between women's education & employment in GB & the dramatic changes in British family formation in recent decades are examined based on data drawn from the British General Household Survey. Increased cohabitation, reduced marriage, & delay in childbearing are found. Education is contended to be a powerful influence on the transition to marriage & parenthood among women. It is concluded that the current directions of economic & social change in GB predict a movement toward later & more varied patterns of family formation. 9 Tables, 5 Figures, 22 References. M.
