<description>‘Books on Brexit’ is a podcast for anyone interested in the UK and the EU. Our guest authors represent a range of views on how we got here, and future prospects for the UK and UK-EU relations. They include: Michel Barnier, Philip Cunliffe, Stefaan De Rynck, Peter Foster, Brigid Laffan, Mary C. Murphy and Jonathan Evershed, and Robert Tombs.

In this eposide, we are joined by John Erik Fossum, Christopher Lord and Merethe Dotterud Leiren who are co-authors, with a number of other colleagues, of the book ‘Norway’s EU Experience and Lessons for the UK - On Autonomy and Wriggle Room, published by Routledge. This book examines Norway’s affiliation to the EU and assesses the potential suitability of this arrangement for the UK post-Brexit. It also looks at the relationship between Norway and the UK.The book’s framework is the broader European context. Through an in-depth assessment of the Norway case, the authors ask how much autonomy and room for manoeuvre non-member states have when dealing with the EU. In doing so, the book provides insights about the post-Brexit European political order. And the books analytical framework of autonomy under complex interdependence has relevance well beyond the confines of the Norway case, including the UK, not least since the EU–UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) leaves considerable uncertainty.</description>

Robert Tombs, Emeritus Professor of French History and Fellow of St John’s College, Cambridge, is author of 'This Sovereign Isle: Britain In and Out of Europe', published by Allen Lane. In this succinct book, Robert Tombs shows that the decision to leave the EU is historically explicable by Britain's very different historical experience, especially in the twentieth century, and because of our more extensive and deeper ties outside Europe. He challenges the orthodox view that Brexit was due solely to British or English exceptionalism: in choosing to leave the EU, the British, he argues, were in many ways voting as typical Europeans.</description>
