America and Britain in the 21st Century

Sir Nigel Sheinwald

In the annual Benjamin Franklin House lecture, Sir Nigel Sheinwald will discuss America’s and Britain’s changing roles in the world, will explain why a strong transatlantic relationship nevertheless remains important, and why international engagement by both countries remains in their, and the rest of the world’s, interests.  Sir Nigel is a senior British diplomat, who served as HM Ambassador to the United States of America from October 2007 to January 2012.

This event is sponsored by the Eccles Centre for American Studies at the British Library in collaboration with Benjamin Franklin House.
