The British debate about Maritime Air Power in the 1960s Gjert Lage Dyndal Doctor of Philosophy dissertation 2009 University of Glasgow Department for History Supervisors: Professor Evan Mawdsley and Dr. Simon Ball 2 Abstract Numerous studies, books, and articles have been written on Britains retreat from its former empire in the 1960s. Journalists wrote about it at the time, many people who were involved wrote about it in the immediate years that followed, and historians have tried to put it all together. The issues of foreign policy at the strategic level and the military operations that took place in this period have been especially well covered. However, the question of military strategic alternatives in this important era of British foreign policy has been less studied.

Militärhistorikern, fil dr Arne Stade kommenterar Carl X Gustaf som brevskrivare och framlägger ett antal brev från denne till drott­ ning Hedvig Eleonora. Då konungens brev är synnerligen svåra att läsa, har det ansetts vara motiverat att publicera dessa tolkningar. I en posthum uppsats av kommendör Magnus Hammar diskuteras brittisk maritim strategi under de senaste hundra åren. Kapten Arvid Cronenberg tar sedan upp frågan om förhållandet mellan lantmannapartiet och föreningen Värnpliktens Vänner under försvarsdebatterna i mitten av 1870-talet. Forskningschefen, fil dr Thede Palm publicerar några anteck­ ningar om borggårdskrisen 1914 av general Jochum Akerman, ned­ skrivna i anslutning till publiceringen av professor Axel Brusewitz bok "Kungamakt, herremakt, folkmakt" (Sthlm 1951).

Drawing on the expertise and wider networks of the Defence Studies Department of King’s College London, and based at the Joint Services Command and Staff College in the UK Defence Academy, the Corbett Centre is already a leading centre for academic expertise and education in maritime and naval studies. It enjoys close links with several other institutions, both academic and governmental, that have an interest in maritime matters, including the Developments, Concepts and Doctrine Centre (DCDC), the Naval Staff of the Ministry of Defence and the Naval Historical Branch. The centre and its publishing output aims to promote the understanding and analysis of maritime history and policy and to provide a forum for the interaction of academics, policy-makers and practitioners. Books published under the eagis of the Corbett Centre series reflect these aims and provide an opportunity to stimulate research and debate into a broad range of maritime related themes. The core subject matter for the series is maritime strategy and policy, conceived broadly to include theory, history and practice, military and civil, historical and contemporary, British and international aspects. As a result this series offers a unique opportunity to examine key issues such as maritime security, the future of naval power, and the commercial uses of the sea, from an exceptionally broad chronological, geographical and thematic range.

  • MB1/I Mountbatten Papers: First Sea Lord, 1955-9
    1 MB1/I Mountbatten Papers: First Sea Lord, 1955-9 Mountbatten became First Sea Lord in 1955, fulfilling his ambition to succeed to the post that his father had held and which he had been obliged to resign in 1914 on account of the German origins of the Battenberg family. The First Sea Lord was the professional head of the navy, under the First Lord of the Admiralty, who was its political head. In practice, the latter seldom overruled the former on professional matters. Both were responsible to the Minister of Defence, as were the other two service ministries. The professional heads of each service, the Chiefs of Staff, met regularly to discuss service matters and to advise the government. Towards the end of Mountbatten's period of office as First Sea Lord, changes began to take place in this administrative structure. Macmillan felt that the Minister of Defence did not have enough control over the three service ministries to co-ordinate them properly. He therefore reduced the role of these ministries and increased the power and size of the Ministry of Defence. To strengthen this centralised structure, the chairman of the Chiefs of Staff committee was to be made Chief of Defence Staff, with his own organisation under him. On has appointment as First Sea Lord, Mountbatten was faced by a round of defence cuts, and was to be confronted with more when Duncan Sandys was appointed Minister of Defence in 1957. He decided that the navy had to become more efficient and to develop a higher profile if it were to resist such cuts.
