Although the military action was concluded fairly speedily, the Falklands War raised a host of questions which still exercise students of history and politics. What were the rights and wrongs of the dispute? Was the military response justifiable? How far could the Conservatives' victory in 1983 be attributed to the winning of the war? The book provides an account of the origins and resolution of the conflict, looking in particular at the political management of the crisis and the broad strategic factors which influenced its conduct as well as considering the wider political repercussions and implications for defence and diplomacy.
