During this period the UK downgraded political and especially human rights concerns to pursue economic gains. He explains this rapid shift by examining the dynamics of the government\u0026#39;s decision-making process - in 2012 Chancellor George Osborne won an internal debate, persuading PM David Cameron to delegate policy formulation to him personally to serve economic interests - a move that shut out those who advocated an ethical foreign policy and\/or were concerned about kowtowing to China. Even as criticism grew, Osborne\u0026#39;s singular focus on economic opportunities drove the government\u0026#39;s decisions on key issues. \u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EScott Brown\u0026#39;s primary research interests lie at the intersection between International Relations theory, Foreign Policy Analysis and US-EU-China relations.
