This paper aims to study how an event, happening within a political community characterised by a high level of interdependence, has an impact on the defence policy of its members. To do so, the paper focuses on British-Polish defence relations after Brexit. Indeed, the United Kingdom signed a defence cooperation agreement (dca) with Poland in 2017, which is the second with an EU/nato Member State (MS) after the Lancaster House treaty signed with France. This case-study questions the thesis positing that dcas are unlikely to happen between EU/nato MS as it would lead to overlaps and decoupling. It also determines to what extent this treaty is part of a British strategy to re-create a security network in Europe after Brexit to deter Russia, which is considered as one of the main threats for both countries. Finally, this study deals with the political uses of history. The research analyses how British and Polish actors select memory mines to consolidate friendship in time of uncertainty but also as a shaming strategy.

Mexico’s integration into the North American regional automotive industry is an outcome of nafta. This brought about Mexico´s insertion into regional value chains in the global automotive industry. The country now ranks as the seventh largest producer in the world owing to its attractiveness for foreign direct investment, cheap labour and proximity to the U.S. market. The nafta renegotiation and the emergence of the usmca resulted in a series of modified and stricter rules of origin. Among them, is a clause aimed at Mexico requiring that a percentage of labour content be paid more than $16 an hour. This article sustains that this clause will not really be a constraint for transnational auto companies’ desire to continue their investments and production of cars in Mexico. Rather, what could exclude Mexico from the international automotive production circuits is the upcoming technological change. In view of that, it is crucial that the government take steps to support the automotive innovation developments and the industry´s higher value-added phases.
