The Brexit Club

From Brexiteer to Bregretter, what does the walk of shame look like when half the country is scuttling home, disheveled from a night of impetuous decision-making, wondering how they ended up in such a mess? 

In honor of our own American Brexit of 1776, we’ll do a post-mortem on last week’s historic U.K. referendum to leave the European Union. We’ll look at likely implications for the international order, the E.U., and the U.S.

Below are suggested readings to bring you up-to-speed:
