Why nation states tell stories
Meet Ben O'Loughlin, a Professor of International Relations at Royal Holloway, The University of London. He’s a pioneer when it comes to academic research into strategic narratives – the stories nation states, organisations and others tell about themselves to ultimately influence the world we live in. He’s advised NATO, the EU and some branches of the UK government.
