ⓘ SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP Les liens étroits qu'entretiennent la Grande-Bretagne et les États-Unis depuis l'époque coloniale, tant sur le plan culturel que sur le plan diplomatique, sont souvent désignés par l'expression "the special relationship" ("la relation privilégiée"). Par ailleurs, les liens forgés entre les deux pays à l'occasion des deux guerres mondiales et durant toute la guerre froide ont fait de la Grande-Bretagne l'allié privilégié de la super-puissance américaine. La "special relationship" connut son apogée durant les années 80, qui virent Margaret Thatcher adopter une politique résolument pro-américaine, au détriment des liens avec les partenaires européens de la Grande-Bretagne. Aujourd'hui, certains critiques reprochent au personnel politique britannique de s'aligner systématiquement sur Washington en matière de politique extérieure au nom de la "special relationship".
