The various stages of development that led to the creation of the European Union and questions regarding the United Kingdom's place in it are a continuing theme throughout these documents. The latter 1950's saw the Hola Massacre in Kenya and reports of significant racial tensions in the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland. The 1960's saw calls for NATO reform as concerns around the atomic bomb were heightened by bomb tests above the Pacific Ocean. The Vietnam War is also discussed here in some detail.
