Abstract

This article examines the health, working and prospects of the Commonwealth from the perspective of the second decade of the 21st century. After a brief survey of the organisation’s history from the London Declaration, it comments on the Eminent Persons Group, the Commonwealth Charter, the Sri Lanka Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting and the role and attitude of the British government. It argues, against some recent critics, that the Commonwealth is not an organisation in crisis but one that has reached its maturity and is getting its second wind.
