Fighting For Britain? - Negotiating Identities In Britain During The Second World War

~~84,40€~~ 67,52€ 20% OFF

 This edited collection focuses on the negotiation of national, geographic and cultural identities during the Second World War among the constituent countries of the United Kingdom. Adopting a four nations approach, it contributes to our understanding of how pluralistic identities within the multinational state of Britain informed the functioning of Britishness during the conflict. In particular, it explores the ways in which Wales, Scotland and England related to the overarching concept of Britishness and analyses the relationships between Britain and the island of Ireland. This volume addresses wartime Britain as both a site of cultural contestation and of shared experience, exploring what «fighting for Britain» meant for those who served in the British armed forces as well as for those who did not fight in active combatant roles.

English Nationalism And Euroscepticism - Losing The Peace

by Ben Wellings

~~49,03€~~ 39,22€ 20% OFF

 This book seeks out the origins of contemporary English nationalism. Whilst much academic and political attention has been given to Englands place within the United Kingdom since devolution, the author argues that recent English nationalism actually derives from Britains troubled relationship with European integration. Drawing on political evidence from the former Empire, the debates surrounding EEC accession and the United Kingdoms ongoing membership in the European Union, the author identifies the foundations of contemporary English nationalism. In doing so, he adds an important corrective to the debate about nationalism in England, pulling our gaze out from the United Kingdom itself and onto a wider field. Far from being absent, English nationalism as we know it today has been driven by resistance to European integration since the end of Empire in the 1960s.

Britishness, Identity And Citizenship - The View From Abroad

~~72,61€~~ 58,09€ 20% OFF

 This volume is an exciting contribution to debates about identity and citizenship both in the UK and elsewhere. By examining the view from abroad, through popular cultural transmission, education, and travel and migration, the transnational nature of Britishness and the political and cultural dynamism of the concept and its contemporary relevance becomes apparent. The multi-layered relationships uncovered in this work have historically shaped both the transmission and reception of Britishness and continue to do so. The international group of contributors, from a range of disciplinary backgrounds, synthesise contemporary and historical debates about Britishness to offer a vital breadth to a debate that is becoming increasingly narrow and introspective in the UK.
