Imperial Nostalgia

Product Description

This book recognises and tries to understand the resurgence of the ghosts of empire in the early 21st century UK.

It historicizes what we think of when we think of empire, contextualising imperial nostalgia as a response to national and cultural crisis; it shows how nostalgia has been part of how we imagine the empire from its inception; it gives a polemical overview of the intense debates occurring over how the empire should be taught and remembered; and it examines, in a punchy and accessible manner, some of the ways in which our national discussions around race, gender and class are shot through with the psychic ghosts of the empire and the structures and motifs of imperial nostalgia.
