The politics of Englishness provides a digest of the debates about
England and Englishness and a unique perspective on those debates.
Not only does the book provide readers with ready access to and
interpretation of the significant literature on the English
Question, it also enables them to make sense of the political,
historical and cultural factors which constitute that question. The
book addresses the condition of England in three interrelated
parts. The first looks at traditional narratives of the English
polity and reads them as variations of a legend of political
Englishness, of England as the exemplary exception, exceptional in
its constitutional tradition and exemplary in its political
stability. The second considers how the decay of that legend has
encouraged anxieties about English political identity and about how
English identity can be recognised within the new complexity of
British governance. The third revisits these narratives and
anxieties, examining them in terms of actual and metaphorical
'locations' of Englishness: the regional, the European and the
British.
