This book offers a significant and original contribution to
critical race theory. Georgie Wemyss offers an anthropological
account of the cultural hegemony of the West through investigations
of the central and pivotal constituent of the dominant white
discourse of Britishness - the Invisible Empire. She demonstrates
how the repetitive burying of British Empire histories of violence
in the retelling of Britain's past works to disguise how power
operates in the present, showing how other related elements have
been substantially reproduced through time to accommodate the
challenges of history. The book combines ethnographic and discourse
analysis with the study of connected histories to reveal how the
dominant discourse maintains its dominance through its flexibility
and its strategic alliances with subordinate groups.
