The fallout from Brexit and Covid-19, ongoing political turmoil,
economic decline and calls for a second Scottish independence
referendum make for deeply uncertain times in contemporary Britain.
What will the country look like in five years from now? Will it
even exist in its present form? Introducing you to all aspects of
British history, geography, society, politics, economy and culture,
this book guides you through the country's enduring features and
recent trends: -Growing racial, religious, national and cultural
diversity -Demographic shifts, including the move from a welfare
state to a stakeholder society -The altered balance of power among
government institutions, as the UK adapts to life outside the EU
-Shifts in economic policy, following the impact of Brexit,
Covid-19 and the war in Ukraine -Changing voter attitudes, with
questions raised about the balance between the major political
parties -The impact of social media and alternative communications
channels on media, culture and politics. With key data, further
reading suggestions and case studies on topics such as attitudes
towards the monarchy, regional inequalities and national cuisine,
Contemporary Britain is the ideal introduction for students and
interested general readers alike.
