"Multi-Ethnic Britain 2000+" provides an encompassing survey of
artistic responses to the changes in the British cultural climate
in the early years of the 21st century. It traces topical reactions
to new forms of racism and religious fundamentalism, to legal as
well as illegal immigration, and to the threat of global terror;
yet it also highlights new forms of intercultural communication and
convivial exchange. Framed by contributions from novelists Patrick
Neate and Rajeev Balasubramanyam, "Multi-Ethnic Britain 2000+"
showcases how artistic representations in literature, film, music
and the visual arts reflect and respond to social and political
discourses, and how they contribute to our understanding of the
current (trans)cultural situation in Britain. The contributions in
this volume cover a wide range of writers such as Graham Swift, Ian
McEwan, Zadie Smith, Jackie Kay, Nadeem Aslam, Gautam Malkani,
Nirpal Dhaliwal and Monica Ali; films ranging from Gurinder Chadha
s "Bend It Like Beckham" and "Bride and Prejudice" to Michael
Winterbottom s "In This World" and Alfonso Cuaron s "Children of
Men"; paintings and photography by innovative black and Asian
British Artists; and dubstep music.
