The essays in this edited collection offer incisive and nuanced
analyses of and insights into the state of British cities and urban
environments in the twenty-first century. Britain's experiences
with industrialization, colonialism, post-colonialism, global
capitalism, and the European Union (EU) have had a marked influence
on British ideas about and British literature's depiction of the
city and urban contexts. Recent British fiction focuses in
particular on cities as intertwined with globalization and global
capitalism (including the proliferation of media) and with issues
of immigration and migration. Indeed, decolonization has brought
large numbers of people from former colonies to Britain, thus
making British cities ever more diverse. Such mixing of peoples in
urban areas has led to both racist fears and possibilities of
cosmopolitan co-existence.
