The demise of the British Empire in the three decades following the
Second World War is a theme that has been well traversed in studies
of post-war British politics, economics and foreign relations. Yet
there has been strikingly little attention to the question of how
these dramatic changes in Britain's relationships with the wider
world were reflected in British culture. This volume addresses this
central issue, arguing that the social and cultural impact of
decolonisation had as significant an effect on the imperial centre
as on the colonial periphery. Far from being a matter of
indifference or resigned acceptance as is often suggested, the fall
of the British Empire came as a profound shock to the British
national imagination, and resonated widely in British popular
culture.
