This is the first major attempt to view the break-up of Britain as
a global phenomenon, incorporating peoples and cultures of all
races and creeds that became embroiled in the liquidation of the
British Empire in the decades after the Second World War. A team of
leading historians are assembled here to view a familiar problem
through an unfamiliar lens, ranging from India, to China, Southern
Africa, Australia, New Zealand, the Falklands, Gibraltar and the
United Kingdom itself. At a time when trace-elements of Greater
Britain have resurfaced in British politics, animating the febrile
polemics of Brexit, these essays offer a sober historical
perspective. More than perhaps at any other time since the empire's
precipitate demise, it is imperative to gain a fresh purchase on
the global challenges to British identities in the twentieth
century. -- .
