This book presents a provocative argument which suggests that cultural devolution preceded and indeed forced political change. A postBritish form of culture as found across literature, education and philosophy has long been in the making, arising especially in local communities who no longer see themselves as British.The author places this change in the context of postimperial Britain in the second half of the20th century and looks at how underground cultures such as rave and reggae may have laid the foundations for a postBritish culture. The various attempts to reconstitutionalise Britain are explored and the book ends with two key questions: how has the progress of a postBritish culture been viewed in Scotland, and how do we pull a postBritish England out of a devolutionary process which is liable to outstrip all British control?Key Features:*The first serious account of the history of the growing cultural division within Britain in the second half of the 20th century.*Accentuates the cultural roots of devolution, bringing them out from the shadow of partypolitical explanations.*Looks at the effects of devolution upon both Scottish and English culture.
