      abstract = {"British culture today is the product of a shifting  combination of tradition and experimentation, national  identity and regional and ethnic diversity. These  distinctive tensions are expressed in a range of cultural  arenas, such as art, sport, journalism, fashion, education,  and race. This Companion addresses these and other major  aspects of British culture, and offers a sophisticated  understanding of what it means to study and think about the  diverse cultural landscapes of contemporary Britain. Each  contributor looks at the language through which culture is  formed and expressed, the political and institutional  trends that shape culture, and at the role of culture in  daily life. This interesting and informative account of  modern British culture embraces controversy and debate, and  never loses sight of the fact that Britain and Britishness  must always be understood in relation to the increasingly  international context of globalisation"--},
