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"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000343104 650_0 $$aPopular culture$$zGreat Britain$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000343104 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xIntellectual life$$y20th century. 000343104 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xSocial life and customs$$y20th century. 000343104 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xSocial conditions$$y20th century. 000343104 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xCivilization. 000343104 7001_ $$aHiggins, Michael,$$d1967- 000343104 7001_ $$aSmith, Clarissa. 000343104 7001_ $$aStorey, John,$$d1950- 000343104 85200 $$bgen$$hDA110$$i.C253$$i2010 000343104 85642 $$3Contributor biographical information$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1010/2010023745-b.html 000343104 85642 $$3Publisher description$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1010/2010023745-d.html 000343104 85641 $$3Table of contents only$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1010/2010023745-t.html 000343104 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:343104$$pGLOBAL_SET 000343104 980__ $$aBIB 000343104 980__ $$aBOOK
