`The Empire Strikes Back'' will inject the empire back into the domestic history of modern Britain. In the nineteenth century and for much of the twentieth century, Britain''s empire was so large that it was truly the global superpower. Much of Africa, Asia and America had been subsumed. Britannia''s tentacles had stretched both wide and deep. Culture, Religion, Health, Sexuality, Law and Order were all impacted in the dominated countries. `The Empire Strikes Back'' shows how the dependent states were subsumed and then hit back, affecting in turn England itself.

The Empire Strikes Back? injects the empire back into the domestic history of modern Britain.

It takes as its premise the idea that the empire was integral to British state and society -not something off stage, which can be safely left to African and Indian history. It argues that the British developed a remarkably rich relationship with their empire that markedly extended the boundaries of domestic society. The book concludes by showing why the impact of the empire has become such a hot topic in recent years, and the influence this has had on how British people think about the society we once were, now are, and what wed like to be in the future.

Suitable for undergraduate courses in imperial history.
