  • The empire disintegrates
    Tomlinson, Sally

    Journal Article

    This short article comments on the Symposium in ERS vol. 37/10 in which current scholars revisited the book The Empire Strikes Back and its legacy. The article comments on the book's assertion that a historical background is necessary to understand the absorption of migrant labour into capitalist societies, and notes the prevailing ignorance of the history of imperialism in UK schools and society. It discusses the current assumptions that if schools teach 'fundamental British values', racial and religious conflicts will somehow be minimized.
