Böcker av Krishan (University of Virginia) Kumar

The Making of English National Identity is a fascinating 2003 exploration of Englishness and what it means to be English rather than British. Drawing on historical, sociological and literary theory, Kumar examines the rise of English nationalism and issues of race and ethnicity from the Norman Conquest to the present day.

In the second edition of this classic study, revised with a new and substantial opening chapter, Krishan Kumar introduces and assesses the rival claims of three theories crucial to an understanding on contemporary social theory: the information society, post--Fordism, and post--modernism. .
