Abstract
The chapter argues that the UK’s vexed relationship to its colonial past is a long-running issue which has become more urgent in the current crisis of the post-Cold War liberal consensus, and more open in the intensifying culture wars of the past ten years. Contextualising the imperial nostalgia within a global reactionary turn, it lays out the book’s approach as an exercise in memory studies which approaches imperial nostalgia as a structure of feeling and a symbolic vocabulary in contemporary politics and culture.
