About the book
"After Raymond Williams: Cultural Materialism and the Break-Up of Britain has two broad aims. The first objective is to re-examine the concept of cultural materialism, the term used by Raymond Williams to describe his theory of how writing and other cultural forms relate to general social and historical processes. Using this theory, the second objective is to explore the material ways in which contemporary British writing participates in one particular political process - that of the break-up of Britain." "This volume is not only a detailed look at some of the writing produced in Scotland and Wales in the years surrounding political devolution, it also includes a look at the ways in which different sub-cultural communities use fiction to renegotiate their relationships with the British whole."--Jacket.
