- W2514897795 abstract "Playing on different notions of the virtual – the incomplete, the hyperreal, etc. – this essay looks critically at mediated discourses of multiculturalism across a variety of contemporary British texts (literature, film, news media, sociology, political memoir). After examining the historical background to multicultural policies in turn-of-the-century Britain, the essay assesses the ambivalent role multiculturalism plays in supporting social and cultural diversity within an increasingly dispersed political structure. Without dismissing the transformative potential of multiculturalism in Britain and, by extension, the ‘New Europe’, the essay argues that multiculturalism’s communitarian ideals continue to disguise a variety of social tensions: racial discrimination, even racist violence; inbuilt hierarchies of class and gender; the disparity between grandiose political ambitions and relatively modest constitutional reforms. Multiculturalism might be seen, in this last sense, as something of a test-case for a government increasingly accused of privileging style over substance, and of promoting a ‘New Britain’ in which established interests are protected, novelty jostles with nostalgia, and the millennial rhetoric of revolutionary change affords further evidence of the alliance between political opportunism and media spin." @default.
