In 1997, 30 years after the demise of Swinging London , Britain again seemed to be the centre of the cultural universe, with a thriving arts scene, a new Labour Government and a young and enterprising prime minister. Cool Britannia seemed to sum up the new spirit of the 1990s in the hip language of the 1960s. In this book, Clive Bloom offers a radical and controversial guide to the possibilities for intellectual life, popular culture, literary production and political authority in multi-cultural Britain in 2000 and beyond.
