Description: In this acclaimed study of British statehood identity and culture Tom Nairn deftly dispels the conviction that the Royal Family is nothing more than an amusing relic of feudalism or a mere tourist attraction. Instead he argues that the monarchy is both apex and essence of the British state the symbol of a national backwardness. In this fully updated edition Nairn's powerful and bitterly comic prose lays bare Britain's peculiar pseudo - modern national identity which remains stubbornly fixated on the Crown and its constitutional framework the parliamentary sovereignty of Westminster.
