DESCRIPTION
Contemporary Britain is home to one of the most diverse societies in the world and nowhere exemplifies this diversity to a greater extent than the global city of London. As immigration remains one of the most hotly contested issues in Britain today, this course provides a vital framework in which to understand the contemporary social and political landscape. The course will explore how Britain, and London in particular, have been transformed by the processes of immigration and the creation of multicultural communities. Students will discover how diversity shapes and defines our understanding of modern Britain, reflecting on prominent communities and their remarkable impact on British culture. Through a focus on Black British, South Asian, Muslim, Jewish, and European migrant groups, the course investigates how various groups of immigrants have created new homes and identities in Britain, and the challenges they faced.
