Description
At a comfortable distance from warfare, our culture easily passes over its horrific reality in favour of an appealing, even romantic spectacle of war. Yet, over the last decade, most Britons have opposed Western military ventures abroad. This book takes a fresh look at a culture of militarism in Britain, public resistance to it, and the government's increasingly prodigious efforts to regain control of the story we tell ourselves about war.ISBN:9780993095504
