In the last episode of this series of the Mile End Institute Podcast, our Deputy Director, Dr Karl Pike, talks to Dr Liam Stanley from the University of Sheffield about his new book, Britain Alone: How a decade of conflict remade the nation, which was published by Manchester University Press earlier this year. Beginning with the global financial crisis of 2008, Britain Alone explores how a decade of 'austerity' as well as immigration and the hostile environment, nostalgia, race and the 'left behind', and the Covid-19 pandemic shaped Britain. Karl and Liam's conversation builds on these cultural, economic, and political themes and traces the 'complex nationalist path' that Britain found itself on after 2008.
