Anotace:	<P>The intensity of feeling that multiculturalism invariably ignites is considered in this timely analysis of how the ‘New Britain’ of the twenty-first century is variously re-imagined as multicultural. Introducing the concept of ‘multicultural intimacies’, Anne-Marie Fortier offers a new form of critical engagement with the cultural politics of multiculturalism, one that attends to ideals of mixing, loving thy neighbour and feelings for the nation.</P> <P>In the first study of its kind, Fortier considers the anxieties, desires, and issues that form representations of ‘multicultural Britain’ available in the British public domain. She investigates:</P> <P></P> <UL> <P> <LI>the significance of gender, sex, generations and kinship, as well as race and ethnicity, in debates about cultural difference </LI> <LI>the consolidation of religion as a marker of absolute difference</LI> <LI>‘moral racism’, the criteria for good citizenship and the limits of civility. </LI></UL> <P></P> <P></P> <P>This book presents a unique analysis of multiculturalism that draws on insights from critical race studies, feminist and queer studies, postcolonialism and psychoanalysis. </P>
