DEBATING MULTICULTURALISM IN THE U.K. REPRESENTATION AND ANALYSIS IN CINEMATIC TEXTS

Summary/Abstract: Continuous and various flows of immigrants (especially from the Indian subcontinent) to the UK throughout history have made the country a multi-ethnic, multi-faith one. The examination of multiculturalism in Britain focuses on the period starting with the middle twentieth century until the present. The article includes some of the major political views upon multiculturalism in connection to the individual, to communities and the large society, including some of the most infamous political speeches of British political figures. These views are utilised as analytical tools for the interpretation of feature films released in the U.K. in the 1990s-beginning of the twenty-first century.
