Thatcher & After explores the persistent reappearances of Margaret Thatcher, Britain's most loved and reviled Prime Minister, in contemporary British culture. Twenty years after Thatcher left office, Britain isstill struggling to come to terms with her legacy. This exciting and original volume reads Thatcher's moment as a profound and powerful rupture in British political and cultural life and argues that there is an afterlife to Thatcher and Thatcherism that requires address and even redress in the present. The urgent goal of this volume is to restore a Thatcherite past to a present that is increasingly forgetful and celebratory of Thatcher and to resist the growing conservatism in British life. Its contributors provide strategies and opportunities to resist in the present, howeverbelatedly, Thatcherism's all-pervasive policies - policies that can be seen problematically even atthe core of New Labour's ideologies. Through a range of essays, scholars of literature, culturalstudies, media studies, film and drama question what it means to be living in a post-Thatcher world.
