Inner Empire: Architecture and Imperialism in the British Isles, 1550-1950

This book presents for the first time a coherent analysis of the British Isles as an imperial setting understood through its buildings, spaces, and infrastructure. It considers ’internal’ colonisation and its infrastructures of order and suppression, alongside wider relationships between architecture, imperialism, and cultural identity.
